[AT] Had to read this twice

There is the story about the big fire at an industrial plant.  The paid FD 
had been fighting it for hours when the VFD appeared over the hill in their 
old pumper.  They roared down the road, past the rest of the firemen and 
straight into the middle of the burning building where they proceeded to put 
out the fire in short order.  The plant owners were so happy they gave the 
VFD a $10,000 donation.  The plant manager asked the Capt. of the VFD what 
he was going to do with the money.  He replied "well the first thing we're 
gonna do is fix the brakes on that danged pumper!"
