1001 posts

I missed a huge milestone on the last post. It was the 1000th post.

I hope you guys have enjoyed the blog thus far. It is hard to believe that there have been 1000 posts to date. What the hell have been all the posts about? The simple answer: everything related to Roanoke Firefighters.

This may not be the busiest fire related blog on the net, this may not be the most popular fire blog on the net, but it is one of the oldest.

A lot of fire related blogs come and go. There are fire blogs for all types of readers, however I think you will find that this is one of the best localized fire blogs on the net. Not because of me, but because of the topic.

It has been fun giving the Roanoke Fire EMS Department, the Roanoke Fire Fighters Association, and the respective firefighters international attention. I couldn't have done it without you all and the readers.

By the way, check out the Virginia Fire and Rescue Magazine for a write-up and pictures on the 13th Street fire.

I will continue to showcase the Roanoke Firefighters, add a little humor, include some politics, post news and incidents, piss some of you off, and vocalize issues on the forefront of our minds. All you all have to do is keep it real.

See you at the big one!

Congrats again Rhett and great job on the blog. This is a great site for information on RFD and I know sometimes we get out of hand, but it is a great way to vent. I think you do a great job on being fair towards everyone and that says a lot about you so keep up the great work.

Figured you would have put something on here about Eddie leaving by now? Good luck Capt. I wish you the best.
