I'll give it a shot......who are the Hotshots? Hint: they have something to do with fire! I correlate the term with Smoke Jumpers, wildfire fighters that get dropped from aircraft to get into rough terrain and attack the fire from the advancing edge; very dangerous. Is that the same, or am I wrong? |

Is that the same, or am I wrong? I think we can say that's a right answer. I was reading the news about the fires that have broke out in Virginia due to the drought and they were talking about the 'Hotshots,' an elite crew of special firefighters who are super-coordinated and trained to deal with those types of forest fires. -------------------- The truth is, everyone is going to hurt you.

What activity will take place at 9:00 PM EDT tonight? ...depends on your marital status and the amount of alcohol consumed beforehand! Otherwise, there's a *ahem debate on to determine what level of incompetancy we the people want in the White House! It's gonna be a tough choice! -------------------- The Revolution has been in effect...go get a "late pass!" |
