Get Over Yourself
As a Jeep owner, you find yourself in a community of others who like the Jeep lifestyle. However, I happened to go to a Land Rover website and found Jeep owners bashing the Land Rover owners. “Hate†doesn’t always come from fear, but it most certainly comes from a lack of understanding.

Ending or Beginning?
Beautifully said. I know how hard it is to move on to another stage in your life but there is always something new out there, something more to learn, something more to teach another. All those skills you've learned and taught have a purpose and you never know when one of them will come in…

Firefighting Today Hangout
