    I believe it would be interesting to most of us.
    SAR is, for the most part, good for cocktail parties but terrible to blog because we can't talk about missions (outside of what you read via press release) nor can we post pictures of those missions. I post most of what I am allowed - but, outside of training or builds, I don't bring a camera nor is posting pictures of rescues allowed (patient rights and that stuff)....

    for example, how far does that go.... when the Shuttle Columbia came down over Texas.... I was part of the recovery - and that's the most I can or will say about it. Point is that I didn't even blog that when it happened in 2003 (and yes, pre-BS).... still don't.

    SAR in general, though, is the most fun you can have with your clothes on - it really is.

    I like the Davis stuff.... Jacobs is good, Davis is better.
    '40 runs great, no overheating - fact is it runs better then before maybe even better than ever. Time to stash it where I do SAR stuff...

    I had great luck with my DUI setup on the six cylinder Chevy.

    I have Kids......
    I've been Lied Too Before.......

    But it "STILL SUCKS DIRT" when its a
    ADULT who is Hosing You for the Sale !!

    Another experience is,
    Half your order comes from the seller,
    The other half that's "Not Quite in Inventory"
    Is Direct Shipped By the Manufacturer and
    Shows Up 10 Days Later with a Billing
    Invoice for the Seller.......

    Haven't had any threatening Bill Collector Letters Yet ....

    Summit screwed me - I always check where it's sent from, sometimes I can wait, others.... not so much... This time Summit claimed it was close.. it's in Ohio.

    One of those 'I know God will settle the accounts of those who do crap like this' .... missing heaven just for a sale.
