  20. “One thing that Ballantyne did, which sets him apart from contemporary children’s authors, was carry out detailed research for his novels […] He worked in a Cornish tin mine (Deep Down: a Tale of the Cornish Mines), went to the bottom of the Thames in a diving suit (Under the Waves), and for Fighting the Flames worked in a London fire station.”

    "Take the cuffs off. Take the fucking cuffs off right now. Come on, you can't do that. This guy's under stress right now. We need to take vitals!"

    Stopped by 🚒 Malden Fire, Local 902, to grab one of their T‑shirts for Autism Acceptance Month. They’ll be available all month, and every dollar raised goes directly to a local charitable organization.

    🗣️Appreciate Lieutenant Power for the assist, and grateful for our firefighters and all first responders who show up for Malden — and communities everywhere — every day.
