jansued Posted July 18, 2009 Posted July 18, 2009 INDEXED It was a nice summer morning downtown. Engine Company 3 just returned from a rubbish fire and stood outside the station, waiting for the next job. . Suddenly, they got a phone call: The yearly inspection, done by the fire chief and the mayor, is on the way! "Guys. all hands! Everybody clean up the station! They will be here in 20 Minutes" And like every year the chief and the mayor are in a bad, bad mood... "Listen up. Costs are exploding. We pay to much overtime. Jake, your haircut is an absolute No-Go! Additionally there are reports about your misbehavior!" At this point they Fireman Jake has to admit, that his relation to the lady with the tan bag started on a professional basis: . And - the water prank done by cookie made it in the news: Then they caught the rookie - the Mayors son - sleeping and waked him up... Finally, they did the old "I hide your pants and then pull the alarm- Prank" to the mayors son.. And so they started their inspection. Mayor: "Silver Helmets? Are you crazy? Why don't you've black helmets like every other firefighter in the US?" Chief: "Errr, mmm, Chrome. But therefore we just purchased one Airpack." Chief: "Hmm. I think I saw this tools somewhere else. Maybe in the TWILIGHT Zone.." Chief: "Ups. No handrails!" Mayor: "And the clock goes wrong. What kind of Fire Department is this?" Mayor: "Chief, what is this. Don't tell me it's grass and mud! Can you imagine what the citizens will say if they would know that the backyard of a public building looks like the Rain Forest?!" Mayor: "Here is where my money goes - the kitchen is better than mine! Oh, and Original Thüringer Bratwurst! I love it!" Chief: "Ups, safety again - this slide pole will really hurt you... And normally it has to made of .." Mayor: "Chrome, I guess. Chief, it's enough.." Chief: "This is the sofa I told you about. We need a new one, this is too small!" Mayor: "Nonsense. Let's try it. See, its good for us both..." Chief: "Mayor, come on. Let us play Ping-Pong - If I win, we get a chrome Slide Pole, if you loose, we get a new ladder truck.." Mayor: "Lets go for the roof." Chief: "Again no handrail...." Mayor: "You can't be to busy if there are bats in your alarm bell tower." Chief: " Maybe its because we don't use it anymore? Nowadays we have sirens..." At the end of the Inspection: Mayor: " Give me one reason why I should not close this station and let you guys empty trash cans.." Chief: " Or why I shoudn't discipline you. Maybe we should talk about your recreational possibilities in this station..." But finally, everybody got what he wants.. Mayor: "Mmmmm" Chief: Mmmmm, chrome!" Quote

CopMike Posted July 18, 2009 Posted July 18, 2009 Funny story - the Mayor seems to be a cousin of Homer, easily bribed! Thanks for all the laughs! CopMike Quote
Klaus-Dieter Posted July 18, 2009 Posted July 18, 2009 That's a very droll story, jansued! Very well done! Klaus-Dieter Quote
Rufus Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 Excellent story, very funny! I particularly like the pants gag. Does this set have reversible MF heads like the Medieval Market? Rufus Quote
legofan Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 Hahahah~ Wonderful review done in a very comical manner! Very nice! Thanks alot again for the hard work in producing a very funny comical review that is truely light-hearted and show case the beauties of this set ~~ Quote
prateek Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 Great comic As for the set, I don't think it lives up to the standards set by Cafe Corner and Green Grocer. This set doesn't even have a catchy name Quote
Derek Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 Haha I love it! I find it hilarious how the woman with the tan bag really has no business being there, other than her "professional" relationship with Fireman Jake. :laugh: Very well done!!!!!! Quote
ILikePi Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 Great story, jansued! It makes a great addition to the actual review. Does this set have reversible MF heads like the Medieval Market?No, the set includes regular smiley heads ( ). Quote
rriggs Posted July 19, 2009 Posted July 19, 2009 Errr.... Am I the only one who thinks that Fireman Jake is actually supposed to be Fireman Jane...?? Great story and great reviews. Thanks for these! Cheers Rog (who has now modified his 7239 Fire Engine to 19 studs long so it will fit in the new fire station! ) Quote
