Maybe you should stick to the topic then, you don't seem to be too good at off the cuff straying. So you have problems with letting it go then, that's why you should stick to the topic. Me? I'd love to discuss the topic, I only made the post to try and get you to do such....What are your thoughts on the topic of the thread? Oh, a teachable moment....How arrogantly funny of you....Who proclaimed you the boards teacher, hmmmm? Did anyone ask for your teaching skills to be employed? Or is it that you consider yourself just so smart that you have a duty to open your mouth and attack others with it? I've met people like you before, they are as annoying in real life as you seem to be here with your condescending tone of "teaching" us all something...It's laughable...Tell you what, why don't you give some relevant discourse on the firefighter that refused to cross the street, you know, the topic? I'm sure you know that, because you know all right? So much that you feel you can teach us all something....So, come on smartest person on the planet, teach us all something....Tell us your grand wisdom, that no one gives a **** about. Spew forth your pearls of wisdom, your pinnacle of enlightenment that will cause the sky to open, and chorus of angels to trumpet in your mere utterances.... Gheeze! Talk about dumb things to say.....:roll: Generally speaking though, on the topic of the thread, you know the reason we are typing? I think that the firefighter that refused to help should be fired, and there needs to be a serious investigation into what went wrong there so it can be fixed. One of the things that helps when you buy a house, is that if you live in proximity to a fire station. Insurance rates can be lower for those locations...If this sort of thing becomes the norm, that certainly won't be the case anymore.
