It means a lot coming from a writer that has been a role model for me for the past couple years . . . even though hockey only interests me through the eyes of others like you and my son :-). <br /><br />Barb, the book is a recurring and interesting idea. Not sure it would survive the conflict of interest committee, but it would be fun to make an attempt.

You can't keep a good writer down for long.<br /><br />Take a break, get into your job, settle into that house, spend time with family, put your feet up, drink tea or coffee and eat some of those good invented recipes you post on here. After the dust settles you might find yourself with time to blog again. Maybe this is the last post on THIS blog but it's impossible to say whether it will be the last post.<br /><br />And besides, does this mean you're finally going to collect your Spontaneous Combustion columns into a book?? I'd buy it! Do I get an autographed copy if I post a favourable review on Amazon? Have you checked out CreateSpace.com yet?

Perhaps a day will come when you can again engage the industry and the public through FFIC and social media to promote awareness, training, education and generally act like a digital fire service evangelist. <br />My smart wife and I have discussed at length. You're a natural. I hope you will be back soon.<br />Until then, congratulations on the new job and good luck with everything. <br /><br />GerryGerryhttp://teamoakville.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-847917804254799866.post-91194485276562359542012-05-28T21:58:37.936-04:002012-05-28T21:58:37.936-04:00A nom de plume is a neat idea, and it has crossed ...A nom de plume is a neat idea, and it has crossed my mind, but not sure about the pitfalls.

The OFC tried to replace the Pioneer (W.M) with a couple of very qualified instructors but the north missed having someone 'positioned' in the North. Having someone positioned with their finger on the pulse will be beneficial.<br />Your written word will be missed but your knowledge, experience and humour will be a great benefit to the Firefighters in the north. <br />Congratulations my friend.
