We could afford that plane if we weren't building a high speed slow train to nowhere.

I recon the folks whose houses get saved think firefighting equipment are a pretty good investment.


I understand why some have their own firetrucks too.

I think firefighting equipment is awesome. However, there is also something called overkill, and using a 747 to fight fires is overkill in my book. Of course, nobody asked me before they approved it, so it is too late now.

If the county of San Diego would fund it's own County Fire Department

I think Cal Fire owes the Mount San Miguel Fire district several million dollars, they canceled their contract and reopened their own fire stations.

Great Pictures thank you for posting them. Everybody should have a moment of silence for all of the "Hero's of 9/11!"
Semper Fi.
