metaldad update
Hey gang! I know I haven't been around here much as of late . Been on fb way more I know. Well in not so many words, I won the lottery! Actually I got accepted at the Chicago Fire Academy. I'm going through EMT training for 3 months then firefighter training. It's DAMN tough! It's like boot camp that let's you go home every night. But don't call it boot camp lol! Gotta hit the books and build my endurance! I'm Three weeks in so far . Tough but I can do it. Gotta give the bag a rest temporarily and looks like I'm missing yet another gathering. But this time next year, I'll have the greatest schedule on Earth working the greatest job on Earth! So maybe there's hope for me yet lol!

MD, great news! Tough it out, Patrick, it will be well worth it. The bag and the gathering can be put on hold. This is way more important. All your speed bagging friends are pulling for you. Good luck, my friend.

Congratulations, MD!
This is fantastic news about your acceptance into the Chicago Fire Academy! I've heard that the training can be grueling, but it will all be worth it in the end. Congratulations, Patrick!
