Fire in a Chemical Plant

A chemical plant exploded into flames. An alarm
went out to fire departments for miles around.

After several hours of fighting the fire, the
president of the chemical company approached the
fire chief and said, "I will give $100,000 to
the engine company that can rescue our secret
formulas from the vault in the center of the plant."

After a couple of hours of fire fighting, the
chief was ready to admit defeat. The formulas
could not be rescued.

Suddenly, another fire truck came into view,
sirens screaming. It was a little volunteer
company comprised of firefighters over the
age of 65. The little fire truck raced through
the chemical plant and drove straight into the
middle of the inferno. The old timers began
fighting the fire with an effort never before
witnessed.

In time, they extinguished the fire and saved the
secret formulas.

After giving the little group their reward money,
the company president asked the group what they
would do with the cash.

The fire truck driver looked him in the eye and
said, "First thing we're going to do is fix the
brakes on that truck!"
