I remember I was numb for 4 days. As a firefighter, I was having coffee in the kitchen of Las Vegas FS3, getting ready to go home for my "4 day" (off). I did pretty much nothing but watch TV for four days and be depressed.
On the fourth day, I needed to get out of the house. I felt a little guilty to be going out for a few beers and dinner, but that's what my wife and I did. We were sitting in a bar when Bonds hit #70. Even though a lot of jounalists will tell you no one likes Barry Bonds, the whole bar applauded. I think the applause was not for Bonds but for the achievement. I'll also tell you that George W. Bush "used" his photo ops with the FDNY firefighters.....he had a terrible record on firefighter health and safety and was no friend to us.
