tina of @ email: @: I once asked on a religious sorta chat page how it was that a pastor could rationalize living in a gated community. It seriously makes no sense to me. A pastor who actually DID live in a gated community said I shouldn't be such an angry person. I was all like WHA!?!?

Date: Monday February 16th, 2009 8:42 Comment 174990
tina of @ email: @: Here it is: We knew from owning and renting several very diverse houses that size mattered to us in the opposite way of the norm. The smaller the better. So much was clear. We were encumbered with excessive heating bills, acres of dusty carpets, weekends spent on boring upkeep instead of climbing, all the hallmarks of 'too big'. There were rooms I visited only once a month, mostly just in passing while searching for lost objects. And the multitude of complex systems adorning these homes constantly broke down. Plumbing disasters of all kinds, gas leaks, faulty appliances. Rodents had a free backstage pass thru hundreds of uncharted cavities, ducts and passages. Rancid food items of unspecified origin hid in the corners of cavernous cabinets, while a forest of toxic cleaning containers stuck to petrified muck deep under the sink.

d2p of email: @: Halligan - 1. A Halligan bar (also called a Halligan tool) is a special tool commonly used in the fire and rescue service. It was designed by and named after Hugh Halligan, a First Deputy Fire Chief in the New York City Fire Department, in 1948, based upon the well known Kelly tool. The Halligan is a multipurpose tool for prying, twisting, punching, or striking. It consists of a claw (or fork), a blade (wedge or adze), and a tapered pick, which is especially useful in quickly forcing open many types of locked doors. Either the adze end or fork end of the tool can be used to break through the latch of a swinging door by forcing the tool between the door and door jamb and prying the two apart, striking it with another Halligan, a Denver tool or a flat-head axe. Using a K-tool and the adze end, a lock cylinder can easily be pulled. There are many other uses of the Halligan tool, including vehicle extrication and opening of walls. 2. Halligan Bar - tavern on N Lincoln in Chicago

On the drive home from Fire Academy there was a call out just as we rolled into town. 6 hours later, sadly, the 2-story wood log house is a goner...totalled.... punched in a second story window with a Halligan and when I pulled it out it came back with a little kid's shoe and the screen material...sad...they aprently lost everything. No injuries though so all is well. I wonder how much this fire stuff makes the lungs die off? can't be a good thing.
