Yes that dummy was me... thankfully was wearing thick leather work gloves or I'd be missing fingers. Just lost a nail and sliced a finger, but I'll live.

Don't be a Bobby. Shut it off first.

PSA: It's been a while since we used a snow blower, and there's absolutely no excuse for being stupid, but when wet snow gets stuck in the snow chute, don't stick your hands in there while the snowblower is running.

I'll give you one guess who effed three of his fingers.

Just because we're not a bunch of nerdy stiffs, and everyone needs to smile and laugh more, we took our base map and recaptioned it. Strictly for humor, but maybe it brightens your day a little. The REAL forecast and discussion can be found at https://t.co/03dhOnb4S0

@PSPTroopNPIO @ShaneandWyatt1 Happy Birthday! Love seeing all of the updates over the years.

Every time radiology is ready for my Dad’s CT, MRI, or bone scan.🏥

“Sorry you can’t come back.”

“But he’s a fall risk and he’s confused. I’d like to accompany him.”

“It’s our policy.”

“May I see the policy?”🧐

Blank stare followed by one blink.

“Yeah. I’m coming back.”

@asystoleah Like painting a room.
The skill is in the planning and prep!

For the record: fecal firestorm (trademark pending) was the second edit. First description didn’t make it past the editor.

So yes there has been a lull...due to sinking air in between two heavier bands

But...as the band to the east has begin to dissipate over NJ, the Central PA band still has to move thru. So more is coming. I am busy with server issues, so no time to address individual questions.

[Bucks County EHS @BucksEhs]

@Jojo_research I’ll take 747 for the win…I’ve used it for the following on the job…
- a seat
- a table
- a stool
- a lectern
- a lunch box
- a shield
- yeah, sure, a med box
- and when you think it’s done… a station tool box.

❌ “If I call 999 I am guaranteed to be sent an ambulance

❌“If I call 999 and an ambulance comes, they’ll definitely take me in to hospital”

❌“Going in to hospital by ambulance always means being seen quicker in A&E”

Why this won't always be the case and how we'll help ⬇

Lots of people are seeking COVID self-tests. Just a reminder to take a moment to ensure any you buy are legit. Visit the FDA site for the latest approved list. Don’t let stress take you away from your normal routine of vetting plans and processes.

It can be a very tough time of the year for first responders when tragedy strikes. We don’t know about you, but the hurt seems harder when it visits around the holidays.

If you are in need of help, it is here. It is available. All of the help is confidential.

[Christopher Confalone @CMJC378]

The holidays usually means a few vague tweets about my Christmas Maker projects.

This year I’ll start by simply wishing my Dutch friends a “Heerliki avondje” for Sinterklass tonight.

My first project is inspired by The Netherlands.

@tbouthillet Make it twice as long and have the Animation - with motion path to the left. It will look like it is live.
