Tuesday Morning – Back to Normal (Whatever "Normal" is)
From what I could tell, it looked like almost everybody had favorable weather for their parades and fireworks shows yesterday. It's always hot in July, but not as much of that "blistering hot" that we've seen the past couple of years. So I hope everyone enjoyed themselves. Now it's back to the routine, but you folks who are on day work get a short workweek as a bonus.
A few days ago, one of my Facebook "Friends" asked me why my FB Wall was hidden…. nothing showing on it. I didn't know it was hidden, let alone know how long it had been that way. When I'm logged on to my own FB page, naturally I see everything and was unaware of my seclusion. That explains why I wasn't getting any comments or Likes, etc., on my entries. Well, to get to the point, I poked around the account settings and found the problem, then reset it to make the Wall accessible to everybody again. So feel free to nudge and comment again. I'll never fully understand that thing anyway, but it's fun trying. I have a lot of interesting Friends on there and I enjoy the interaction.
It's only a couple more weeks until the Firehouse Expo begins in Baltimore. Those of you who are registered for the many seminars and classes during the weeklong event don't need reminding, but for those of you who make the day trip to visit the Exhibition Hall, I'll plug it again. The Firegeezer crew along with Dave Statter of STATter911 fame, and the Firefighter Netcast team will be there at booth #743 where we will be looking for you to drop by for a visit while you're filling up your goody-bag with handouts.
All of us really enjoy seeing you and chatting about what's happened since we last saw you, or especially meeting many of you for the first time. We have a lot of fun during those three days, July 21, 22, and 23. And….. this year we have plenty of free passes to give out. That's right, you can get in without paying if you're a Firegeezer fan. But you have to register online to get it. Here's what you do:
- CLICK HERE to enter the Registration page.
- Fill it out using the Promo Code EX 79 in the appropriate box.
- Finish out the registration form and pick up your pass at the registration center in the exhibit hall when you arrive.
If you are traveling with your family or a carload of other members from your department, everybody is eligible for a free pass, BUT each of you have to fill out your own registration form. So let's get that taken care of this week and make plans to see us there!
Now let's make plans to get this equipment checked out. I need to get some more coffee started, so I'll get going with that. See you back in the day room in a little while.
