"Faith - Wilmington DE"

Why Wilmington Delaware if he lives in, and built the boat in, Poland Indiana? Has he incorporated it in the State of Delaware for some reason? Or just doesn't want to claim to be from here when he goes wherever? :(

I can remember this building having two uses in my lifetime. One as a pool hall and the other as storage for a local plastics manufacturing plant (Hagen's). It would be nice to see it in its original design but have to wonder how it would cost nearly half a million dollars to restore it to such a condition. It's not a large building.

Seventy-one percent of America's firefighters are volunteers. When we lose one of these special people, it hurts all firefighters. These people, both men and women, leave their families and sometimes their jobs to protect our own homes, lives and livelihoods when the call comes in for their help. It doesn't matter if that call is two o'clock in the morning or in the middle of their daughter's music recital, they go when they are needed. When you need them, they are there.

For a small, local volunteer fire department to lose one of their own in this manner is heartbreaking to all firefighters of this nation, paid and volunteer. All are professional in their conduct and response to your emergencies. To coldly and callously respond to this tragedy with a two word comment "seat belt" shows someone thinks they know it all, when they know little in reality.

I can not imagine how the firefighters of the West Union Community Fire Protection District feel at this moment, other than a deep sense of loss not only to themselves but to their own families and to the family of Mr Stone. My heartfelt condolences go out to each of them in this time of loss and grief. It is at this time when the surrounding volunteer fire departments will step up and take over duties of the West Union CFPD till after the funeral of Mr Stone. This is what firefighters and volunteer fire departments do in a time of need - they step up and give their time so others can go on in life.

The full video is much better than the short clip shown at WTHI.

I can not imagine the heartbreak and pain these families must be going through, both the Shook and Griffin families.

It is not up to us to point blame or make accusations (as has happened on the Facebook page for WTHI) but to think of the losses and heartache for both of these families. The Griffin family will also feel this heartache, we mustn't forget them in this tragedy as well. Prayers for both of the families.

Have you seen the title of this news story? "City says chickens violate code" It isn't me you have to convince, it's the City of Terre Haute. They say your chickens violate city code - which I guess would make my opinion from two years ago as valid today as it was then. But then again, it is (and was) just an opinion.

While the online application may be faster and reduce the amount of actual paperwork, the applicant must report to their local police agency ( or sheriff's office if you have a rural address ) to pay the licensing fee as well as have your fingerprints taken. This isn't a one-stop license to carry handgun completed from the comfort of your sofa. :)
