A firefighter died and went to hell where he finds a wall of clocks. After seeing
all these clocks on a wall, with his friend's names under them, he asked the
devil, what the clocks mean? "That`s easy, each time one of your friends
mess up on earth, their clock speeds up one hour." says the devil. "I don`t
see the Chiefs clock anywhere?" the fireman says. The devil replied, "Oh
him, we have his down in the basement, we`re using it for a fan."
A man who worked at a fire hydrant factory was always late for work. When
confronted by his boss the man explained: "You can't park anywhere near
this place!"
There were these 3 Volunteer Firemen who always went bird hunting together and they always rented a hunting dog name Rex
from a local farmer. Rex was a great dog and would always hold point and find any birds they shoot. One year they didn't go
hunting and the farmer rented Rex out to some City Firemen who used him that season. The next year the volunteer guys went
to rent Rex from the farmer for hunting but the farmer had bad news for them. He told them Rex was no longer any good for
hunting and didn't have a replacement for him and to tell the city firemen they were not welcome there any more and that if he
saw them he would probably shoot them for what they did to Rex.
The Volunteers asked the farmer what the they did that could be so bad. Well the farmer said last year when they rented Rex it
all started off fine until one of the guys decided to rename him. Well what's wrong with that they asked? The farmer said they
renamed him CHIEF and now all he does is sit on his ass and bark all the time.
