    Firedepartment has a nice boat on a trailer. Need to slice go the tires in case they decide to drive off whit it, cant have that. Yesterday the bike ride to work whas like riding through a wall (unintentionally tried it once, didnt go that well) but the trip back home must have been a new record.
