I'am BEYOND WORDS! http://www.prisonplanet.com/5-men-rush-to-save-dying-woman-as-cop-chats-on-phone.html This once again, reiterates the situation discussed earlier in rancherman's thread. Except, instead of being the victim, how would you respond to something like this as a passerby? I carry a medical bag, blankets, gloves, towstraps, some other relevant tools for emergencies. I think I may need to rethink how I could every approach such a situation like this to see if I ever could do any good for someone. I do not know the full extent of the situation, nor the immediate area, but I think kicking the truck into 4 low and hooking a tow strap up t…

Well gang... Got woke up to a fire call in Whitebird Idaho. Man what a way to get woke up. Well jumped in my clothes hauled out the door. By the time I got the gate open I heard my crew member responding in Engine 11. Dang I thought I got to get moving. So I beat feet for the fire station in hopes to catch him. Locked up tight. So on towards Riggins, ID. I'm think I got to get to Kelly's place pick him up and hit Station 4. So outside of Riggins, ID I call him on the cell phone alerting him to meet me on the street. Well I meet him and we toss on a turn outs and listen to the radio more. Fire Chief is picking up a water tender at Station 3 and I just happen to see my crew…

Look out below the temperature are going to drop to single digits for my place. That means batten down the hatches and move to the living room for sleeping area. It just too cold at those temperatures to heat the entire house so we shut down the bedrooms and the extra rooms down stairs and just heat the living room & kitchen. Take notice its going to break minimum temp records for those days. Oh man its going to be minus temps in New Meadows, ID proper... Ekkk...

Well, Tammy WAS discharged on Saturday from our small local hospital, (12 bed chicken house) and Sunday afternoon, I took her up to a larger hospital! didn't like the looks of her thigh. It was almost 3 times the size of what 'normal' is. When she moved, I could hear gurgling swishing.Turns out, her skin actually was torn away from the connective tissue and her thigh muscle. Imagine an area just above your knee, extending to just below your hip bone...... and as wide as your leg.... totally separated from you, but still attached. Only a little hole that was formed when the skin was pulled s…

Here is my Thanksgiving Miracle. My wife and 10 year old daughter were coming back from town last evening, about a 40 mile trip, and had some blowing and patchy snow packed roads. Running up a hill, the pickup lost traction and back ended into the ditch, rolling either 1.5 or 2.5 times. I believe it was 1.5 times, but had quite a bit of air time. Both were ejected and daughter apparently was 'dropped' on the slow side of the roll. Wife had a much harsher ride, she went over the top, and had much more speed. She ended up 60 foot away from the pickup... Both got ct scans, wife got a hairline …

http://beforeitsnews.com/the-law/2013/11/man-arrested-for-trying-to-feed-himself-leaves-judge-speechless-2454082.html By Susan Duclos The video below is raw footage of Ernie Wayne Tertelgte at his “visitation” in Three Forks Justice Court, where is charged for fishing without a license, but he maintains that he belongs under natural and universal law where he is entitled to feed himself and fend for himself without some “license.” Quote: I am a “living man and have the right to forage for food.” The back and forth between Mr. Tertelgte and the judge shows how the “law” sometimes goes against everything natural and right and how this one man, fights back, speaks up a…

Hello all, Since I purchased my truck( YabbaDoo) a little over a month ago I have done several tweaks and maintenance items. Starting with a Relay for the FSS, Speed Sensor, Belt and Tensioner, Oil/fuel/transmission fluid/filter changes and Installed back up lights in the rear wheel wells, by the back hitch and also installed driving lights that can change color in the front We went exploring several days to favorite places and to new favorite places. to get to some remote places to hike with the dogs. For a big truck the turning radius is pretty sweet.The dogs and I had a fantastic time camping and can't wait to do it again next year!! I also brought my hitch cargo c…

I have noticed something in the past few years. I have really come to like the cummins engine. But this dodge truck still seems to be something less desired for. I grew up around chevy's, so naturally I became accustomed to them. Yea, no vehicle manufacturer gets everything perfect, and I still maintain that if I could extract all the great points from each vehicle, I would have the vehicle closest to being perfect! But, considering I'm not a man made of money, I have to make due with the next best thing, improvising! :smart:Now, what excuse do I have? I'm not an older, wiser fella like some around here. I should still have plenty of spunk left in me considering I'm only …
