A fireman is at the station house working outside on the fire truck when he notices a little boy next door. The little boy is in a little red wagon with little ladders hung off the side. He is wearing a fireman's hat and has the wagon tied to a dog.
The fireman says "Hey little boy. What are you doing?"
The little boy says "I'm pretending to be a fireman and this is my fire truck!"
The fireman walks over to take a closer look. "Little boy that sure is a nice fire truck!" the fireman says.
"Thanks mister", says the little boy.
The fireman looks a little closer and notices the little boy has tied the dog to the wagon by its testicles.
"Little boy", says the fireman, "I don't want to tell you how to run your fire truck, but if you were to tie that rope around the dog's neck I think you could go faster."
The little boy says, "You're probably right mister, but then I wouldn't have a siren!"
....................................................................................
a `freebie' cause it's short..
Returning back to the station after a 4 alarm fire:
"Nothing new to report captain, the LOT was saved." _________________

Good posts Indian. I'd almost swear you've been to a couple of my past fire departments. LOL Seriously though, we in emergency services all need a good laugh from to time; so thank you for providing a few. I know you're probably aware of what "graveyard humour" is; so you know that even on the job we sometimes try to make light of what is happening around us; albeit out of earshot of family, friends and neighbors.
Keep them coming, take care and, as always, all my best to you and yours.
Doc

The Hunting Trip
Three firefighters went out on a hunting trip. There was a rookie, a captain, and a chief. The weather was misrable and they hadn't seen any deer all day. They came across an old shack where they went inside to play a game of poker.
After loosing a couple of hands, the rookie threw down his cards and said "that does it! I am going out to get me a deer." Fifteen minutes later, the rookie came back with a nice four point buck. The captain and chief asked, "how did you get that?" The rookie replied, "I walked out fifty feet, followed some tracks and shot this buck".
The captain then said, "I've had enough of this I am going to get my deer." He came back a half hour later with a 6-point buck. The chief asked, "how did you get that?" The captain replied, "I walked out a hundred feet, followed some tracks and shot this buck."
The chief not wanting to be out done said "I am out of here, I am going to bag the biggest buck of the day." He came back an hour later, all mangled
up and bloody. The rookie and captain asked, "what happened to you?"
The chief replied, "I walked out there five hundred feet, followed some tracks, and got hit by a train." _________________
