Just saw a piece on the local news. A house caught fire. They said the
people got out. They were interviewing a VERY handsome fire fighter and
he said "We care as much.....we care an awful lot about the pets and
try to do as much as we can" (Notice, he rethought "care as much about
the pets as humans lest he outrage someone <g>) 3 cats were saved and
given oxygen at the scene (they showed this too. Showed a kitty licking
oxygen. There were two itty bitty kittens with a mom cat.

Where was this? I just tried to find it on Google, but nothing recent
came up. When I put in today's date, I got no hits at all.

Thank you! It sounds like they didn't rescue all the animals, though. :(

I do not know. Twice now, once in my old apartment and once in my new one,
my door has been knocked upon and I open up to see a group of firemen.
Almost every single one could pose for a magazine. All ages. All colors. All
varieties. Phermones raging. I mean, is that a pre-requisite for being a
fireman?

LOL. I know a fireman. I knew him before he became a fireman. He's not
especially handsome, but not ugly either. Just normal-looking. But when
he's in that uniform... I don't know. Something just happens when they
put on the uniform. :oP

My friend's ex fiance is a firefighter.  And also a big jerk, a cheater
and an unsupportive partner.

I will admit that he is not painful to look at though.

LOL  I had exactly two dates with a firefighter years ago.  The first date,
all he could do was talk about himself.  I gave him a second chance and went
out with him again.  Same thing.  The guy was really stuck on himself which
in my book makes him a jerk.  Probably wouldn't be a very supportive
partner.  He made sure I got a copy of the Firefighters Calendar in which he
was Mr. May.  Not bad looking at all, but still a jerk.

I adopted a kitten to a fire fighter. He was very cute, and the kitten
was too. He sent me a picture of him, his boyfriend and his "baby girl"
6 months after they adopted her. His BF was also a fire fighter and
equally cute. That is one lucky kitty to get to sleep with those two!

The reminder that when everyone else is running out, they are going in?

Again, this reminds me of the most touching book dedication I've ever read,
"This is for the men who died going *up* the stairs." (in memorial for the
firefighters of 9/11).
