Not SpeedConnects biggest fan any more

I have become not the biggest fan of the Internet Services Provider SpeedConnect. Oh when I got it , it worked near seamless. Speed, fidelity, good throughput. But something must have happened in mid July. Their system went belly up or was injured somehow. For me I bet they are expecting a payment, however for the $10,000.00 I have lost in revenue due to their system not working, I'm in not much of a big hurry. That and with Cable-One going in on Tuesday, What's the big rush.
Not saying Cable-One is a big gig either but it works much better, for about the same money, but I'll get 70 mps in the process from Cable-One that SpeedConnect can't deliver.
Any way sitting here waiting for some new hire for the bar, but she ain't showed. Somehow don't think she's going to. More on that in a few laps, that is if Speed Connect will work long enough to post it.

So you think its bed time do you?

So you think its bed time do you?

So you think its time to shed this mortal coil for one day, going to where few have gone before taking the Imperial Empire by storm in the StarShip USS EagleWolf. Problem is, you have phlegm in your throat that keeps shutting off your air way. So you get up gargle then think its again time for lights out. But no, your alarm says time to get up and check your blood sugar, so you do, and find its hitting the mark at 203 or so. So you take some meds, and if there comes no toew calls, or SAR call outs, you finally get some rest. Well sort of.

Now if you’re an all nighter like I am, on air on subscription only now HazzardAyre Radio, or writing for the club like I do all night, since there are few if any phone calls, you hit the rack at 06:00 hours, try to stay asleep until noon Mountain Standard time that is off the boards for every other person or someone selling you something . Thing is, the noise outside of those going to the job, the light sneaking in the attempted all dark room you have manufactured to try to gain some shut eye in. And you get why I love snoozing, and taking what short naps I can and why I get so damn ornery when I don’t catch a few hours of shut eye.

It wasn’t always this way. When I was a younger Wolf pup, I’d go for 72 hours straight researching , building rods and customs, getting period correct threads for models that were easier to recruit before so many in our area got paranoid of their own shadow, or again doing all night OTR trucker radio gigs. Of course things changed when I got LexiBelle>Back then 80% of your real hard toew runs hit after midnight to about 04:00 hours. Once the cops went in to write reports the only calls you’d get were real wrecks and even then those came in before dawn. So it was up all night watching video tape VHS movies until 06:00 then hit the rack.

The body over time gets into that rhythm , problem is those outside of the industry don’t understand that, and so think your just lazy.

With that said at 02:00 hours I’m making a bee line to my bed.

See ya’ll in the afternoon.

Taking one for the club

So I was asleep, dreaming of doing a duet with Barbra Mandrell at the Grand Ole Opry, and phone rings. Its Ricky, thinking it’s a toew run I answer , seems as though his midnight fox hunt did not turn up any game, so a stand by is in view, but he needs a diversion of the mother. So I go over, take the gal to coffee, and while an okay personality, really fugdugly. Granted I most likely didn’t look like MR GQ either, but this is beyond even bad. But I went over, and flagged for Rick. So I took one for the club at least a member, so now a favor is owed, a rather good favor that I WILL collect on.

So I get home, and as I was chowing down on a pizza, cruised on the clubs email, and saw in the inbox a return from someone on the bar person we’;re interviewing first. The first thing they asked was where is this bar? Thing is we are still negotiating on the price. Second we have two other locations in mind not too far away from the club’s shop, on Shoshone. Or what will be the clubs shop, on Shoshone. So I simply said if you read the blogs and tune in to the radio station they’d know where the bar is going to be. Okay, to tune into the radio show is by subscription only. the Subscription fee is to upkeep the radio network. The blog (this one) is open for all to read, but if they’d been reading, they’d know we aren’t even there yet. Reason for posting the ad? Simple to see if there is even someone with the entire package to manage that bar. Let’s face it, what I know about running a bar is very slim. I know how to drink, book talent and what I and the club wants there, but knowing how to hire, fire, cocktail wait persons, and all the rest , is like asking me to hem a set of pants, I flat don’t know how. So before the club ponies up money for something like that we want to know is there people that can do the job. Gal says she’s coming by Monday, really we’ll see. Gal’s name has the same last name as one James that wanted in as a prospect for the club. Trouble is he’s broke, always broke, and as of yet never has paid one penny of prospect dues money of $75.00 a month.

That’s how my Sunday went.

See ya’ll on the radio overnight.

Always up against the religious coalition

So got an invite to join up with this Tragic Valley Buy,sell, Trade page on Facebook. Just for an attempt put up our radio anchor job on there. The ad never was allowed to stay on there imagine that.

Now there at this two ways to look at this, that the religious coalition is against us in every way possible and maybe to not even put the full blooded Over the air station up, just keep it going for those that will appreciate it online through strictly an online radio station. Or the other is to put the station over the air waves as planned, and say to hell with the religious super bigoted minds and attitudes here.

Try as they might we get fought every way possible. There is of course the Churchy folks who pray on Sunday, but sin the rest of the week. One of the pieces I got from the sermon last Sunday from the River was all too many go there, sing, and be Holier than thou at Church but as soon as they leave are bad mouthing everyone, or Jeckle Hyde thing. I fondly remember that in Hazzard, years ago, at the LDS ward there. Here was these young men nearing missionary age and all, callings in the ward, yet the same kids we were arresting for everything from narcotics consumption to narcotics trafficking and distribution, to driving impaired the rest of the week. The same kids who loved to trash my cruiser and then say it wasn’t them. It was shortly after I trapped one, one Sunday and took him down that it was mutually agreed that I not attend the Hazzard LDS ward anymore. But my they were there for the Toy donation for the ward poor, that I never ever got a thank you for. I’ll never completely forgive that, or them. The club never snubbed me like that but they sure did. Maybe an apology is in order from them to me and the club. Hazzard for those who don’t know is the alternate name for Hagerman, in case ya’ll didn’t know.

Whether its babes for pay to enhance our rides for magazine ads, club promotion or such, or getting even one gal to take it seriously to get involved in the station at twice what they make serving fries and frozen steer parts at McDonalds, there are days, I get to thinking, its us doing all the right things just in the wrong place. But I also remember, the uphill battle in the late 80’s early 90’s here as well. Once we succeeded others wanted in, others joined on. So yes we did well. Still do, which is why I still work long, long hours doing this. That Facebook page called Magic Valley Buy,Sell,Trade might consider that treating me nice might get them free ads on our radio station.

As far as being none religious ? If one thinks that then you don’t know me, the club, nor the south very well, they don’t call the south the Bible belt for nothing.

Any mile much to be done today, I’m in bed. But to that Facebook page, if you don’t want to post my ads, don’t invite me to the damn group.

Has Facebook and Yahoo become boring for you?

As you sit there guzzling down that Expresso, or what really is a very strong cup of 100 mile black sea, I ask you , has Facebook and Yahoo, become extremely boring and even childish to you?
If its not some headline about the Kardashians ( I thought they were a space invader from Cardasia-ST DS9 , look it up dummy) its some odd liner for Miley Cirus. Who I don't like, she's plain hiddeious looking. Facebook wants to make you stay longer, but if they are not bombarding you with ads , saying your friends recommended that( They got sued for that shit, think they'd learn) its posts by erotic dancers or some thing else. Or asking YOU if you want another friend. Even suggesting friends. But wait just a minute. Didn't I get blocked for several weeks because I tried to add too MANY FRIENDS that never wanted to be added. The same ones FACEBOOK suggested I add. Hmm. 
I have been saying for months, even a year a more entertaining, more mature version of Facebook ought to be invented. Not just about things Hazzard County or Knytes (Our club) but things us older folks over the age of 50 can get into and appreciate. There's this one called The Southern Life, great page. But dig this, its the same old stuff day after day, and even the host has trouble finding content. Getting back on course here, could there be a more mature Facebook style thing invented? If not why not? If so why ain't nobody else done it? Sure its costly and even Facebook creator Mark Zuckerburg did his grand invention when the economy was more welcoming. But still , there is so much money to be made in this nation if you just come up with a trend, even jumping in with the other big dogs, just with a new bone, that its not funny. Like that gal on Cable-One's commercials says its just Common Sense. To this end the club is busy with two consultants, working out details to ride on the shirt tails of both HazzardAyre the website and WyldAyre the website that will hold hands, but bringing along a site, yet to be named for us older, kountry as well as urban folks over the age of 50 that will rise above both Yahoo, and Facebook. But I feel bad for Yahoo. I figured out their problem. yahoo, is ran by a female. And there is no room for women to be running these companies. While they may have an ounce of acumen to do so, they do not have the teeth of thye Wolf to bite into something and tear into it.
As I close, Want to ask one question, if there was a over 50 Yahoo, or Facebook, that was free, that had more adult based content. Would you subscribe to it?

If your going to do something Idaho is not your best choice

As I get ready to turn in to snag some sleep after a great radio overnyte HazzardAyre show, I am becoming increasingly aware that if your planning on doing something big, Idaho is most likely not the place to stage an event.

I once asked the question to many a promoter why not Idaho? The response is always that Idaho is to backwards, the infrastructure is not in Idaho, and basicly too damn stuck up.

While the plans are still on the boards for Hazzard Nationals/DukeFest West, in Filer at the Twin Falls County Fairgrounds , can you imagine the headache its going to be just to get 150 southern belle style gals to host the 150 vendors on just vendors row alone? That’s not to mention the promotion of the event prior to, and during the event. Escorting musical performers from Cooter’s Garage Band, to Selena Gomez . That’s just the short list. The event is set for July-August 2015, but I’ll bet my next oil change, that it’ll get about July 2014, and the higher up’s of the club in California are going to say too slow a progress, and yank the event and stage it either in Salt Lake City, or at least Ogden.

Boise would be too small and as advanced as they are there, there’s only two venues even close to being the right size to host such a gig, the Idaho Center just on the heels of Nampa, or the Western Idaho State Fairgrounds. Even with that getting filly’s for hosts, escorts(no not that kind of escort, get your mind out of the toilet) there still isn’t the kind of talent agency there for such a gig. Even Utah as grand as it is, barely can handle it. Thing is Utah has grasped the art, of just that, the arts, entertainment, film and TV series production(Touched By An Angel) as well as tourism, and event production. There are support resources there that just will not be in Idaho. As far as Idaho, is concerned its production agriculture, support for farming, and little else if anything else. Not that farming is bad we all need to eat, Agriculture keeps AyreWolf Aviation in business, but that’s all there is here. Forget about high tech, or industrial in Idaho, nope its farm and support of farm.

The Warbird and rat rod truck calendar video project was a test of sorts to see if even that could be done. Outside of a limited few, the search for talent, the attitude and all has been one of very serious disappointment. To me and the club. Maybe if we’re lucky Paige and all can come up with some more talent applicants, but right now I’m scratching my head. But like most things once we open the door, maybe more will walk through.

What I’m talking about next entry.

Until Then its lights out

Greetings from a far and away place called Hazzard.

Before I get onto my rift here, have some unfinished clean up damage control to do here.

In one of my last entries, I mentioned that one of our main candidates for our Pin up Calendar crew , namely Paige was a bit lackluster in her dedication and enthusiasm over being a model for the club. The opposite is true, she proved she was willing and able, by just driving down here for a first time meet and greet. However here is where it gets sticky. Thing is out of all the candidates for this pin up girl gig, there will be one chosen to be both Miss Hazzard County and one for Miss AyreWolf for the up coming year. Both will get a modeling talent contract worth over $300,000.00 . Someone that’s willing to put much on hold to serve in our club, and be on call around the clock. While I love Paige, I don’t think she has that will yet. She has Guard, School, and another job, that comes before us. So the focus girl for us is not her. Then there is Jessica, Same situation. So we are still trying to find those two gals, and that’s causing anxiety for me as well as both clubs. Since mother nature and Father time is not going to hold the weather much longer for both the calendar and shooting the commercials. Too bad there aren’t gals here that can just throw down, and help to recruit someone that’s able and willing, to be here on a on call basis. That would help. So to Paige your hot we welcome you hope your in for the long haul . Thing is we need more than just you and Jessica, and Mike ain’t been forth coming. Before I recommend the club cough up $50,k to him or anybody much has to be proved. Did anybody say Salt Lake City, and an agency.

It’s like Mark a great photographer whose work has been in EasyRiders, Rat Rod, AirFrame and other publications, is waiting by the phone and his bird is ready to be here overnight weather permitting. It’s up to these maybe girls and even ones that we know are on board  to step up, or step out. This is why there needs to be a agency at least here with a one call that’s all for model and or on TV air talent. That’s something we as a club are working to establish, but it takes a woman, or a guy who is hitched to pull that off. Not an MC(Motorcycle Club) or a winged warrior group. Like us.

Okay, got the papers for the new shop. Am making em out in the name of the club, rather than me. Reason? Simple with everything that has happened over the last 6 years, and here in go no where Idaho, my mind is pretty much made up that in 2015 this old Wolf is going to be building my aviation and then toewing empire in Utah. NOT IDAHO, I’m done with here and the stress of trying to do the most with less. More over do the impossible without the resources. Oh its not the resource of money we got that, it’s the dang resource of humans that have their chicken shit heads so far up their butts that many can taste the back of their teeth. Twice.

Between then and now I’m doing my duty to the club, the radio station, the shop, the bar club house, then TV station, hire managers for all of that, then this old Wolf is outta here.

But at least I do have one thing going for me here. When the troubles of this city and area piss me off to the point the blood vessels on my head and all begin popping, I can get in LiL Wolf, and drive 35 miles to Hazzard, go in amongst nothing but ducks, coots, fish, and near silence. Melt into nature, put on my fatter inner tube, get my fishing pole, and drift out and just bob along with the current, down a few brewskies and forget about this other stuff including the club although very aware that just 5 miles from MY PONDS there is where the club, unfolded and was founded. But as it was earlier this evening, I went down, let my hair unfold, and just take in nature and marvel at the little butterfly’s the screech of an eagle overhead, the croaking of frogs, and just unwind.

That’s what makes living here bearable. If it were not for that release I’d have lost it months ago.

Any mile, going to sip my coke, read my Bible and head to bed.

All the good numbers to you, 77’s and 33rd’s to ya’ll
