Are you sure this is all we’re supposed to wear? I’m sure there’s supposed to be a coat or something.
Posted on January 4th, 2013 at 5:25 amNo, no. The woman who gave me the tour on my first day said only to wear the pants and sometimes the helmet and stand out front here like this. Being a fireman’s easier than I thought it would be.
Kathryn S. says:
The captain said that an emergency call came in from Jill Shalvis. She’s looking for her next three heroes and we’re volunteering.

Sorry, but my captioning went into a short story.
“Hey, does your pant tag say “Property of Jill Shalvis?”
Posted on January 4th, 2013 at 7:29 am“Yeah, Captain says she’s some award winning writer and she needs us to model for some book she’s writing.”
“Don’t we get coats?”
“Nope. Heard they don’t appeal to her readers.”
“Okay…so it’s just muscles and tats, right?”
“Yeah, and we have to be at her place after lunch. I heard she serves milk and cookies.”
“Cookies? Are you sure she’s on the up-and-up?”
“Can’t say for sure, but stay alert. The books she writes are sexy romances.”
“Is she married?”
“Yup.”
“Jeez,not only do we have to watch our ‘cookies’, we also have to watch out for her angry husband!”
“Yeah…fire fighting sounds easier every minute.”
Amanda A. says:
Dude in middle to the man on right:
“Man this no underwear requirement from Jill is brutal.”
Dude on right:
“If it gets me that woman’s cookies…it’s all good”
Dude on left is eavesdropping and started daydreaming about Jill’s cookies!!!!!!!!!!!

Middle guy asks the guy on his left: Do these pants make me look fat?
Posted on January 4th, 2013 at 8:29 amGuy on his left: No man, we all look the same. This is what Jill wants us to wear for the book cover so stop whining.
Guy on his right just stays quiet and keeps checking out his butt.
Great pic. Thanks for sharing.

Posted on January 4th, 2013 at 8:31 amFireman#2 “Oh you bet I did, would I ever like to munch on those cookies”.
Fireman #3 “Man not only did I look, but I took a bite of those cookies”.
Steffi K says:
Dude we’re supposed to stand here and wait for the girl to show up
Yeah thats what I heard I hope she’s wearing her donkey slippers last time I saw her I swear she had me at the slippers
Where’s your hat she likes us shirtless and with our hats so she can wear it and feel safe
Posted on January 4th, 2013 at 8:32 amLaurie says:
I think it defeats the purpose of being firemen if our hotness sets the fires. Just sayin’
Posted on January 4th, 2013 at 8:47 amTerry K says:
So, which one of you blockheads lost the bet with Jill Shalvis?
Posted on January 4th, 2013 at 8:58 amGina S. says:
Should we button these?
Posted on January 4th, 2013 at 9:47 amMarcy says:
“You put your right shoulder in…”
Middle guy to Right guy: No! Your OTHER right. Sheesh!
Right guy: I’m so confused.
Left guy: I’m just gonna’ stand here covering my goods with my hat and looking pretty. Maybe that way Jill won’t think I know these two morons.

1st Fireman – “Hey dude’s, I don’t want to frighten you, but that’s either a shark down there or some crazy female swimming towards us!”

” Hey, what is your excuse for not wearing a shirt?”
” What shirt?”
Very nice pic by the way. It made my Friday hotter!
Posted on January 4th, 2013 at 11:07 amLes says:

Fireman 1: I flex good.
Posted on January 4th, 2013 at 2:02 pmFireman 3: No I don’t use baby oil, I use man oil!

Hunky hotman on left: “I’ve got the helmet.”
Posted on January 4th, 2013 at 4:13 pmBurning love in center: “I’ve got the hose.”
Sizzling stud on right: “You know, she keeps calling us to come get her cat out of the tree. It’s funny how the cat is only on the first limb, three feet off the ground. I know she’s challenged when it comes to height but… Do you think something more could be going on?”
Kai W. says:
Hot alpha males. Firemen…I’m drooling over them.

do these pants make my arms look big?
Posted on January 7th, 2013 at 9:27 amSue Peace says:
Yum and thanks!!! LOL, I have a fireman story for you. The other night my Mum’s neighbour (condo) finally managed to set his mattress on fire. One of my sisters lives with her and phoned me very panic stricken so I went over there (5 minutes away) in case they couldn’t go back in and needed a ride (she would not have been able to drive)…it’s 2330 and I’ve just washed every bit of make up off my face, my hair is in a knot on top of my head and I have on my ratty sweats…I get there and there are cute firemen everywhere!!!
And I’m pretty sure some of them would have looked like this if they’d undressed a bit for me.

Middle Fireman: Am I the only one not oiling my body?
Posted on January 8th, 2013 at 7:01 amRight Fireman: Dude, chicks dig the shiny muscles. It looks like we’ve been working ourselves in a sweat all day!
