  1. Why is it that I can't get friggin' SuperGlue to reliably glue anything, but if I drop jelly on the floor, no matter how much I scrub it, for the next three month my socks still stick to it?

      So, I glove up and smear glue all over it, and decide to hold it in place till it dries in 10-15min. BAD idea. The plastic melted, the glove melted, and there I was... finger solidly glued in place, up, over and to the side in the mirror. Glue ran down, and solidly secured the whole mirror to its pedestal. Took three people to get my hand out, w/o snapping the mirror back off. Therefore, I would recommend http://www.loctite.com/

      Funny story.. A bunch of us from the station had a party last summer, got totally wasted, one guy decided my mirror would be a good place to lean. B/c lets face it, leaning on something is a necessity when you're drunk. Snapped it off. The next morning, I decide to take it apart and glue it back on with Loctite. Get it back in place, spring back in, but the chunk-o-plastic has nowhere to go, and it's needed to hold the spring.

      Speaking of which.. I'll wanna see a ME signing the death certificate, next to the body, with a blown up photo ID, and proof from at least ten witness experts that can confirm the decedent is in fact the user.. before I'll believe that anyone else has died. Including DNA evidence.

      Need some free pills? ha ha My doctor gave me muscle relaxers, which I had an almost immediate allergic reaction to. Then tells me, well, just take an extra Tylenol. Like, gee, thanks for the $290 tip. Because I jammed an epipen into my leg thinking it was going to be a "BAD" reaction.

  7. Has anyone owned a jeep liberty or a ford explorer sport? im buying a new (used) car and im between these two.

    1. Chief1C

      Chief1C

      I had an explorer sport. The back space was kind of a waste. It's not big enough to really haul anything, and the tonneau cover thing isn't totally water proof. But it's basically an SUV that looks like a pick up. Go with a wrangler.

  11. Help! I failed the agility test for an ambulance company I really want to work for. I did everything perfectly until they asked us to lift a 210 pound dummy with a 50 pound sandbag on his chest on a LBB. I could do it fine w/o the sandbag. With it I couldn't get it more than a foot off the ground. I have 5 weeks to retake it. Any suggestions on workouts/muscle groups to work on?

      I would ask for a radio, and call for lifting assistance. Because the number one time-loss injury is EMS... Is back injuries.

  12. Just what is Carnauba Wax?

    1. Chief1C

      Chief1C

      Not just a coconut scented car wax, I use it on the ambulance. It's called palm wax, from palm leaves dunno what kind of palm leaf. But I know that they use it to make M&M's "melt in your mouth, not in your hand".

  13. You know...I just went in to change my signature,(Sorry Mobes) and noticed the people that have visited my profile. It knocked me off of my chocks.

  15. As read in orientation "If you slip, trip or fall, limit injuries by falling properly" So just what the heck does that really mean?

    1. Chief1C

      Chief1C

      Just explain the exam procedure for a broken coccyx, and they'll probably try really had not to fall backward at least.

      Superglue mixed with ointment. I did that for my forehead last month. Tried to put a pike pole up in the firehouse attic, and knocked down a stack of old copper pipes. Nice half moon lac on my forehead, bled like a stuck pig. Just tapped me, it was thin pipe, ppl reacted like I got hit with a wrecking ball. Simple glue job.

      Really? I'd rather take someone to the ER, than to the funeral home, strip them naked, photograph them, jab cardiac needles into their thighs and hope to hit the femoral artery. Maybe it's just me.
