And I tell you, every one who acknowledges me before men, the Son of man also will acknowledge before the angels of God; but he who denies me before men will be denied before the angels of God.Luke 12:8-9

I saw Ladder 49 on Saturday night. It was a fairly good film about firefighters. The great thing about films is that they occasionally change your perceptions and opinions. I previously had a negative opinion about firemen because of some hidden news footage shown on TV. When you consider the big picture (that's almost a pun here), only a few firefighters act like drunken goofs. Most of them are hardworking, courageous men and women who constantly expose themselves to danger in order to help others. For that, they get paid very little.
