69 Runner
ADMIN wif a corner office (Deceased - RIP)
One dark night outside a small town in Minnesota, a fire started inside
the local chemical plant, and in a blink it exploded into massive flames.
The alarm went out to all the fire departments from miles around. When
the volunteer fire fighters appeared on the scene, the chemical company
president rushed to the fire chief and said, "All of our secret formulas
are in the vault in the center of the plant, and they must be saved! I
will give $50,000 to the fire department that brings them out intact."
But the roaring flames held the firefighters off. Soon more fire
departments had to be called in as the situation became desperate.
As the firemen arrived, the president shouted out that the offer was
now $100,000 to the fire department who could bring out the company's
secret files.
From the distance, a lone siren was heard as another fire truck came
into sight. It was the nearby Norwegian rural township volunteer fire
company composed mainly of Norwegians over the age of 65. To everyone's
amazement, the little run-down fire engine, operated by these
Norwegians, passed all the newer, sleek engines parked outside the
plant.....and drove straight into the middle of the inferno. Outside,
the other firemen watched as the Norwegian old timers jumped off and
began to fight the fire with a performance and effort never seen
before. Within a short time, the Norsk firefighters had extinguished
the fire and saved the secret formulas.
The grateful chemical company president joyfully announced that for
such a superhuman feat he was upping the reward to $200,000, and walked
over to personally thank each of the brave, though elderly, Norwegians.
The local TV news reporters rushed in after capturing the event on
film, asking, "What are you going to do with all that money?"
"Vell," said Ole Larsen, the 70-year-old fire chief, "da furst thing ve
do is fix da brakes on dat focking truck."
