• Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

26 FDNY firehouses out of service over vaccine mandate staff shortage.

NewYorkPost

The FDNY shut down 26 firehouses across the Big Apple as of 7:30 a.m. Saturday because of staff shortages caused by the vaccination mandate, The Post has learned. Rep. Nicole Malliotakis, a Republican who represents Staten Island and Brooklyn, tweeted Saturday that five of the companies were in her district — and said it’s Hizzoner who could have blood on his hands. “If someone dies due to a slower emergency response, it’s on Bill de Blasio and his overreaching mandates. I hope this fool fixes it ASAP!” she tweeted. Twenty six companies out of service is an unconscionable number,” said Councilman Joe Borelli, a Staten Island Republican who chairs the committee on fire and emergency management. “The firefighters who are unable to work have all been tested within the week and are not Covid positive, and I doubt New Yorkers care about the vaccine status of the person applying defibrillators to their chest.” The FDNY’s vaccination rate was at 72 percent at the end of Friday. the city’s deadline for workers to get at least one shot of the Covid vaccine. The mandate is expected to be enforced beginning Monday. The NYPD’s number stood at 84 percent vaccinated. The FDNY blamed the short staffing on firefighters calling out sick, with one insider saying “hundreds” of firefighters have been taking medical leave to protest the mandate. “It’s definitely a sickout. It’s a job action,” the insider said. “If they call in sick they have to go to the medical office. The medical office is overwhelmed

Local paper says it shouldn't matter, it's who he is now. Calling it negative campaigning :rolleyes:
 
Don’t wait too long on the liquor. My local store (admittedly not one of the huge chains) has been out of Woodford Reserve for a couple weeks. They told me the manufacturer is having trouble getting the glass bottles. Apparently the supply chain issues have extended to glass bottles. He also said Jack Daniels is only producing their black label right now (and not any of the flavors) because of the glass shortage and obviously their black label is the best seller. He also said the small beer makers cannot get any aluminum cans because they are all being claimed by Bud/Coors/Miller.
Times like this I am glad I have a 250 bottle wine cellar. Might not be liquor, but I can still get messed up.
