    I wear kilts pretty regularly

    I am also a firefighter...structure, and wildland (aka "brush bunny")

    presently I reserve with a small dept. just outside of Tucson called Avra Valley, it's about a 500 square mile district, mostly farm, "prefab " homes......but we are expirencing rapid growth! we will have a total of about 6000 homes that should be complete by summers end, and more to come.

    everyones tryin to get out of the city so their comming out here.
    I start Paramedic school in Aug. and then (hopefully) I will become a fulltime benefitted member. in the mean time I will do the wildland /reserve thing.

    lookin forward to a GOOD (read lots of fires) fire season cause the more fires I get the less I will have to work during school.

    I am also hoping to get an interagency pipeband going since our IAFF local comprises of several FD's. as of right now if a piper is needed for Avra Valley I'm the one they call.
    hence the name Kilted Fire Piper
    Irish diplomacy: is telling a man to go to he)) in such a way that he looks forward to the trip!

    I've been a jake here in Boston for the last ten years. Not many kilt wearers other than the gaelic brigade, and only then for parades and such.
