im not saying they should have gotten an inferior boat- just one smaller and better suited to the needs of the district- and they could have done so for at least $350,000 LESS. remember, bigger equals higher fuel and maintenance costs too." Jul 30, 10 2:00 PM
you seem to be forgetting about the marine police boats- all the east end town have them. the primary function of a fire dept is putting out fires. search and rescue falls under the coast guard and local police agencies" Jul 30, 10 2:09 PM
the VP has no choice regarding his method of travel and his secret service detail- they go where he goes-period. business trip, vacation, whatever- he is guarded 24/7 as it should be, whether you like his politics or not" Jul 30, 10 8:57 PM

$100,000 for a dispatcher in sleepy SV???!!!!!??? holy craaaaaaaaaaaaaap!! plus porn on the computer- i guess the dispatching doesn't take up too much of his time- and he's not suspended and fired??? i love it" Jul 30, 10 9:05 PM

personally, i really don't think people should bathing in the lake anyway... i mean can't they just take a shower or bath at home? the lake should be for swimming and fishing only

so what you're saying is the second in command of the USA should stay in a Motel 6 or a boarding house on vacation? how about sending him to a homless shelter, or maybe we could just drag an old mattress into the back of a bodega in Brownsville??
and by the way do you think the VP pays for his meals at his residence in DC?
you're hitchin' your wagon to the wrong horse lady "

i heard they found shrunken heads in his locker, but they're just going to slap his cheeks and send him home with his pension" Aug 1, 10 7:32 AM
Barcelona boat party was in Sag Harbor Cove on Sunday, they might have come from there. overall there were hundreds of boats there, with a few idiots mixed in. kudos to the harbormaster, Southampton and east hampton bay constables, sherriff and shelter island police boat for dealing with the idiots while everyone had a good time.
i dont even think anyone was arrested or seriously injured. after the boat sinking i saw the southampton boat bring someone in to the dock who was burned, and i saw a few people getting tickets, but overall the cops did a good job keeping a lik on things."

no its not- but co-ordination of response would be a good thing. witness the fiasco in the ocean last saturday night. somebody pushes a button and everyone gets in the trucks and races around without even knowing whats going on . ive heard from other fd's that north sea in particular tends to respond out of district without being requested
we have a huge pool of resources and qualified people available from all the PD's, fire depts and amb crews- but there is no one in charge and even a small incident turns into a free for all- its only a matter of time before someone is killed in the confusion "

i'm glad they "meet to keeps the cridentials alive" whatever that means, and based on your PS i'm guessing that you may be just a LITTLE biased. and now i would like to add- you totally missed the point then lets add a fast and efficient response by properly trained professionals is desired, not a bunch of overgrown kids playing with their sirens and then add if a police car, fire truck or amb responds recklessly and crashes they will never GET to the scene, and now add - why are all you FD people so defensive when anyone, God forbid, questions your qualifications??

question-- how would you feel about volunteer police??" Aug 4, 10 9:50 PM
my friend, George Costanza, is also a marine biologist and he thinks the red tide and higher water temperatures is caused by people dumping too much hot sauce into the water. " Aug 6, 10 4:55 PM
