This is a pic of Charlie Greenway (whom I work with) with Sheriff Buford Pusser of McNairy Co. Tennessee. The pic was taken approx. 3 weeks before the death of Sheriff Pusser, at the Tri-Cities Regional Airport.
"Walking Tall" was the first 'R' rated movie that I ever saw. I was about 8 or 9 years old, and I went with my parents to see it. I was totally blown away by it, and I will remember that night for the rest of my life. I still love the movie, and the story behind it. I would have given anything to have met Sheriff Pusser.
Charlie got to meet the man. I got to check out his picture. I wish that I could've met him, before he was killed.

I got so tickled tonight. We had to go in on our day off for First Responder training. All of us guys on Night Shift have to attend. It kinda sucks, but our instructor is Jason Powell, who I worked with at 9-1-1, when we both worked there part time. Jason is now a Lieutenant with the Johnson City Fire Dept. and a Paramedic. Jason is a good guy. Anyway, we had to be there at 16:00, on a day off. We got out tonight at 21:20.
Anyway the following story is so funny (to me). It might be one of those deals, that if you weren't there, you won't get it. On the ride home, T.L. asked me if I ever had to give extended CPR to anyone while I was at the Sheriff's Dept. I replied that I hadn't (luck). He started telling me this story of a call he responded to, where he had to assist a paramedic giving CPR to a big, fat guy who was in Cardiac Arrest. He told me how they had dragged him off the bed into the floor, while the paramedic tried to restore the airway, and was giving him instructions on how to perform chest compressions. Anyway, T.L. had told me this story before, and I asked him - "Didn't you tell me before that you thought you had broke the guys ribs, while doing compressions?". And he was, like, yeah, that's the one. Then, I asked him, "Didn't you tell me that the guy died?".
He said "Yeah, the guy didn't make it". I about fell over, laughing. I wasn't laughing that the guy died, but just the way he said the guy didn't make it. Fucking Hilarious.
Anyway, I thought it was funny, and if u have a twisted sense of humor, and know T.L., you will too.
More later.

Evidently, tickets for the Vols Spring Game (the Orange & White Game) are gonna be limited due to Neyland Stadium renovations. Fan interest is at an all time high, due to our new 'Dream Team' staff. Anyway, me and T.L. are gonna go to the game, being that it is on our weekend off. I ordered our tickets today from UTSports.com. This is the first time in memory that I don't trust being able to get tix at the gate. Anyway, I am pumped and looking forward to the game.

Today is Saturday, on my weekend off. My lovely wife, Rusti, is out working in the yard. That's how she relaxes. It's in the 70's today, which is unusual, being that it's early March, and the fact that we've had a very cold winter. I'm just messing around on the computer, which is how I relax.
Rusti is such a great girl. She is definitely the ying to my yang, the alpha to my omega. I am so blessed to have her. I can't even fathom what I would do without her.
We have First Responder training this month, so not many days without having to trek to the Tri. Fuck, I am by no means a medic. I am already a Police Officer and an Aircraft Rescue Fire Fighter, now they want to add Medic to the list, as well as cutting back on our benefits. Jeez, oh Pete, more responsibilty and liability, and no additional pay to go along with it. I guess in these tumultuous economic times, I'm lucky to have a job.

T.L. is back from Fire Training. We are gonna be S.S. Free for a couple of days. He is taking off Wednesday, Thursday, Monday & Tuesday. He is gonna go see his 'Mommie' in Indiana. How lucky can we get. How unlucky can 'Mommie' be? Should make for a nice week. What will 500 do without his main teat-sucker there? Hope he survives it...lol.

Hey Guys....
I'm gonna try to keep this blog up to date. Today is Thursday, and I have to go back to the TRI on Friday Evening. T.L. is working 12 - 12 this week-end, so it will be me and S.S. after midnight. Jeez, oh, Pete, I dread it. Maybe the Janitors will drop in and share their fucking wisdom. S.S. practically worships the fucking janitors. They are his peers, evidently, and maybe his heroes. He holds them in much higher regard than he does the actual fucking Officers on his shift.
