The Fire Department has Connections

September 28th 2008

I love it when the fire department has connections. There is nothing quite as sad as a fire department without connections.

I hope fire departments everywhere are connected and have connections. Nothing worse than to see those trucks with sirens blaring driving down the street round and round because they don’t have connections.

There are lots of jokes about disconnected firetrucks like why fire engines are red and the old one about what begins with the first letter and ends with the last three.

Fire Engines Are Red

Because there are 12 inches in a ruler
A queen is a Ruler
The Queen Mary is a Ship
Ships are in the Ocean
Fish are in the Ocean
Fish have fins
Fins are from Finland
Finland is next to Russia
Russians are Red
Fire engines are always rushin

Fire Engines Are Red

These are both old jokes associated with disconnected fire departments.  Now you can see why I’m relieved to see Fire Departments with Connections. (Please Note the sign is red)
