Neighbors home caught fire today!!

[TEXAN AVIATOR]

Today, I went over to my friend’s house in Magnolia. He just graduated from Texas A&M and I offered to give him a hand moving. When I arrive he was mowing the lawn. His Hemi and SS are parked in the yard to avoid rocks from hitting it. So I pull my mustang right behind the truck toss my hat on, and begin to get out. When I open the door, I glance at his neighbor’s house, right next door. Something catches my eye and I glace back, I see what looks like flames in the window. So I think fireplace? It's 85degrees out here no way! I get out and stare for a moment then realize there is a fire in his neighbor’s home. So I sprint over to the window and the wall is on fire inside a room. I then go to the door and go inside looking for people and nobody answer my calls. So I look from the door I went into, towards a window in the back of the home and the family is in the back yard swimming. So I run around the back of the house and yell to them; they have no idea their home is on fire. They all begin screaming and coming around the house. I then call 911 on my cell and get the fire department dispatched. It takes the fire department 30minutes to arrive at the scene; I checked time when they arrived. By the time they get there the home is completely engulfed in flames. Long story short the home burned to the ground.

Then come to find out his neighbor, the owner of the home is the Mayor and just got elected today! He thanked me time and time again since there we're 4 young children there and going in and out of the home. I had to give a report to the fire marshal, he was not please with the 30minutes since the home is within 5 miles of the station. Anyway, I had another eventful Saturday and thought I'd share.

After all this we unloaded the truck, and went to a car show; followed by Hooters. It's late and I've got to hit the sack but thought this was a rather interesting story and I'd share. Excuse any grammar mistakes, I'm dead tired.

Have you been checked for IwannabeSpiderMan disease?

Yea, texan aviator...you been on 911 more than anyone I know. You might want to think about getting your degree in Criminal Justice and get a job on one those big Texas Police Departments and do some "world saving".

Back when I thought I was going to be a "world saver", I thought it was all about knocking punk's heads in, running eluders into bridge abutments, shooting armed robbers and getting wife beaters to do the "funky chicken" in front of their kids.

You actually make me believe there is more to helping people besides placing a beligerant drunk driver into the "six pack" configuration and tossing him face down on the back seat of a cruiser or patting down gang members for Tec-9's!

Lmao I don't have a clue what my deal is lately, but yesterday was just flabbergasting.

Some people don't get involved enough. Many people would figure that calling 911 would be sufficient. You did a good job, I am sure the fire department will have to answer to the mayor elect about the horrendous response time. Keep up the good work and remember, someday you may need the favor returned and I hope that person cares as much as you do.

Dude, sorry for the hijack, but flyifrvfr, you seriously need to do something about that signature line. You are way, WAY off! It goes like this:

"We have clearance, Clarence. Roger, Roger. What's our vector Victor? What? Huh? Who?!"

Please watch Airplane 6 or 7 more times. Then fix your signature line. Thank you.



Oh yeah, and on the original subject, remember Texan Aviator, with great power comes great responsibility.

Texan between the house fire and the mugger in the span of like a week.....sheesh... What the heck is going on man? Are you following trouble? or is trouble following you??

Let me get this straight. With all of the happenings in the world today, you are worried about an incomplete quote from a movie. I have that signature line because my name is Victor. I can't count the times someone has said the line from the movie once they know my name.

Oh by the way, I'm an unemployed flight instructor, and even I can find something more productive to do then to watch a movie just to clarify a quote from the movie.

 

[Bluto]

Lighten up Victor! I was just messing with you. That's what the means. But now that you bring it up, attention to detail is an important aspect of professionalism. Do you put as much care into your resumes when you send them out looking for flight instructing jobs? Sorry dude. That is a movie most pilots are well familiar with and misquoting it so horribly is just sloppy. I was really just trying to help. If there's anything I can do to help you with your job search, let me know.

ps To all the Stripes fans out there: Any of you homos call me Victor , and I'll kill yeh.

OK, OK, OK. I can accept the poetic license you've used to substitute Victor for Francis, but I just can't sit silently by and allow you to blend two lines from the conversation into one.

In the first line he explains that his name is Francis, and he instructs them to call him Psycho. He says, "Any of you guys call me Francis, and I'll kill you."

Later in the conversation, after cautioning everyone to keep their paws off his stuff, he says, " Any of you homos touch me, and I'll kill you."

Of course, that's when Sergeant Hulka repsonds, "Lighten up, Francis."

The homo reference is in the touching admonition, not in the name admonition.

 

[flyifrvfr]

Actually, that is poetic. I got admonished for incompletely referencing a line from a movie and the person who admonished me incorrectly quoted from another movie. Tony C, good job picking that up man, mega props..

P.S.

I know you were messing with me and my response was not meant to be as harsh as it sounded. I made that line my signature line because most people say it the exact way I typed it. I'm really not quoting a movie as much as I am quoting people. No, I put more thought and care into my resume and I am certain I will find a job reguardless of my lack of the movie Airplane knowledge.

TonyC,
Ouch. You cut me man. Cut me deep. Of course, you are right. I humbly apologize to you, Bill Murray, Sergeant Hulka, and Flyifrvfr, for my insolence. I am appropriately humbled, and stand corrected. Thanks for straightening me out.

I'm sorry, friend, but I just had to do that. Of course I'll accept your apology, but you'll have to answer to Francis, err, I mean Psycho.
