Notes From the Firehouse

I sure hope more forethought went into the book than into the cover photo.

Wow. What’s the res on this photo? 12 dpi?

Oh, and the focus is off, too.

I’m a real cool dude and I can see… a big shiny ladder just waiting for me. I’m a real cool dude…can’t you tell? I put out fires and I put them out well.

There’s a story that goes with the photo. We were called to a 2 alarm fire at three in the morning and during the initial attack my air-tank malfunctioned and I was trapped on the third floor. An off duty firefighter took a photo of me trying to get some air, if you notice I only have one glove on. The other glove was lost when I tried to fix my air-tank, you wear gloves for a reason, I ended up getting a dozen stitches in my hand at the E.R. A week later the off-duty firefighter presented me with a copy of the photo. I guess you have to know the story before you can appreciate the cover.
