Fire go in sky. Make stars come from.

The height of a standard fir hydrant is 28.63 inches. The diameter of a standard fire hydrant is 10 inches.

No, I am almost positive that a firefighter cannot bust you for weed in your apartment. He's not authorized to search your apartment, and even if he reported you to the police, they would need a warrant to search your apartment, which they're not doing over a small amount of weed. Firefighters can't bust you, they aren't cops.

New England affectionate slang for Firefighter. This word was first used as a reference to firemen in the early 20th century in the Greater Boston area, and its origins are recognized as officially unknown by several authors. While it is now a widely accepted term in the fire service, it is almost exclusively used in New England, and almost exclusively used to bestow great praise and the highest levels of respect. To be called a "Good Jake" is the highest form of praise a Boston area firefighter can possibly receive from a peer.

The term "Jake" is most probably derived from the term "J-Key". The first street-corner fire alarm box system was invented and constructed in the city of Boston, and was based on a telegraph system, novel in its day. Inside each box, next to the automatic alarm mechanism that tripped when someone pulled the hook, there was a small telegraph tapper, called a telegraph key, that firemen could use to communicate back to headquarters once they arrived on scene. As time passed, many World War One veterans had become Boston firefighters, and the telegraphs that these men were familiar with were the U.S. Army issue J-3 portable telegraph key (known as the WWI "trench key"), as well as other military J-Series telegraph keys, which were all known commonly as "J-Keys". These veterans probably used this as a common slang for the keys they used inside their fire alarm boxes.

Being a "Good J-Key" probably meant a fireman who was cool under the pressure and could send clear Morse code. "J-Key" was eventually shortened to "Jake", and when spread to the public, "Jake" came to be a common term for firemen in general.

My neighbor is a Boston Jake.

That guy from Ladder 29 will always be there when the going gets tough. He's a Good Jake.

The best thing to do is take some fire science classes at a local college. Also join the junior firefighter program, i don't remember what its called though.

For most departments you must have a high school diploma. Some departments are now requiring two years of college before you can be hired. This is for paid departments, but I'm not sure about volunteer departments.

Everyone has a certain look in the future. So whoever had the rusty hair and unshaved face became a fireman. that also portrays the image of montag.

I can only answer for Florida, but to the best of my knowlege there is no age LIMIT. You must be at LEAST 18 years old, but as long as you are able to perform the agility requirments, your age above 18 is not a factor.

We never had trampolines, we had a"life net", it was a circle with a pad covered canvas that was held by 12 men and could catch someone from up to 5 stories. The last time I jumped in one was about 20 years ago.

A fire department or fire brigade (also known as a fire and rescue service or simply fire service) is a public or private organization that provides predominantly emergency firefighting and rescue services for a certain jurisdiction, which typically is a municipally, county or fire protection district. A fire department usually contains one or more fire stations within its boundaries, and may be staffed by career fire fighters, volunteer fire fighters, or a combination thereof referred to as a combination department.

An oncologist uses a lot of different types of high tech machines. This includes x-ray machines, MRI machines, and ultrasound machines.

I know that in some, if not most, of the larger fire departments, usually those who are paid and have scheduled hours to work, yes you can "live" in the firehouse. For as long as your shift is. In the smaller volunteer companies it is unusual to stay over night or "live" there.
