Default "Rolling the Equipment"

Roy,

Because they would look like idiots if anything bad happened and they
hadn't rolled the equipment.


Exactly. I landed with a failed alternator once and they rolled it just
to make sure I wasn't going to burst into flames or something. One of
the firemen then directed us into our parking spot...

My wife would like that... she likes firefighters. I just don't let
her take any home with her...
