00:16:01.960 --> 00:16:05.559
<v Speaker 3>got to run. You know, it's pretty tough, you know,

306
00:16:06.320 --> 00:16:10.240
<v Speaker 3>But then I got like a ninety nine overall. But

307
00:16:10.320 --> 00:16:12.679
<v Speaker 3>then the women fought it, so really it get held

308
00:16:12.759 --> 00:16:15.879
<v Speaker 3>up in court like seven years. Wow, I would have

309
00:16:15.919 --> 00:16:20.159
<v Speaker 3>been on a twenty. I got on twenty seven, right,

310
00:16:21.000 --> 00:16:22.840
<v Speaker 3>So it took me. I did get almost the same

311
00:16:22.919 --> 00:16:23.759
<v Speaker 3>thing as you. I was.

312
00:16:23.960 --> 00:16:25.799
<v Speaker 5>I didn't really take it seriously at first, and I

313
00:16:25.840 --> 00:16:27.600
<v Speaker 5>didn't get on with me and Louis took it together.

314
00:16:27.679 --> 00:16:29.600
<v Speaker 5>He got on and the next time I was like,

315
00:16:29.879 --> 00:16:32.320
<v Speaker 5>I'm not wasting any time I'm doing. I trained my

316
00:16:32.399 --> 00:16:35.000
<v Speaker 5>ass off and I was in the first of that list.

317
00:16:36.360 --> 00:16:39.600
<v Speaker 3>You know. I saw like Richie Eula, Tommy McCarry, the

318
00:16:39.679 --> 00:16:43.000
<v Speaker 3>old guys in my town. The first test with those guys,

319
00:16:43.759 --> 00:16:46.840
<v Speaker 3>those guys were already on is and they were loving it.

320
00:16:47.200 --> 00:16:49.919
<v Speaker 3>So I was like, I gotta study, I gotta I

321
00:16:49.960 --> 00:16:51.440
<v Speaker 3>gotta do this, I gotta work out and.

322
00:16:51.519 --> 00:16:51.919
<v Speaker 4>Just do it.

323
00:16:52.720 --> 00:16:54.279
<v Speaker 3>And you did it and I did it.

324
00:16:54.840 --> 00:16:56.720
<v Speaker 5>You can do anything you want. That's the guy to

325
00:16:56.919 --> 00:16:58.919
<v Speaker 5>try to get on Yula. You ever try to reach out.

326
00:16:58.840 --> 00:16:59.279
<v Speaker 3>To him room.

327
00:16:59.440 --> 00:17:00.440
<v Speaker 6>I did try to get him.

328
00:17:00.639 --> 00:17:03.759
<v Speaker 7>He watches the show, but we might be able to

329
00:17:03.759 --> 00:17:04.519
<v Speaker 7>get him down the road.

330
00:17:04.559 --> 00:17:06.079
<v Speaker 6>I think he had some some help.

331
00:17:05.920 --> 00:17:08.519
<v Speaker 3>Stuff for Yeah, I think Richie's got a little health

332
00:17:08.559 --> 00:17:12.079
<v Speaker 3>things going on, all right. Well, Richie's a good guy,

333
00:17:12.279 --> 00:17:15.160
<v Speaker 3>because I would run into him down and he would

334
00:17:15.200 --> 00:17:18.680
<v Speaker 3>go down to Hilton Head in the winters and I

335
00:17:18.720 --> 00:17:20.039
<v Speaker 3>would run into him down there.

336
00:17:20.119 --> 00:17:22.039
<v Speaker 7>But he hasn't been down there the last couple of years.

337
00:17:22.680 --> 00:17:24.799
<v Speaker 5>So when did you start with the motorcycles after he

338
00:17:24.880 --> 00:17:26.000
<v Speaker 5>got on the job before?

339
00:17:26.519 --> 00:17:32.119
<v Speaker 3>No, well I always had motorcycles, right always, and then

340
00:17:32.160 --> 00:17:34.079
<v Speaker 3>when I got on I joined the fire Riders. I

341
00:17:34.119 --> 00:17:36.359
<v Speaker 3>want to say, like right around eighty seven. I think

342
00:17:36.400 --> 00:17:40.400
<v Speaker 3>the club started eighty five, but that was like the

343
00:17:40.440 --> 00:17:43.759
<v Speaker 3>Firefighters edition they came out with right after nine to eleven.

344
00:17:43.799 --> 00:17:44.559
<v Speaker 7>They built that fight.

345
00:17:44.680 --> 00:17:47.559
<v Speaker 3>Actually, great Fagan from Squad one, he wrote a letter

346
00:17:48.279 --> 00:17:52.279
<v Speaker 3>to Willie g who was the head of Holly Davidson,

347
00:17:52.680 --> 00:17:54.160
<v Speaker 3>and said, oh, you know, you should do this and

348
00:17:54.240 --> 00:17:56.000
<v Speaker 3>everything else, and then it came out with that bike.

349
00:17:57.279 --> 00:18:02.519
<v Speaker 3>But the head of the fire Alan Arius, Yeah he was,

350
00:18:03.160 --> 00:18:05.279
<v Speaker 3>but it was like kind of unorganized back then. So

351
00:18:05.359 --> 00:18:07.000
<v Speaker 3>I kind of left for a little while and did

352
00:18:07.039 --> 00:18:09.079
<v Speaker 3>my own thing. But then I came back and got

353
00:18:09.119 --> 00:18:12.480
<v Speaker 3>back into it, right, you know, and it's been great,

354
00:18:12.599 --> 00:18:14.519
<v Speaker 3>especially being retied. It's a good connection.

355
00:18:14.839 --> 00:18:17.440
<v Speaker 5>So you left the fire Riders, joined the Hell's Angels

356
00:18:17.559 --> 00:18:17.880
<v Speaker 5>and then.

357
00:18:22.119 --> 00:18:22.880
<v Speaker 3>All right, so let's go.

358
00:18:22.960 --> 00:18:24.799
<v Speaker 5>You get you get the coal. What were you doing

359
00:18:24.799 --> 00:18:27.440

507
00:24:42.640 --> 00:24:45.799
<v Speaker 5>confusing with the different names right in the buildings.

508
00:24:45.920 --> 00:24:48.799
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, each one had different names, you know, somewhere on

509
00:24:48.920 --> 00:24:51.880
<v Speaker 3>the service road. Others you got to go around the backside,

510
00:24:52.279 --> 00:24:52.480
<v Speaker 3>you know.

511
00:24:53.160 --> 00:24:56.880
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, very confusing, Like, yeah, builds a lot of people,

512
00:24:57.400 --> 00:24:59.599
<v Speaker 5>hot hot fires in those buildings.

513
00:25:00.200 --> 00:25:03.000
<v Speaker 3>The first job I was at, I had the nozzle

514
00:25:03.640 --> 00:25:06.440
<v Speaker 3>and the guy gave me a nozzle on your first job. Yeah,

515
00:25:06.480 --> 00:25:08.400
<v Speaker 3>And these guys are like they're like pushing me in

516
00:25:09.079 --> 00:25:10.200
<v Speaker 3>and I'm like, it's hot.

517
00:25:10.359 --> 00:25:11.079
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, I'm like, you.

518
00:25:13.119 --> 00:25:22.240
<v Speaker 3>Know, it's hot like finale, But they I mean really,

519
00:25:22.640 --> 00:25:24.240
<v Speaker 3>I mean, it was a long time ago. Those guys.

520
00:25:24.279 --> 00:25:26.599
<v Speaker 3>They were still shining the poles and everything else, clean

521
00:25:26.680 --> 00:25:31.720
<v Speaker 3>the braass and the firehouse, you know, inspection, you know, uh,

522
00:25:32.279 --> 00:25:36.440
<v Speaker 3>what they call yearly inspection, you know, house inspection, inspection,

523
00:25:36.720 --> 00:25:40.279
<v Speaker 3>inspection was like serious, yeah, yeah for real.

524
00:25:40.680 --> 00:25:42.359
<v Speaker 6>Well, when you got the burrow in there, that's a

525
00:25:42.400 --> 00:25:44.920
<v Speaker 6>little bit more pressure, I think, probably.

526
00:25:44.720 --> 00:25:47.119
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, But they kind of stayed upstairs. We didn't really

527
00:25:47.160 --> 00:25:49.480
<v Speaker 3>see them too much. They did their own thing.

528
00:25:50.079 --> 00:25:50.279
<v Speaker 6>Yeah.

529
00:25:50.640 --> 00:25:52.920
<v Speaker 3>Did they eat with you know, no, they didn't eat

<v Speaker 3>with us. No, No, man and the guys, the old guys. Yeah, no,

531
00:25:58.680 --> 00:26:01.279

<v Speaker 6>Yeah, that was in the eighties too.

534
00:26:10.160 --> 00:26:13.480

536
00:26:17.640 --> 00:26:22.160
<v Speaker 3>you know, on CHIPS's crazy. So how long were you

538
00:26:26.240 --> 00:26:28.039
<v Speaker 3>I guess I was there about two or three years.

768
00:36:37.360 --> 00:36:39.599
<v Speaker 7>I don't see Ritchie's manure here from Richie at all.

769
00:36:39.880 --> 00:36:41.239
<v Speaker 3>He retired out of one thirty six.

770
00:36:42.239 --> 00:36:44.440
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, he retired at one thirty six.

771
00:36:45.280 --> 00:36:48.360
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, you know, did you wheel a woman out in

772
00:36:48.440 --> 00:36:49.000
<v Speaker 6>the wheelchair?

773
00:36:49.679 --> 00:36:52.000
<v Speaker 3>No, no, she was out of a wheelchair.

774
00:36:52.079 --> 00:36:52.920
<v Speaker 7>She was on the floor.

775
00:36:53.840 --> 00:36:57.559
<v Speaker 3>So I carried her out and listen, I was still

776
00:36:57.599 --> 00:36:58.119
<v Speaker 3>fairly knew.

777
00:36:58.119 --> 00:36:59.400
<v Speaker 7>I didn't even know what to say, you know.

778
00:36:59.639 --> 00:37:02.119
<v Speaker 3>So when I got her in the hallway and then

779
00:37:02.159 --> 00:37:04.800
<v Speaker 3>down the staircase, EMS was there. They took it down

780
00:37:04.840 --> 00:37:07.480
<v Speaker 3>the rest of the way, and then I went back in.

781
00:37:07.599 --> 00:37:09.920
<v Speaker 3>I said, oh, Richie, by the way, I just brought

782
00:37:09.960 --> 00:37:13.119
<v Speaker 3>this woman out and I handed off the EMS. Right.

783
00:37:14.000 --> 00:37:16.519
<v Speaker 3>So then, uh, you know, afterwards he did his whole thing,

784
00:37:16.599 --> 00:37:17.920
<v Speaker 3>wrote it up and whatever else.

785
00:37:18.000 --> 00:37:18.920
<v Speaker 5>After that he gave the.

786
00:37:20.400 --> 00:37:26.119
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. Yeah, so I didn't really think that much of it.

787
00:37:26.280 --> 00:37:27.360
<v Speaker 7>But then I went up.

788
00:37:27.440 --> 00:37:29.880
<v Speaker 3>That's when I got you weren't the medal day that year,

00:37:35.239 --> 00:37:37.119
<v Speaker 5>I think you had a couple of pictures with the family.

00:37:37.320 --> 00:37:40.119
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I have this one and we have this one.

793
00:37:42.360 --> 00:37:44.079
<v Speaker 3>So yeah, I was saying that. Guys were like, oh,

795
00:37:45.800 --> 00:37:47.599
<v Speaker 3>the Bennett. You're going to get the Bennett. And then

796
00:37:47.800 --> 00:37:52.320
<v Speaker 3>like almost towards the end of the year, Richard grabs

797
00:37:52.360 --> 00:37:55.760
<v Speaker 3>a baby out of a crib, gets the Bennett. Yeah,

798
00:37:56.760 --> 00:37:59.480
<v Speaker 3>so you knock me out of the box the topper.

799
00:38:00.159 --> 00:38:01.320
<v Speaker 6>What did you get the huge bona?

800
00:38:01.400 --> 00:38:03.079
<v Speaker 7>Did you get the huge Bonaea?

801
00:38:09.320 --> 00:38:11.480
<v Speaker 3>But the guys were good there, you know, they showed up,

802
00:38:12.599 --> 00:38:14.400
<v Speaker 3>everybody in the house, came to middle day.

803
00:38:14.559 --> 00:38:15.519
<v Speaker 7>It was a great day.

804
00:38:16.280 --> 00:38:19.559
<v Speaker 5>What year was that, Oh that was back in I

805
00:38:19.599 --> 00:38:20.920
<v Speaker 5>would say ninety eight.

806
00:38:23.159 --> 00:38:25.320
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I've made notes here about to try to look

807
00:38:25.360 --> 00:38:27.639
<v Speaker 3>back on all my notes, but I want to ninety eight.

808
00:38:28.280 --> 00:38:30.320
<v Speaker 5>So when they first started talking about putting the squad

809
00:38:30.360 --> 00:38:32.519
<v Speaker 5>in two eighty eight, what the guys had the guys

810
00:38:32.599 --> 00:38:34.440
<v Speaker 5>feel in thirty six and two eighty.

811
00:38:34.360 --> 00:38:37.760
<v Speaker 3>Seven, There really wasn't a lot of a lot of

812
00:38:37.840 --> 00:38:41.159
<v Speaker 3>discussion about it. It really, you know, I don't think

813
00:38:41.199 --> 00:38:43.880
<v Speaker 3>it really it didn't phaze me at all. I was like, whatever,

814
00:38:44.079 --> 00:38:50.039
<v Speaker 3>you know, no big deal, you know, And uh, I

815
00:38:50.119 --> 00:38:52.320
<v Speaker 3>think guys were like they weren't sure how it was

816
00:38:52.320 --> 00:38:54.119
<v Speaker 3>going to work out because like two eighty eight was

817
00:38:54.159 --> 00:38:56.679
<v Speaker 3>a slow house over there, you know, yeah, and everything

818
00:38:56.880 --> 00:38:59.079
<v Speaker 3>like the area you're in, you're gonna be able to

819
00:38:59.199 --> 00:39:03.400
<v Speaker 3>get like get around and stuff, you know, and rescue

820
00:39:03.440 --> 00:39:05.239
<v Speaker 3>fourds right down the block too, right.

821
00:39:05.239 --> 00:39:07.599
<v Speaker 7>So you're fighting all the time, right, So it was

822
00:39:07.679 --> 00:39:09.079
<v Speaker 7>kind of a tough spot to be in.

823
00:39:09.239 --> 00:39:11.840
<v Speaker 5>But it were originally going to put the squad in

824
00:39:11.920 --> 00:39:13.760
<v Speaker 5>three sixteen, which I think would have been a better

825
00:39:14.159 --> 00:39:17.239
<v Speaker 5>spot for the single house over there right by the Parkway.

826
00:39:17.960 --> 00:39:19.360
<v Speaker 5>I would have been at home, and they do first

827
00:39:19.400 --> 00:39:23.159
<v Speaker 5>to work over there. Yeah, I mean that what's so

828
00:39:23.239 --> 00:39:25.159
<v Speaker 5>funny is that two it is not that far from

829
00:39:25.199 --> 00:39:29.280
<v Speaker 5>one thirty six and the amount of work that I mean, yeah,

830
00:39:29.559 --> 00:39:30.320
<v Speaker 5>right down the block.

831
00:39:31.360 --> 00:39:34.239
<v Speaker 3>Masspit was such a good area, right, Yeah, it was

832
00:39:34.320 --> 00:39:37.760
<v Speaker 3>beautiful down here. Yeah. You know, I guess if you

00:39:37.880 --> 00:39:39.960
<v Speaker 3>went over too, like green Point, you know, you go

834

<v Speaker 5>to eleven.

1242
00:59:08.320 --> 00:59:13.079
<v Speaker 3>It was even back then you really thought like, at

1243
00:59:13.159 --> 00:59:15.639
<v Speaker 3>least for me, those first couple of days, you felt

1244
00:59:15.719 --> 00:59:17.599
<v Speaker 3>like you were going to really do something, you want

1245
00:59:17.599 --> 00:59:21.760
<v Speaker 3>to accomplish something like yeah it was Freddy uh Lamina

1246
00:59:21.920 --> 00:59:24.920
<v Speaker 3>was on the radio and they were looking for like

1247
00:59:24.960 --> 00:59:28.480
<v Speaker 3>a welder like Jimmy, you there, and I'm like, yeah, yeah,

1248
00:59:28.480 --> 00:59:31.679
<v Speaker 3>I'll come over, I'll weld it, you know, and you know,

1249
00:59:31.800 --> 00:59:36.800
<v Speaker 3>different things. But it really didn't accomplish anything. It was

1250
00:59:36.880 --> 00:59:37.679
<v Speaker 3>too much going on.

1251
00:59:38.159 --> 00:59:41.760
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, yeah, I had a picture like that. To have

1252
00:59:41.840 --> 00:59:44.079
<v Speaker 6>pictures like that too, it was.

1253
00:59:44.199 --> 00:59:48.960
<v Speaker 5>Like pissing on the forest fire. Really, we weren't doing nothing. Yeah,

1254
00:59:49.000 --> 00:59:51.760
<v Speaker 5>when they brought in those those grapplers, that's when they

1255
00:59:51.760 --> 00:59:52.960
<v Speaker 5>started making any kind out.

1256
00:59:53.239 --> 00:59:57.960
<v Speaker 3>We were doing five. But it was frustrating when they

1257
00:59:57.960 --> 01:00:00.920
<v Speaker 3>started like you would have like right, oll the sock

1258
01:00:00.960 --> 01:00:03.440
<v Speaker 3>companies here, but there for so long, and then they

1259
01:00:03.519 --> 01:00:06.480
<v Speaker 3>bring like a fresh company down, a fresh officer, and

1260
01:00:06.559 --> 01:00:09.280
<v Speaker 3>we were like stop, stop, stop, like no, let the

1261
01:00:09.320 --> 01:00:12.039
<v Speaker 3>grapple guy go. He knows what he's doing, you know,

1262
01:00:12.719 --> 01:00:14.519
<v Speaker 3>don't stop the guy every five minutes.

1263
01:00:14.800 --> 01:00:19.559
<v Speaker 6>Ye no, I was saying like Jim was saying, like

1264
01:00:20.719 --> 01:00:22.079
<v Speaker 6>I would say, I mean we were there for three

1265
01:00:22.159 --> 01:00:25.280
<v Speaker 6>days straight. You would think, like early on, I remember

1266
01:00:25.400 --> 01:00:28.000
<v Speaker 6>thinking like we would find some voids here and there,

1267
01:00:28.079 --> 01:00:31.079
<v Speaker 6>like weird stuff, and he thought that not not that somebody,

1268
01:00:31.480 --> 01:00:34.280
<v Speaker 6>that somebody would be under there, you know, like, but

1269
01:00:34.519 --> 01:00:38.159
<v Speaker 6>it just never you know, the pretty soon you realized

1270
01:00:38.199 --> 01:00:39.000
<v Speaker 6>that that wasn't gonna be.

1271
01:00:39.639 --> 01:00:42.280
<v Speaker 3>I remember walking in there, and I don't even know

1272
01:00:42.360 --> 01:00:44.360
<v Speaker 3>who the guys were, but we wound up grabbing like

1273
01:00:44.599 --> 01:00:46.000
<v Speaker 3>radios from a couple of guys.

1274
01:00:46.440 --> 01:00:47.039
<v Speaker 7>Me and Reina.

1275
01:00:47.880 --> 01:00:49.559
<v Speaker 3>We just kind of winged it, went off on our

1276
01:00:49.639 --> 01:00:52.440
<v Speaker 3>own and we would kind of buy where Rescue one

1277
01:00:52.639 --> 01:00:56.199
<v Speaker 3>was with that overpass was it was collapsed on the roof. Yeah,

1278
01:00:56.239 --> 01:00:59.559
<v Speaker 3>we went up and over there and they went down

1279
01:00:59.599 --> 01:01:02.400
<v Speaker 3>in a wool and I remember those guys from six

1325
01:03:15.199 --> 01:03:17.599
<v Speaker 5>So you have to do that, try to scan man

1326
01:03:17.719 --> 01:03:22.480
<v Speaker 5>like holy ship, you had to rebuild the company, right

1327
01:03:22.519 --> 01:03:23.440
<v Speaker 5>who became the captain?

1328
01:03:23.519 --> 01:03:29.000
<v Speaker 3>Right after that? Hegland Paul Hen came down okay, right

1329
01:03:29.360 --> 01:03:32.519
<v Speaker 3>and d Yeah, so you know Dano drove his brother

1330
01:03:32.599 --> 01:03:34.480
<v Speaker 3>a lot, right.

1331
01:03:37.119 --> 01:03:39.800
<v Speaker 5>Then you know, like, uh, they were originally going to

1332
01:03:39.920 --> 01:03:44.400
<v Speaker 5>roll the squads into the rescues because uh, who are

1333
01:03:44.400 --> 01:03:48.639
<v Speaker 5>we talking to? Just recently that confirmed that. I don't remember,

1334
01:03:48.639 --> 01:03:50.920
<v Speaker 5>but I remember John Gain asking me, you know, he

1335
01:03:51.199 --> 01:03:53.400
<v Speaker 5>is we're gonna be looking to take the squads. Did

1336
01:03:53.480 --> 01:03:55.960
<v Speaker 5>would you want to come all day, I said, yeah, sure,

1337
01:03:56.159 --> 01:03:59.559
<v Speaker 5>what never happened. They just decided to rebuild the command,

1338
01:03:59.599 --> 01:04:01.079
<v Speaker 5>which I think was the better thing anyway.

1339
01:04:01.400 --> 01:04:03.840
<v Speaker 3>You know, it was a whole strange time, Like it

1340
01:04:03.960 --> 01:04:06.039
<v Speaker 3>was hard, like when the new guys came, even like

1341
01:04:07.440 --> 01:04:09.679
<v Speaker 3>you know, being friendly, like I don't know, it was

1342
01:04:09.719 --> 01:04:12.239
<v Speaker 3>just all I don't know how to describe it. It

1343
01:04:12.400 --> 01:04:14.639
<v Speaker 3>was good guys, but I don't know.

1344
01:04:15.159 --> 01:04:16.719
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I had a little bit of a problem with

1345
01:04:16.800 --> 01:04:18.559
<v Speaker 5>the guys coming to I don't know, and I can't

1346
01:04:18.719 --> 01:04:21.559
<v Speaker 5>just understand why they were good guys, but I don't

1347
01:04:21.559 --> 01:04:24.039
<v Speaker 5>know if it's like these guys are taking the place

1348
01:04:24.119 --> 01:04:26.599
<v Speaker 5>of your friends, and you know, I got a little attitude,

1349
01:04:26.719 --> 01:04:27.960
<v Speaker 5>So I don't know what it was. But I remember

1350
01:04:28.039 --> 01:04:30.679
<v Speaker 5>getting into like a fight at one of the company

1351
01:04:30.800 --> 01:04:33.400
<v Speaker 5>meetings that we had, you know, and I fucking bow

1352
01:04:33.480 --> 01:04:36.519
<v Speaker 5>my stack over nonsense. It was over nothing, and I

1353
01:04:36.599 --> 01:04:37.119
<v Speaker 5>felt that way.

1354
01:04:37.119 --> 01:04:37.800
<v Speaker 3>I'm like, why am I.

1355
01:04:38.559 --> 01:04:40.760
<v Speaker 5>Giving these guys an attitude? They stepping up with.

1356
01:04:45.559 --> 01:04:49.280
<v Speaker 3>Even the offices, like you know, they'd be like trying

1357
01:04:49.320 --> 01:04:52.039
<v Speaker 3>to like do their thing and be like but that

1358
01:04:52.320 --> 01:04:54.199
<v Speaker 3>that's not how we did it here, Like, you know,

1359

1614
01:16:51.359 --> 01:16:53.760
<v Speaker 6>time I was working in the rescue and it was

1615
01:16:54.119 --> 01:16:56.840
<v Speaker 6>we were in the bucking engine gotta run two ninety two,

1616
01:16:56.880 --> 01:17:00.079
<v Speaker 6>gotta run. And there was a senior man again I

1617
01:17:00.199 --> 01:17:02.680
<v Speaker 6>used to see his face all the time, and he

1618
01:17:02.880 --> 01:17:06.800
<v Speaker 6>said the lights went on and eddie' zelman was working

1619
01:17:06.840 --> 01:17:10.479
<v Speaker 6>and Eddie said something and then he says, yeah, well,

1620
01:17:10.640 --> 01:17:13.720
<v Speaker 6>you know, two ninety two, while the cougar is raw

1621
01:17:14.079 --> 01:17:16.279
<v Speaker 6>and the rescue snare or something like that.

1622
01:17:19.359 --> 01:17:21.800
<v Speaker 3>I gotta tell you that they got stuck with a

1623
01:17:21.880 --> 01:17:24.279
<v Speaker 3>lot though, because we were out of court as so.

1624
01:17:24.520 --> 01:17:26.479
<v Speaker 5>Much, especially if you've got to run down to the

1625
01:17:26.640 --> 01:17:30.399
<v Speaker 5>Rockaways or something. Man, just oh good, because you.

1626
01:17:30.439 --> 01:17:34.039
<v Speaker 3>Guys got turned out on the report of a pin. Right, Yeah,

1627
01:17:34.239 --> 01:17:36.279
<v Speaker 3>So we would try to listen up on the radio.

1628
01:17:37.159 --> 01:17:40.479
<v Speaker 3>So if you heard something coming in, you know, maybe

1629
01:17:40.600 --> 01:17:42.640
<v Speaker 3>not maybe not so much a pin, but you heard

1630
01:17:42.680 --> 01:17:45.840
<v Speaker 3>something come in, it sounded like a good job multiple calls. Yeah,

1631
01:17:45.920 --> 01:17:48.960
<v Speaker 3>we'd head that way before you even got the ticket.

1632
01:17:49.880 --> 01:17:51.760
<v Speaker 3>So at least you got on the road because you

1633
01:17:51.800 --> 01:17:54.680
<v Speaker 3>could be in Rockaway then get job in a story

1634
01:17:54.760 --> 01:17:57.840
<v Speaker 3>after that, you know, and you're not gonna it's too

1635
01:17:57.920 --> 01:17:58.439
<v Speaker 3>far away?

1636
01:17:59.239 --> 01:18:03.159
<v Speaker 5>Is a big geographic distance, Yeah, I think.

1637
01:18:03.159 --> 01:18:05.439
<v Speaker 3>Like what's Queens is like one hundred and fifty square

1638
01:18:05.520 --> 01:18:06.600
<v Speaker 3>miles or something like that.

1639
01:18:07.039 --> 01:18:07.920
<v Speaker 6>That's pretty crazy.

1640
01:18:08.439 --> 01:18:10.880
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I mean it was nothing like twenty four hours

1641
01:18:10.880 --> 01:18:13.199
<v Speaker 3>to put one hundred miles on the rig was nothing.

1642
01:18:14.359 --> 01:18:17.399
<v Speaker 3>Did you drive before you retired? I did? Yeah. How

1643

1645
01:18:20.039 --> 01:18:22.760
<v Speaker 3>Yeah? At night sometimes it was tough, but I liked it.

1646
01:18:23.199 --> 01:18:24.720
<v Speaker 4>Garbage in your way.

1647
01:18:26.840 --> 01:18:28.600

1649
01:18:32.560 --> 01:18:35.800
<v Speaker 3>to scream both sides of the wall wheels.

1650
01:18:36.439 --> 01:18:39.520

1759
01:23:22.279 --> 01:23:26.079
<v Speaker 3>four one day, somehow he came there doing overtime and

1766
01:23:39.399 --> 01:23:42.279
<v Speaker 3>the time, but years later then I realized, like who

1767

1823
01:26:08.520 --> 01:26:09.039
<v Speaker 6>We had.

1824
01:26:10.399 --> 01:26:11.760
<v Speaker 3>A lot of guys have money bikes.

1825
01:26:11.840 --> 01:26:14.000
<v Speaker 7>Some guys put them on a cause whatever.

1826
01:26:14.640 --> 01:26:16.399
<v Speaker 6>Do you guys go off for donations? Like what do

1827
01:26:16.479 --> 01:26:16.960
<v Speaker 6>you guys do?

1828
01:26:17.399 --> 01:26:20.960
<v Speaker 3>We do a raffle every year and we just finished up.

1829
01:26:20.960 --> 01:26:25.279
<v Speaker 3>We actually sold out already and the raffle is going

1830
01:26:25.359 --> 01:26:27.239
<v Speaker 3>to be actually this Saturday, we have a tuner party

1831
01:26:27.279 --> 01:26:31.520
<v Speaker 3>at the Plat Deutsch at one o'clock to five o'clock

1832
01:26:31.560 --> 01:26:34.720
<v Speaker 3>at the Plat Deutsch and Fink Franklin Square. Everybody's in

1833
01:26:34.760 --> 01:26:36.800
<v Speaker 3>buy it. They call it a tuner party. So I

1834
01:26:36.880 --> 01:26:38.640
<v Speaker 3>think a lot of people think it's like, oh, guy's

1835
01:26:38.720 --> 01:26:40.680
<v Speaker 3>gonna be working on their bikes. No, nobody's working on

1836
01:26:40.760 --> 01:26:43.640
<v Speaker 3>their bikes. Everybody's drinking and eating and having a good time, right,

1837
01:26:44.159 --> 01:26:47.159
<v Speaker 3>and they'll do to raffles. So we sell five hundred

1838
01:26:47.159 --> 01:26:50.479
<v Speaker 3>tickets every year, one hundred dollars a ticket, we give

1839
01:26:50.520 --> 01:26:55.199
<v Speaker 3>away fifteen grand and then you know, second and third

1840
01:26:55.279 --> 01:26:59.479
<v Speaker 3>prize or a great new motorcycle, and every year we

1841
01:26:59.560 --> 01:27:06.359
<v Speaker 3>donate five family transport gift of life off the love

1842
01:27:06.439 --> 01:27:09.439
<v Speaker 3>burns in a camp. And then like if anybody raised

1843
01:27:09.479 --> 01:27:12.920
<v Speaker 3>their hand in the club and wants to donate to somebody,

1844
01:27:13.800 --> 01:27:16.079
<v Speaker 3>he said, yeah, will donate, and then we passed the

1845
01:27:16.159 --> 01:27:17.920
<v Speaker 3>hat to and we give the money, like we just

1846
01:27:18.000 --> 01:27:25.239
<v Speaker 3>gave to Jimmy Harvison his widow. I don't know if

1847
01:27:25.279 --> 01:27:28.680
<v Speaker 3>you remember the story. He was jogging, yeah, in the

1848
01:27:28.800 --> 01:27:32.119
<v Speaker 3>track and a couple of kids just decided that he

1849
01:27:32.399 --> 01:27:35.199
<v Speaker 3>was like to shoot somebody, and he shot and killed him.

1850
01:27:35.239 --> 01:27:38.359
<v Speaker 3>He had like three years on the job. So we

1851
01:27:38.560 --> 01:27:42.600
<v Speaker 3>just went to his widow's house. And that's probably could

1852
01:27:42.640 --> 01:27:45.479
<v Speaker 3>be twenty years ago, I remember that, and they were

1853
01:27:45.560 --> 01:27:48.279
<v Speaker 3>like shutting off for electric. The house was falling apart.

1854
01:27:49.039 --> 01:27:51.720
<v Speaker 3>So all the guys from Snyder Revenue, I think it's

1855
01:27:51.720 --> 01:27:55.720
<v Speaker 3>one seventy four four, they were all doing work on

1856
01:27:55.800 --> 01:27:58.000
<v Speaker 3>the house. So we went there with some of our

1857
01:27:58.119 --> 01:28:01.399
<v Speaker 3>raffle money and we made a donation toois and materials

1858
01:28:01.439 --> 01:28:05.000
<v Speaker 3>and everything else. Home depot gave a donation and the

1859
01:28:05.079 --> 01:28:07.640
<v Speaker 3>woman was literally in tears when we showed up to

1860
01:28:07.680 --> 01:28:10.359
<v Speaker 3>give her the money, you know, to put their house.

1861
01:28:10.439 --> 01:28:13.159
<v Speaker 3>Those guys said they actually paid her electric bill that

1862
01:28:13.319 --> 01:28:16.479
<v Speaker 3>day so they wouldn't shut the electric off. Wow. Yeah,

1863
01:28:17.159 --> 01:28:18.680
<v Speaker 3>that was a ride. I was leaving to go on.

1864

01:36:05.520 --> 01:36:11.359
<v Speaker 3>would be, really just check the rig, know the tools

2025
01:36:11.439 --> 01:36:14.279
<v Speaker 3>on the rig, make sure everything works, make sure the

2026
01:36:14.399 --> 01:36:17.439
<v Speaker 3>mess have you know your pack has air, make sure

2027
01:36:17.479 --> 01:36:21.520
<v Speaker 3>the batteries are charged, the other tools have gasoline, and

2028
01:36:21.680 --> 01:36:24.880
<v Speaker 3>just know where everything is, you know, because half the

2029
01:36:25.000 --> 01:36:28.960
<v Speaker 3>time companies pull up, not half the time, but companies

2030
