Who Cares about this World Cup crap anyway?

After what seems as all too long, hopefully this fever over this World Cup Soccer crap will be over. My question is, why does anyone care about a bunch of near queers kicking around a checkered ball? How about having a sport, that puts tires on pavement and chases after a checkered flag? Oh yea its called NASCAR. Or let’s see something on TV about an Airshow somewhere. Of course if we need to go that far,(and we do) how about giving viewers something to watch that’s wholesome? Like say a guy in a rig with a chimpanzee , oh yes that’s B.J. & The Bear, the chimp was named after Bear Bryant , bet ya’ll didn’t know that did ya’ll? Oh how about a TV series of say a mach plus speed helicopter? Yes Airwolf. Maybe renew the series with a movie and maybe new actors, but the same concept(Confederate Steele Media is working on it), and I have an idea for METV, if they really wanted to attract viewers with a TV series that has a bigger fan base of solid fans beyond that of even all Star Trek, they’d start work on buying the rights to and airing the Dukes-of-Hazzard. I know of a few that would back such a purchase. Thing is Viacom is just sitting on the series on their network CMT, but not running it. So why not snag it from Viacom’s hands and bring it back. I can see at least 28, million fans around the world sitting by their TV’s.

As far as this World Cup thing, I have seen it on Yahoo, Google, on the news, just about everywhere. Some things ya’ll don’t mind being saturated with, the World Cup ain’t one of them, to me and there’s many who feel this way, its just too much, besides if it doesn’t have wings, tires and burns fuel, nobody cares.

See ya’ll in the AM, this old Wolf is headed for Bed.

It’s better to be blind than to be seen as an idiot

So was watching KSL News, on came an ad for an air show in St. George Utah, called Thunder Over Utah. Granted nothing like ours which hits next year, but I am interested.

So I go to the website of Thunder-over-Utah , so the site opens, but all you get is an email extender, but you can’t read the damn site. Basically the site is F*****ed up. Nothing new, but it makes whoever is throwing the event an injustice. What the whoever is in charge there, should have the sites creator, recreate.

One of the main things that is and has slowed progression of the AyreWolvez site as well as that of both the Knytes-of-Anarchy as well as HazzardAyre Radio’s has been, making sure that our site works and works flawlessly as much as Marine Aviation Aviator precision as possible. A no goof, absolute screw the pooch proof site.

In todays clicky computer Internet society, if your site is one that is messed up or messes up a lot, is grounds for someone to surf elsewhere. It also makes the firm, group, organization look absolutely stupid and incompetent. Its like getting ready to have super pig sex with a super hot babe and then not being able to get a stiffy.

HazzardAyre rolls in on the 5th starting at 04:00 hours.

Keep it stiff and wings level

The Little Fish are trying to Survive The Bigger Fish want more of the pie

The broadcasting business is changing faster than getting manure thrown at you at a Little Britches Rodeo.

Both forms of broadcast are looking for revenue streams. While trying to meet current obligations and looking for new territory.

TV is trying to fend off much of the cable/satellite bunch, radio, is fending off the music artists from taking a bite out of the cash stash every time radio plays a record , or song. Artists don’t realize if it wasn’t for radio playing their music they wouldn’t be star artists, just somebody singing in a honky tonk somewhere. If it wasn’t for TV , TV stars wouldn’t be TV stars as whatever TV show they were on, would never see daylight. Content providers in cable/satellite, are looking for viewer/subscriber numbers, networks supplying the content on cable/satellite are looking to raise the fees to cable/satellite services.

It’s both the economy and those wishing to stay alive, in a very poor economy, provided to you without your permission or vote by both the Republicans and Democrats. Both are lying, cheating crooks. The southern culture has a name for such, called carpetbaggers. There are other names from revenuers to names to indecent to say here.

With that, one has to ask, if there is the need to feed so bad, why is it that when there’s a medium sized fish circling a boat why someone with a hook in the water wont reel it in? Example, an outfit here in Ogden, I contacted when Eli jumped ship, to rescue our streaming radio station, I called two firms, one in Orem, and Ogden Web . The tech guy in Orem got us back up, but it took me calling Livestream to straighten it out. Oh yes, I called Ogden Web, but while they returned phone calls, how hard is it for them to get in their Mini Cooper, drive up here to the Roadhouse and have a chat? Help us develop the site and merge it eventually into a site of its own? Now sure I could go to them, but I want them to show us, on our equipment in our environment how to make things better, adding in software and all on our gear, and in that way, I know what to do at 3:00 AM on a Saturday if something goes goofy. Sure I can watch em at their place, but at their place its there stuff, not ours. Get where I’m going there.

If they want our money, they can come to us.

Now there are those saying , “why can’t the models for visual from TMG do that?” Simple. TMG is female models, going to a private home office, that’s changing after August 1st more on that in a few here. But TMG is not going to send hot models to the RoadHouse. On the other hand, Ogden Web, is guys and guys, doing technical work.

Okay, through a bunch of soul searching, found a place which is exactly where the webstream radio gig was conceived in the first place. For just under $300.00 a month we get the studio/office, we get all utilities paid, but the real clincher? A tech firm that builds, hosts and can maintain the site just above us in the same building. Having TMG send their people to us there will be better and safer, since the new location will be a real business office complex.

Instead of constantly sucking wind like a trout, we can at least get our heads back in the game and begin to regenerate money.

All of which in a few months or just after Christmas/New Years, I can get a place back in the Mini Cassia area of Idaho, come down three times in the week, do the radio work, and yet slowly rebuild AyreWolf Aviation/Cooter’s A1 Toewing near where it was born in the first place.

If you’re a little fish trying to fend off bigger fish, you have to be faster, and quicker, than the bigger fish. More over smarter than the bigger fish.

Look David fought and won over Goliath, so too can HazzardAyre fight and win, over Pandora and IHeart Radio.

This year streaming radio, next year XM/Sirius , more in my next entry.

Closing out, its not that I wouldn’t still talk to and infact have invited Ogden Web Design to the table, again, but waiting is not one of my virtues. I too like many are, in the lush of immediate conquest and lustful of instant gratification.

More on that too in my next entry.

For the love of Ayre

As many of you know, Hill Air Force Base threw open its gates this past weekend to host another Air Force based airshow.

While my health did not allow me to go, from those of the Wolf-Pack that went told me I didn’t miss much if anything at all.

While it was a good crowd and loud, the exhibits of military warbirds of yesteryear was near none existent. Many displays were static, and the few new aged warbirds, had ladders, locked and covered canopies and no real access to anything.

Maj. Mason told me that it cost near $8.00 just for a soda , small soda at that.

Snow cones and the like were selling at $5.00 . Forget about eating.

The interesting thing will be to see the real admission numbers. I’ll bet it wasn’t what the USAF had expected.

On the flip wyng, The Wolf-Pack has on its bulletin board an AyreShow of epic proportions. With REAL vintage warbirds, helicopters and some serious air aerobatics not to mention a few air races. Of course there will be educational booths and four warbird new aged simulators to give attendees of all ages a taste of what it really is like to fly combat as well as 9 G take off’s, stalls and more.

Two concerts in the Bandstands, and of course food from Southern fried, to country pride grub. Even an original powdered egg, and Vienna Sausage breakfast, on day two.

Of Course day three will have in the evening the 2016 SheWolves Pin Up girl contest, where audience cheers and voting will determine the first 12 of the 24 gals for the 2016 AyreWolvez Calendar. If you haven’t pre ordered your tickets yet, I’d do so. Its free of course, but you’ll need the ticket to get in.

The new website that will run separate from the Knytes’ will have the 411 on the ayreWolvez AyreShow 2015.

On the subject of the new site, there is talk of re-establishing AyreWolf Radio under AyreWolfFM, we’ll let you know, but it could be a great side.

Milk and Beer don’t mix

It’s a pretty much a given that milk and beer, especially cheap beer do not mix well.

Yesterday eve, was doing some scripting here and neighbor Dave comes over. So I meander over yonder and drank a Coors Light. First I’m not a Coors guy in any way, give me ye ole Budweiser and time, but considering I had just had a pie and big glass of milk, was a disaster looking for a happening.

About mid eve came my ex roomy (sooner the better) and so I had another brew to be sociable. Except between the lawn chair that has seen better days, and some more conversation with bile in my esophagus I trotted home here, and unloaded first from behind, then from the front. After hurling I cleaned up, went back over. Soon the carport party was over, but this is not the end of it.

I was in partial REM sleep, when I felt that wrenching feeling in my throat at about 04:30 hours.

So went in, hurled again.

Normally I have a gut that will take anything, since I take meds for that, but Friday wanted to go refill that particular med. Except the idiots at Weber Health Services hadn’t called Wal-Mart to authorize a refill. Had all the rest except Lithium, which partially explains Friday mornings outburst, I have to wait until the 31st of July to get that reauthorized. Really friends? I can get my Metformin, okay, and my thyroid meds okay, but the other two, getting anything at Weber Health Services is like putting sox on a rooster.

So early this morning while sipping some flat ginger ale I looked up malpractice attorneys. Found one not too far from me with a live call taker. Told her what was up, she said she’ll get the word to some attorney and I plan to sue.

Now its not, for looking for a big pay off, since any attorney is going to take at least 30 to 40% off any monetary award. But if taking Weber Human Services to court wakes someone up at Weber Human Services as well as giving them a kick in their complacency so be it.

On another legal situation partly connected.

As you know I was a patient at Provo Canyon School, more like captive there, during the late mid 1970’s.

In 2008 I got a letter at first from some gal in Oregon working with a organization advocacy group called HEAL, that was looking forward to suing PCS. This Angela gave me a phone number to some gal in San Francisco or thereabouts, that turned into a gal looking for a new home, with privileges. But I then got the number to and call from some attorney here in Utah working with this Angela. Said he was going to send some documents and all, I never got. So it went. Kept in contact, but never heard from em again.

So mid April got a email from HEAL, on would I be willing to do a sit down interview for some TV documentary on PCS. Sure. So I sat all day waiting for this guy that I thought was from NBC. Turns out it was some intern level, college kid doing a project. Still they came, this guys assistant looked hot, in more ways than others, and we set here for two and a half hours. They did this thing , and gone they were.

How does my upset tummy last night into early morning get together. I believe and I’m not counting it out that the injuries, from being kicked in the stomach, multiple times, being held down and having brussle sprouts stuffed down my throat, getting hit in the back side of my knees multiple times and still having to stand up for 300 hours, started at 260, but every time I’d fall down from strain here came the ball bat. The ultimate, was just slightly after I had transferred from Orientation to Phase 1, I was on the couch first watching American Bandstand and then Gilligans Island. I made some remark as to how hot Dawn Wells(Mary Ann ) looked, and got peened in the head with a ball peen hammer. Just above my ear. Even though they knew at PCS I had suffered a head injury through a car accident there, and just as some bone began to grow back in just over my right ear, PCS had to smack me with a hammer there. Meaning no bone only skin there. Which nearly prevented me from going into the USMC, but some quick talking by my dad to DoD and I went anyway.

Bottom line this attorney from HEAL was supposed to get back to me and as of yet, it’s a month and yet no response.

Thing is many of my health problems are a result of injury that I took there at PCS, again not looking for a big money thing, just looking for justice. But as my Cousin Claude said once , “ Wish in one hand, want in the other, see which one fills faster”

The only way I’d ever get justice from PCS would be for me to personally hire my own attorney and hit em up their head, but I haven’t got all that paper work, and what is , is in one of four refrigerator sized file cabinets at Cousin Bud’s now deceased that is at second cousin Shars.

So remember fellow aviators and road rescue technicians, milk and beer, don’t mix.

Out of Anarchy comes order-AyreWolf

It’s a Love, not just a job

To be fair I can understand some of the reasons why, I seldom if I ever see a check even a collective check in my mail box or the clubs, wishing to contribute to the Move It Over for Tow Trucks Campaign. However outside of the very close knit band of us in the Toew Bros Club, its like much of the towing industry anymore. Used to be, that if one tow company had a rig go down, or had a problem, the whole industry once we all knew would rally around to see how we could help, even rent or lease a truck so at least the needing tow person could eat. That’s not quite the way it is anymore, and one of the reasons, the towing associations don’t work anymore, nor are as honored as they were once.

There are a few that are still dedicated as a whole to the industry, more over this profession we are all in. Towing, or Toewing as I spell it, is a love, an affection, addiction. Its not just another job. The very reason I stepped back into radio in 1978, was even though I heard many over the road trucker radio shows,NOBODY was doing anything radio or TV on Towing, or for us in this profession. Whether it’s the Move it Over project, or re teaching younger drivers how to use a sling. Yes there are tow jockeys that have no idea how to go old skool.  As for me, long before I owned LexiBelle> I had to learn the hard way , more over I was lucky, I trained under some of the best in our area, from Steve Crossley of Steve’s Towing of Ogden Utah, to John Nausbaum of Johnny’s Towing Twin Falls Idaho, to Tommy N Thompson of TNT Boise. To Bob at B&W Wrecker Service of Boise. Lets face it, unless you’re a kin to someone running a tow company , getting your foot in the door takes a lot of bribing and ass kissing. Putting a 16 year old greenhorn in a truck, (back then it was legal as long as you stayed local) and say go tow, requires earning trust, and a lot of it. But I was damn determined to own my own company. And while the first truck I chose was one of Steve’s rather than LexiBelle, once I saw LexiBelle for the first time, it was at first feel. I knew then that, that truck and I would be together for eternity. So I read every towing publication out there. From American Towman to Tow Times, to PhooteNotes. I devoured every word. I took up the cause to quit calling tow trucks Wreckers, just because a industry publication editor told me to. I even started although little credit has even been gave outside of the organization, but I started the first useful towing association in both Idaho and Northern Utah that wasn’t so stuck up looking at how many trucks you had , how many calls you got, we joined together and even at the modest number of members, the Toew Bro’s Club, has 5000 nationwide.

When we thought since no one else was on the air either TV or radio we built our own station licensed and all, all of a sudden our industry got noticed.

There is even talk about us forming the first XM/Sirius Satellite network for the toewing industry.

Just once though, it would be nice to be spoke of, it would be nice to be seen with a message from someone else on their Proud to Be A towing Professional Facebook page.

With all too many of getting killed, out on the open road, hooking up and all, just once I’d like to see a check for $50.00 or $100.00 not to me or for me, but to the Toew Bro’s, so we could get a PSA TV Ad produced. We’re doing it anyway, but it would be nice to see some of the rest of the industry help. The life our ad saves might be yours or mine.

I love this profession, I love what I do, and I’ll always keep fighting for the industry I’m part of. Because like many, I’m proud to be a Towing Professional, even if I only have 3 trucks.

Another TV Show that shouldn’t haver aired

Let’s face it, Reality TV is more than likely is here to stay.

Face it Reality TV, is easy and cheap to produce, no scripts, moderate monetary outlay, and a

modest payout, either in an entry job or a modest scholarship at some firm somewhere.

Last week I saw a show on TruTV just b4 South Beach Tow that while interesting and entertaining does little to represent the industry. I’d much rather see a show like WRECKED like what was on the old SpeedTV network.

A subject for a different time. I had thought by now TV would have strained the milk a bit more and gotten away from trying to do more for less. Thing is now days few things coming out of Hollywood or for that matter NYC is dull and not even worth watching more than a few times if more than once.

When it comes to TV shows of or directed towards gearheads like you and I they fall far short.

I remember the first shows that TNN started in about 1992/93 somewhere that evolved into PowerBlock then becoming PowerNation. The shows that made that up were good, really informative. Manufacturers had more space financially to provide product in return for being mentioned on those shows.

As the trend went away from street muscle cars, to muscle trucks, RTM Productions was there with Truckin USA. A spin off of NHRA TODAY amongst a couple of others. Ed Bruce did a Great job with that. If they’d have stayed with the basic concept the show would have made it. But then they started doing bit and segments that made it go sour. The idea was nearly dropped until the found Stacey David and just called the show Trucks. Stacey did a helluva job, building some sweet eyecandy. Problem is much of those builds were well beyond the casual enthusiast or person in a driveway with usual tools. Few people have shops, much less floor lifts. Of course the 4X4 community wanted to do something so came out 4X4 Xtreme. The show fell on its butt. The only thing holding that up was a hot honey that could turn a wrench. She wanted more money, so the punk haired kid became the host. As usual the show lost luster.

As a backdrop they ran through a bunch of intro poster girls to intro the show and fill gaps between advertising and the half hour how to shows. However over time, a few lawsuits over not completely disclosing all that would be needed to do such builds, looking for the danger areas and removing smog equipment, made RTM put disclosures at the end of the shows.

But alas so it went.

Then came SpeedVision, then to be retitled SpeedTV. Finally a full time TV channel for gearheads. There was at the very liftoff of the big custom bike craze, American Thunder with female host Michele Smith, who knew her subject well. What made that go sour is it had a co-anchor/host from Hot Rod TV on it that didn’t transfer well.

Now we have a show that TNT just had to rerun before Saturday’s NASCAR Race called MotorCity Master. This should have been killed by now. It just sucks. There is no reality to this REALITY show.

Gearhead aimed TV has had some of the common elements. First its always hosted by a hot babe, good. Next the shows are always now at least more reality TV or drama soap TV than anything entertaining. Its difficult of course. Like I said with a ailing economy and a hurting Joe Lunchbucket not being able to afford to build anything much these days. Manufacturers, dealers and retailers are not rushing to the front of the bar to pour the parts into these shows like they used to .

I’d be lieing if I did not say that there’s not something in the works here at Confederate Steele Media, but I can’t say, but I can tell you, not only will the show be entertaining, but will have plenty of GearHeaded eyecandy that WILL KNOW something.

Finally on this entry on TruTV on both TruTV and TNT, they decided to put the poster girl, Brooke Burns>Who you know , knows little in the way of what gets greasy and what makes a ride run.

Ours wont be that way, with the help of TMG in Salt Lake City, and our crew here in the Knytes-of-Anarchy, running Confederate Steele Media, our new super rig TV show, become beyond anything previous will amaze, inform and yes even entertain you.

Stay tuned.

NASCAR is on, more on that l8r.
