There is so much more in life than money

The fact that so many any more do anything just for the money, or just for the pay check, is not within the ideals of the Knytes-of-Anarchy.

Sure I like getting green in my jeans for what I do, sure I’d like to scarf down steak and taters every night would be keen as well. But that’s not why I serve in the best way possible for and of The Knytes-of-Anarchy.

Why do I do this? Simply stated I was one in fact up in the top 4 of those who one day decided we could do a much better job of serving and helping ourselves and communities than the Boy Scouts, from which many of our members came from. The fact that as the organization was created we based our cb/local trucker club on that of the original Independent Truckers Association. The seed was planted in 1974 at the Ogden Holliday Inn in Ogden Utah, my Dad, a close friend of mine Jon Muir, Correy Hansen, John Weis , and myself sat down and carved out what has became one of the most powerful organizations in Idaho, even though many do not think of us that way.

Since then the club has evolved, and reworked its name several times to more effectively make a difference. The fact our entire organization revolves around that wonderful flag of the south, not meant in hate or racism, but as a symbol of people looking for true freedom and liberty that the Yankee Union has failed to bring about. That we openly call Abraham Lincoln a liar and cheat, and think his assignation came way too late, and ponder at what this Union would be like if Jefferson Davis would have won, is really why we in the Knytes do what we do.

We do our projects albeit unorthodox but we do it because we believe in God above, and that Jesus is our Savior, and that his word, his teachings have been thrown out with the bath water.

Many members of our club got into our organization just to make a fast dollar. Again making money to eat, but taking pride in a great looking rig, or bike and being able to say I built that is part of it. Seeing the face of a child a poor or not to doing well financially family on Christmas or Thanksgiving, have a new toy or that family have a full dinner is why we do what we do.

Sure we pledge allegiance to a different flag and sing a different national anthem , but are we wrong? The so holier than though that’s out there have no compassion for anyone else but themselves. They see only what social status building for themselves can be accomplished by doing charity work, rather than the love of all , that our Father in Heaven commanded us to do for each other. If that’s wrong then God almighty strike me dead. Pour fire and brimstone on the Knytes.

There are those that proclaim in our immediate community of Burley, “but hey you look at near naked women, you lust after the flesh” To whit I say false. Our view is simply, God above made women to be admired and relished. If God makes a great creation, why not look at it and admire his fine work, just as anyone does at a grand sunset or a fantastically created mountain range, or a serene valley, not looking at women in a carnal way as a lamb ready to be taken, and consumed, but as a great creation of God.

I’ll have more on this, this afternoon, but if there are those who join or decide to join the Knytes-of-Anarchy, don’t do it because of your thought of making a paycheck, do it because you believe in our cause and what we stand for.

Life has curves and speed bumps, and in Idaho a lot of Dead Ends

Of all forms of communication and messages, perhaps it is music that drives ones mind to wander and ask, is there nothing more. Like many I search, yet in many ways I do not know what it is that I truly search for.

During one of my music blocks last night on HazzardAyre, I looked up a thing on the internet, about possible housing in or near Boise.

There are places in luxury complexes for less than I’m paying for this spider trap I live in , here in Burley.

Now just because I’d move does that mean greater opportunity and money generation? Some how I am not yet sure.

It has to do I think with the entire spectrum of both the club and me. For going toewing , Boise might be a hard run, although not impossible. Once upon a time I had some real serious earning potential there. Circumstances became such that a move to Pocatello was needed so that uncoupled that , but it was there.

I threw away a serious maybe for a real Dead End. Been living with it ever since.

Would that happen a third time? No one can truly predict that since I do not hold a Wizards Crystal ball, or possess skills of fortune prediction. Nor have I ever heard of lightning striking three times. Twice maybe, but not three.

While Utah holds some family strength, the fact that its just too expensive for me to live there on current income. So Boise is the next big thing.

I found it both satisfying, and disturbing at the same time, that going to the shop this evening that all of OJ’s power tools had been taken home, maybe that chapter of this book is closing. The releasing of a repair job, car yesterday, cost the company money, of a diagnostic fee, but outside of that we did not loose much. No parts were bought, no labor put forth so no whoop.

The soap opera I lived through there over the last few weeks is enough to have been to where any, and I mean ANY other boss would have sent the entire bunch packing. Do the work or take a hike.

Shit, most things I had to do myself, so oh well, don’t go away mad , just go away.

Hey they came to me, I did not , seek them out. And as they say life goes on. But it was a reality check that simply says, Mini Cassia Idaho is just not for me, and its again time to put my shop together with Tommy’ up there and get going, both building hot Harley’ and towing.

I went to Facebook, took out all those involved in the fiasco and kept one, who most likely I’ll unplug later today.

At least Charlie paid me and after all, that’s who along with Ricky, I depend on.

So what about KDXB ? Move the tower and all to American Falls, install a new station in or near Boise, where resources are more plentiful.

All I can say is , this was one helluva ride.

So it looks like its once again all me by myself

Well it looks like good ole AyreWolf here is prowling and running solo again. The crew I thought I had decided to flee the coop, rather than hang in until PAY day. Oh well. But since we lost the ability to pay for another shop, had to turn loose an impound to cover the rent on the other shop.

So what else is new?

For nearly 39 years I have been towing and building some to the most wicked hot rods and bikes in both Idaho and Utah. Few dedicated to our hobby would argue that. More over even fewer would argue that the Hazzard County Knytes wrote the book on what a hot rod club coupled with a Dukes-of-Hazzard fan club should be. We wrote other chapters in the evolving escalation of our favorite pass time, from how to really put on a bash of a hot rod show, to how to get things done. Thing is, much I have done nearly myself. In the shop its all been by myself.

Some people are cut out to be a Knyte, some are not. If one can’t even have patience for a paycheck then maybe they need to work elsewhere.

If one is not dedicated to life as we know it in the club, and will not contribute to the benefit of the club, dollars wise, then maybe they don’t need to be hangarounds or prospects.

But at least another rebuild for what got took off of LexiBelle and rebuild of the company can begin. Not so much to get running again, but to get things in line to blow this chicken shit town and head for where the action gets some traction.

It has to do allot with maturity, and dedication, many just don’t have that.

Not my loss.

Big day today, filing the theft reports on the car later today, then over to Twin to see what I can find as far as living quarters.

out of anarchy comes order-AyreWolf

If it smells like dog shit on your shoes, its probably dog shit on your shoes

I must be the most patient if not the most understanding guy on planet earth or at least in Mini Cassia.

Had a 2007 Caviler I was going to do a replacement on a water pump, but the Mexican who owned it came and got it, without paying a diagnostic fee, let alone shop time. Let the beaner get it fixed for less or better elsewhere. Most shops would charge this guy at minimum $2,500.00 for the job.

Granted old skool water pump R&R is no big deal. And not that much time. But these new little Chevy’ are harder. You have to remove virtually the entire top of the engine to get to it. Plus raise the engine after loosening the motor mount, 6 hours just shop time, at $30.00 an hour, My $40.00 an hour labor, my price just over $500.00 . The time book says more. All we requested was half in advance of customers we do not know. He didn’t, so grand theft auto charges will be filed in the morning.

My people had no business releasing the car before I could resolve the situation, which I couldn’t since I had to go to Salt Lake City running scrap metal Wednesday.

Charlie and Ricky will hit the wall on this, but since its my shop, the entire cost will be taken out of my hide. Such is life in no go Idaho. From now on, if it ain’t a Harley or old skool hot rod, it ain’t going in the shop. Only toewing.

Then there’s my neighbor, been putting me off on payment for fixing his kids pedal bike. Okay fine, with me and the Knytes we don’t get mad we just get even.

The lights of Boise are getting brighter all the time.

Stay Tuned , be back after HazzardAyre Radio.

typical KMVT

Well its now a month since the gurus at KMVT bought up yet another license and reeled in the FoX Network. To bolster of course the ad revenue which I think is what all should do, make as much as you can while ya’ll can, but doing it dishonestly?

So there you are, watching the new so called News cast at 9:00PM, on CH-14, and all your getting word for word is the same script news copy that was on KMVT’s news at 6:00PM, new news? Bullsbreath. There should have been a second news team assembled. Maybe rehire Michelle Darcy, Yea buddy I’d go for that.

What I think is , KMVT bit off more than they can chew and are starting to gag, and this time I hope nobody gives them unchoke either.

Bet me going to the Twin Falls County Fair this year is going to be interesting, don’t ya’ll think?

Okay so have you seen the new Chiquita on MSNBC? Alex Wagner. Ain’t quite got her figured out yet, but from what I can absorb is she’d be better off doing news on the Disney or at least the E channel.

Not knocking the idea, eye candy is good when going against rivals FoX News. After all to work on FoX News as a female anchor one needs long hot legs, that are very shapely and well buffed. So what do you do if you’re the competition ? Ya’ll go find one of them Pacific Islanders who have cute tiny footed toes , who can at least talk and put her on the air.

I think most media is getting it now.

Like I have always said, we do radio Hazzard Style.

Speaking of, the 2013 running of the Miss Hazzard County contest will take place at the Turff Club , in Twin Falls. This year a $150,000.00 scholarship is up for grabs, a $50,000.00 modeling/acting contract, and a few other good prizes. Got a babe with Daisy Duke legs? If so, sign her up at knytesofanarchy@yahoo.com .

But naw I saw KMVT’s effort on behalf of FoX, and the 9:00 PM newscast, to which I say, here’s some Bromo Seltzer there KMVT, maybe don’t eat more than you can digest.

More after HazzardAyre Radio tonight, talking RomneyHood, and the Republicrats. Could Sarah Palin be the straw out of the bag to get Romney elected? Didn’t we see this last election?

HazzardAyre PowerBlock

First this morning I need to address some internal situations.

The White Caviler , is beginning to be a high dollar item. The job was taken on because we need the $.

However the labor alone, along with three specialty parts including the water pump, is just under $2,000.00 . Therefore I need James or Dale to call the customer, tell him if he wants us to go ahead with the work, we need a 1/4 of the cost up front, or $500.00 for parts and labor.

If he wishes to take the car, he can, if he pays the $450.00 in labor and shop time we already have in it.

Next today: From here on out remember we are a Harley Motorcycle repair shop, second, towing service first. If we do repair its bikes, and/or older year model hot rods. No more newer model repair jobs, we just do not have the tools for it, nor parts budget.

Last: On the Police car. I’d have liked making a bunch of money on both towing and storage of it. However , the owner is limited on cash. In that he is on welfare, food stamps etc. The guy just does not have it. Next he’s moving to southern California, which means if we don’t dump it now, we’ll be stuck with it. The costs to get a Sheriffs abandoned title is $100.00 which we don’t have this month due to the thefts involving LexiBelle. Thus to dump the car for the tow fee of $50.00 is better than nothing.

Last, I am sad to announce that we have lost a dear friend of SAMCRO MC. Ron Adams one of the founding 10, passed away last night.

For my crew, this means Jordan’s pay check will be delayed one week as our treasurer is gone to California to arrange things for the funeral. I’ll be looking at going as well later in the week.

So in summary, James and/or Dale call that guy on the car , tell him we need 1/4 of the money up front to finish the project , or he can pick it up after paying us the diagnostic fee of $450.00 .

No more newer model repair jobs, towing first, bikes second, older year/model hot rods third.

All need to meet at 14:00 hours at shop.

L8R Ya’ll

--Carl Sandburg

The only Confederate White radio personality who is not dating a Kardashian, Yet!!

Ever get the feeling like your in the wrong media market?

I’m beginning too. Yet creating not only my own show every day, of which all experiences are fodder for, but also creating my own radio stations and our network, is a real Nova. Yet there are times that I think, could what I do, be better off done in my dearly beloved deep south or even Los Angeles?

Then of course there are those who want to be on radio, yet really do not have a voice or the mental discipline to research information, mix music for a given format and put it on the air in a both informative as well as entertaining way.

I got lucky in my radio career. I got my inspiration from a radio pioneer, Robert Smith aka WolfMan Jack. Of course inspiration goes only so far. Two individuals stepped in, Big Kelly from KEZJ Twin Falls and Mike Arms from KEEP AM 1450 Twin Falls. From there I built my own style.

Of course radio even drama to begin with talent is just like coon dogs. There are Coon dogs that have to be trained. That training can take months if not years. Then there are Coon Dogs that take to it naturally. I like the Coon Dogs of radio that can come into the studio, sit down and go on air. Not taking anything away from Nurse GoodBody, but Robin Miss Dixie Diesel , Robin Whittaker of Rupert, came in, and took to that mic better than anyone I have ever worked with. She saw the gold in our ayrewaves and went to helping to build it.

But she is a subject of another time.

But I have an acquaintance here across the parking lot that wants to do what I do, but has no real grit talent, another is a hangaround at HCC, that also has no or little talent. But no talent in radio does not mean no success in radio. Just listen to the announcers on KMVT, and a few others in Twin Falls who sound like they are talking through their noses. Too nasal.

To whit: What do you think would happen if someone would start a class or educational program, at say CSI Burley or even Twin Falls’ campus, called for a lack of words here, Broadcast Essentials? Teach the skills, rake in some cash, and have a pond to fish from when we at Confederate Star are hiring.

Investigating today, will report tonight.

Got a 08:00 flight so see ya’ll in the afternoon.

Hear me on air tonight.
