Some say the world will end with fire.

Others say with ice.

From what I've tasted of desire

I hold with those that favor fire.

But if I had to perish twice,

I think I know enough of hate,

To say that for destruction ice,

Is also great and would suffice.

ANOTHER DAY ANOTHER DOLLAR (in the hole)

I am happy to be going back to work today at the job I enjoy. I really did have a good time last week going to the fire meeting but that is really just the change part of my life. You know a change is as good as a rest. I have always thought of the fire team as a way to get away from the daily grind and do something that I am really good at. It is also something (the fire) that usually goes away near the end of the assignment.

This is going to be a great week---I stole this statement from one of my friends but it surely applies:
"GOOD THINGS COME TO THOSE WHO WAIT---BUT ONLY THE THINGS LEFT BY THOSE WHO HUSTLE."

Have a nice day and get hustling!
