I just noticed a minute ago that NJFFSA16 (Known to some as Ed) Has passed 7,000 POSTS !! Congrats on that milestone, young man.

[Firefighter1219]

Holy crap Ed! That's a lot of freakin posts! Maybe you have too much free time on your hands, or maybe you just like to talk a lot. Who knows? Anyhow, congrats.

[FightingDevil]

Um, wow, I'm speechless....something Ed definately wouldn't know about!!! KIDDING NJ!!!

CONGRATULATIONS!!! Keep that info coming!!

[RspctFrmCalgary]

I noticed that too! 10K can't be far behind :D Way to go, Ed!

If FH.com ain't paying you, they should be.
At least a free T-shirt.
Gift certificate?
Congratulations, Ed.
I read all of your stuff thanks to Evelyn Wood speed reading!
I can only dream of 7000.

Hey, Harve:
You're no slouch yourself.
See you went over the 3000 mark.
Way to go.

With time and a little typing, you too can have as many posts as me...wait that's not that many. I'm ashamed...:D

Seriously though, it's not the amount of posts, it's the quality and thought behind them. You can have 1000 posts and be a 'tool' but have 500 and be respected.

Or, consequently, you can have 7000 (or 3000 like Art or Harve) like Ed and take the time to share years of experience...along with the occasional joke!

Either that or some people have WAYYY to much time on thier hands!!

[arhaney]

Holy Cow! That's a lot of posts. Thanks for all the knowledge passed along!

[1835Wayne]

Where is he anyway??? Somehow he missed this thread! Is he resting on his laurels????

Just kidding Ed! Keep up the good work!

[Weruj1]

Congrats Ed !!!!!!

[SAFD46Truck]

Congrats Bro, now does workmans comp cover carpal tunnel??:D

[NJFFSA16]

Thank you all!

I've been just a wee bit busy with coverage of a Pope that died recently.....and a colleague who has been diagnosed with lung cancer. Some of you know that while I'm not hiking the fire roads, I work for ABC News. Although I knew Peter was under the weather...the extent of his illness was unknown until we received his e-mail. I ask you keep him in your thoughts and prayers. This will be a tough time in the New York studios....a very tough time.

I think the first one to ten thousand should have a feature article done about them on Firehouse.com!

Just my opinion...

[superchef]

Ed
Congrats on passing 7000 posts. This time dinner is on me.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your colleagues Ed. Take care.

[StayBack500FT]

Ed,

I am sorry, for some reason I missed your post...my reply seemed rather callous following what you said. My thoughts and prayers are also with you and your co-workers at ABC.

Congrats Ed!! Keep up the good work. One question for you. How many keyboards did it take?

[fireguy919]

Prayers go out to you and your group ed

[MalahatTwo7]

WELL DONE THE GUN CREW! - Deck Gun that is! :D Keep up the good work on all fronts Ed.

And yes, prayers to Mr Jennings too. Tis a sad thing to have to deal with.

[captstanm1]

Congratulations my friend! i have given up on ever trying to catch up to you. Besides..............you have way more sources than me!

It is a pleasure to be a part of this group that is so full of information and fun to be around.....

My hat is off to you!

[captstanm1]

I think the first one to ten thousand should have a feature article done about them on Firehouse.com! Hey...how about the first one to 10,000 and the second one to 5000...... Me and Ed together........:eek:

Ed.....I too failed to pass on my prayers to Peter Jennings. Please....if you can find a way to get a message to him, tell him that this band of brothers and sisters is behind him and wish him well. Our collective thoughts and prayers are with him, his immediate family and his ABC family as well....

[captstanm1]

I just looked back. A lot of crusties have replied here to congratulate ED. WE have all been around the block a while and the posts for these veterans total 32,467 (up to the time this one posts). That is a lot of knowledge, wisdom and good times...:eek:

Hats off to all you brotehrs and sisters!

[CJMinick390]

Ed and Stan, you guys are incredible. I feel so unworthy to be posting in your presence! Seriously, thanks to your contributions to the forums. It is guys liky you that make it worth coming here.

Sounds good to me!

[firenresq77]

Congrats, Ed..... Our thoughts are with Peter......

[sassy1]

Well, I hope I'm not a "crusty" but congratulations to anyone who has the intelligence and dilligence to keep up good conversation over the years! Also, all my hopes to your ABC family-- Mr. Jennings has contributed and become part of history itself. What ever political differences we all may have, accolades go out to someone who has given such devotion to working in the public forum. Humanity is greater for having had his service.:)

By the time I get to 10,000 the internet will be obsolete.


Congrats on hitting 7,000. Condolences also.
