Fighting Fire With Humor
Everything is so tense where the Southern California fires are concerned. I guess I needed to know that fire fighters have fun sometimes. I found a great page of Wildland Fire Terms, which include lots of slang and acronym-substitutes. My husband has always talked about "O'Dark Thirty", but I didn't know it was left over from his days as a volunteer firefighter back in Tennessee.
