Ahhh but can we really put a price on the life of our fids??

Evidently those not emotionally attached can...(the rescuers)

My boss thought this story was hilarious...I could see myself doing it though

Firedept was around $10,000.00 and the coast guard was another $7,000.00.
Ouch. I'd hate to pay that bill but I would of course over time. Maybe that guy will set up some kind of donation fund.

Wow, he had to pay that himself? I thought the fire dept and coast guard were taxpayer funded?

But what price do we put on the lives of our fids! Good on him!
