July 19, 2003 -- She lives in an East Village apartment, but the Bravest at Engine Co. 33-Ladder Co. 9 are sure Beth Landau is an angel. "She's our little gift from God," said firefighter Don Casey of Landau, who lives three blocks from the Great Jones Street firehouse and last year raised funds to treat 18 firefighters to a post-9/11 Memorial Day weekend in her native Memphis.

Re #1

There was a poster, MEMPHIS BELLE, in this forum. Is she the same one? If she is, why is she not a member any more?

Nope...I met the original Memphis Belle at the March for Justice in DC on October 31, 1998; this is definitely not her. She was a lovely woman, and I do not know why she's gone.

Thank you very much!
Thank you very much!
That's the nicest thing that anyone's ever done for me.
It isn't every day
good fortune comes me way!
I never thought the future would be fun for me!
And if I had a bugle
I would blow it to add a sort
o' how's your father's touch.
But since I left me bugle at home
I simply have to say
Thank you very, very, very much!
Thank you very, very, very much!

Thank you for your donation!

Memphis Belle poster from the FR five years ago hasn't posted in a couple of years. She lives in Nashville the last I heard.

The Firefighters from NY are lucky they didn't get robbed while in Memphis, Tn, during their stay. See related stories posted the last couple of days concerning Memphis, Tn, crime.

Ping Ditto....

She moved to Murfreesboro I think, to Middle Tennessee State where she was on the faculty.

Ah, my old Alma Mater. MTSU has turned into a PC, liberal sh*thole nowadays.
