The Forestry Commission needs to answer the phone. Got nothing to do with the brush fires, but it might!

Brush fires are a mess. Job well done by all.

What is this? firebug not complaining? Unreal! You must have had a one on one with Danny. Did you see the light through the smoke screen? Don't pretend. We still want to hear about those 'qualifications' you have and how good you are at putting out fires. Don't be starting any fires now.

I know who fire bug is! He lives on Smyrna Ch Rd at the Pike Upson line! Yes I know you Fire Bug!

Good Lord, is that all you got? Get educated and then I may give you some attention.
#6 Firebug on 02/28/11 at 06:18 PM
You sure are grasping there firefighter because you are not even close. You and Danny need to find something else to occupy your time other than worrying about me.

Firefighter, I don't read the comments on most of these stories or read the poll cat because of things like this. I wanted to inform you that my name is Cody King and I live on Smyrna Church rd. All I have to say is please don't hide behind a title on here and accuse people of things. I am not scared to put my name on here so I have nothing to hide. If I have something to say about brushfires or Danny Henderson I will say it to him. If you want to bring me up or have any questions you apparently know where I live so feel free to stop bye and talk face to face. I probably wont get back on here and read your response so if you have a clever come back just rember I gave you an invation to stop bye.

My name is Cody King, and I am the person that lives on Smyrna Church Rd. @ the Pike Upson line, that firefighter is making reference to. I don't know who firefighter or fidebug is so I guess this message is to you "firefighter". You don't know as much as you thank you do. Don't get on this public forum and hide behind a mask. I HAVE NOTHING BAD TO SAY ABOUT DANNY HENDERSON OR ANY OTHER PIKE COUNTY VOLUNTEER. I think they do a valuable service. To sum things up I want to tell you that apparently you know where I live so stop bye anytime and found out who I am so you wont get on this forum and sound ignorant.

Wrong again! What are my initials? Huh? You don't know! Firebug rules!! TFB
#10 Firebug2 on 03/01/11 at 10:51 AM
Are you saying that YOU are the only "firefighter" who lives on Smyrna Church Rd? Look around.
#11 Firebug on 03/01/11 at 09:09 PM
Come on folks, there is no need to accuse innocent people and point fingers blindly just for exploratory purposes. When I blog I have a purpose and I defiantly don't make false accusations.

Regardless of who is inquiring; be it ex-Danny Chief, ff, or the polecaters, my anonymity is of the highest-quality it is impossible to crack the code. I am often emulated by less educated citizens, FF’s etc. here on the PJR and I just ask that you direct your comments towards me and not innocent people.

defiantly? hah!...the word is, definitely. things getting a little hot for you Firebug?

The word is out! you need many more years of OJT or you will never make the grade.
#13 A professional not a volunteer on 03/05/11 at 04:05 PM
Why is there so much tension among the volunteers here? You would have thought things would have gotten better since Henderson was fired or are there lingering supporters that can't let the ex go? I know a few of you all here and I must say you do a good job but I am suprised that so many volunteers act like children. FYI, Henderson is long gone or is it Henderson that is keeping the pot stirred up?

You all be safe.
#14 molena fire-putter-outer on 03/06/11 at 09:18 PM
Good try Firebug! We know that is you stirring the pot. Professional? Never! Joker? Yes! hahahah
#15 A Professional on 03/07/11 at 02:06 PM
Ignorance doesn’t deserve attention.
#16 Big Brother and Little Sister on 03/07/11 at 06:34 PM
All of you rode a true professional right out of town. Fire Chief Danny Henderson had just started building a supreme fire force in Pike. We got him here, dumb peoples ran him off. Hiring Henderson was probably the only smart move Marro and Swift accomplished.
#17 Firebug on 03/08/11 at 06:06 PM
Can you two say inbred......Henderson was the worst thing for Pike Fire. I told you many moons ago he lack knowledge, experience, and education for that position. He quit his job because he refused to runs a medical call, then lied to the CM & BOC about the circumstances. His old boss sent down a letter explaining his demise and the polecat-5 still believed his sorry story.

A true leader is truthful regardless & Henderson thought he was the Messiah of Pike. Now, after the fall from grace there still are less educated followers that still "Have A Dream."

Far be it that I quash a dream so "dream on"!!!
