Funny story. While I was getting gas in our town, a semi made a right turn and hit a 50 year old light pole, not working, but still there. I told the girl next to me, "watch this". Now there was no damage to the truck, street, cars, etc. Withing a few minutes there were 2 city police cars, 3 country police cars, 2 ambulances, 2 fire trucks and who know's who else. The fire station was a 1/2 block down the street and they could have looked out the door to see nothing happened. My point being at budget time, the fire chief will get up and say "our department responded to 595 incidents last year so we need more money etc, etc, etc.
