Trying to be an optimist

My girlie lives right across the street from a fire hall. Every day between 10 and 10:30 pm they go tearing out lights and sirens wailing. Is there a fire every day at exactly the same time? Or don't they want to take their own trucks for the lunch run? I guess if I have to be woken up it might as well be by a wide open diesel with its turbo singing.

Sleep at your own house and you won't have to worry about it.

My house backs onto a nice, quiet golf course so I would much rather do just that. Gotta keep her happy sometimes, though.

I'd rather stay by the firehouse. The red lights are mezmorizing.

Exterminate the crickets and move away from the fire house.

If a box if roofing nails happened to fall out of your truck box right in front of the fire hall youd probably hear less sirens.

If they try the case same way as the MMM'ers want to do with the gun issues......the company that made the nails would be held liable for all damages.........
