How much luxury does one really need to be truly happy? For that matter does one need a title and an ivory tower office to be thought of as successful? A line from the movie “ Bruce AllMighty” said it best, when so called God told Bruce, “ There are people who come home smelling like a stockyard that are the most content. A quik scene from an event I experienced twice once last week and yet today. Last week began the search as many of ya’ll know for a place to crash in Burley or at least that area. The two places within my price range were what my DAV-PSR said were dives and/or dumps. Thing is; one was complete with cable, wifi, and power bill included, one is a downstairs place that needs work , but could be made habitable. Granted they were not wall to wall carpeted palaces , but hey do I really need that? Being frugal is key to not only surviving , but thriving in this day and age, plus hey when Kahless returns to claim his children, it aint going to matter what you got, what special threads cover your body, or what fancy place you live in , but what’s in your heart that’ll matter. So that’s that , on that.
Then today , I went into this place to renew my insurance on LexiBelle. The stuck up’s nearly made me wanna turn around and walk out, but considering the up-coming move need to have LexiBelle legal enough for the trip. So there I was, and because I stood there in my overalls in oil, the clerk looked at me in disgust. Now , I may look like I ain’t got a pot to piss in or a window to throw it out of, but considering that I in concert with other family members sit on the throne of a multi million dollar automotive and ayrecraft restoration company, in fact one company that is the envy of many, and have sideswiped the 2k era depression. So when I’m made to look like I am being ignored I leave and slam the door, and quite a few regret that ignorance.
Okay that said, a new era is dawning here at HazzardAyre Inc, and as such we are looking at blowing some serious smoke signals out to get folks not in the know, to know , not only of the radio gig, but this newspaper as well. Not only that , but drifting past that into the work that the shop, soon to reopen in Burley Idaho as well as the one near Idaho Falls, Idaho does. As usual, and I wish in some ways we didn’t do this, but hey, guys are guys, gals are gals and gals are why guys build hot rods, trick trucks, hot bikes, and restored warbirds. So two things are going together, a hot female body or two to photograph with LexiBelle, LiL Lexi, and the Lady, as well as the General Jackson. Added to that a fully unplugged promotion project is under way. The visual will be spectacular and the ads network quality. We are eyeing Midnight Productions out of Twin Falls, Idaho for 80% of the video work, like wize we are talking to, two other production companies in SLC Utah and one I chatted with at this years NAB(National Association Of Broadcasters) convention in Lost Wages Nevada a few weeks ago.
Here is an example though of the urgency, and why its not smart to rest on your laurels.
A local outdoor-hunting sportsman store reopened today here in Buhl. A competitor radio station came over to do a remote. Now I’ll put dollars to donuts that the deal cost somewhere in the area of $1,500.00 or pretty close. Yet HazzardAyre/KDXB could have done the same damn thing for half of that. Why didn’t they give us a holler? Simple; they knew little if anything about us. Not that we haven’t tried to get the other local video and newsprint outfits around here including the Buhl Herald and such to do a diddy on us. But green greases the wheels of such, so we are contracting with two area TV stations and two national TV networks to give us the media noise we need. By the way, the way we have been treated by both the Buhl Herald as well as the Slime News in Twinky Flatts, is why the printed version of HazzardAyre News was put back into circulation. So why keep anything in Buhl? Simple, an FCC license can’t just be moved like a auto parts store. Once a station or entity is granted an FCC license as well as a Construction Permit(CP) , that’s where it needs to be. But what the heck , Buhl is 70 miles from Burley, and I can commute. But for us to get in the minds of the populas , we need an external way to blow thy horn, and TV is it.
Speaking of TV, we are talking to a production firm in Lost Angeles that does American Chopper and Desert Kings, to doing a series on building vintage military warbirds.
The bottom line? Those who ignored us over the last year and a half will wish they hadn’t.
Now as I park the truck, don’t ya’ll wish that for once, when you do a search, even a Google search, that the web sites they point you to, really worked? By the highway , speaking of websites HazzardAyre’s will be out just after fathers day in June.
More on that Sunday.
Until L8R
