Faceoff with Facebook, system meltdown

At first it was a system damn near meltdown here at the Wolf’s Den here in Ogden. Seems a little virus crawled in with a download, so had to debug my system. With everything near online and working tried 18 times to log into my Facebook account. Groovy, guess what? Every single posting of the club, and especially of HazzardAyre Radio pulled or masked over so no body can read it. Really Facebook? For what now since 2006 I have had an account with you and your going to treat me and the Knytes like this. Dang, go change your infantile diapers. Seems as though anything that even smells like an advertisement is getting masked over and II ‘m finding I’m not the only one. Half a dozen Facebook subscribers are getting the boot or at least covered over. No wonder Twitter, Google+ Pinterest and such are getting new business. You would think that Facebook would be open to grooming a simple subscriber into an advertising paying client, but no, they start pissing you off. Which begs the question, can an online enterprise survive without Facebook? More over is Facebook loosing ground so much that they need to be so mule headed? Maybe I need in fact to have a sponsored page, but even if you have that will Mark Zuckerburg’s critters in Palo Alto California, get a diaper rash so bad that you still get screened?

So we have heated up, the push to redoux everything from KOA to HCK, but the thing is, KOA has been on Facebook since 2008. Shit the account was set up on the back of KOA.

Some of this started with this new gig online with HazzardAyre. Which if I find out that , the service that is based on, is the foundation of our Facebook problems it’ll be history faster than Flash eating a doggy numnum. If needed we’ll get that Richie guy back in the works even if he does charge us $5,000.00 at least the site and what’s on it is ours. Controlled by, produced by, delivered by the Hazzard Knytes.

I may be wrong, Facebook just might be having tech problems, but I will say this the southern voice of the Hazzard Knytes will not be silenced.

So with all these computer problems, is why I wasn’t on air preve eve into early this morning.

Last nights Knytes High Council meeting was interesting. While I have beat my head against the headboard for nearly rebuilding the club under SAMCRO the fact is, what we started with is still working and we are known better by The Hazzard Knytes, so why change, like a Navy recruiter /former sales rep, for Confederate Steele Media once told me, You don’t fuck with number one.

On the 3rd I’ll be off line for a bit, the so called revenue generation we thought we’d be doing from the move from tweaker Flatts here to Ogden hasn’t been as rapid as I’d thought it’d be. My focus is beginning to shift a bit here. Club bizz is important and I dig that, but LexiBelle is coming home in May regardless of anything else. That said once she’s here with the equipment dealers etc here, I’m going to turn up the heat on Cooter’s A1 Toewing rather than so much wasted time on radio.

Until we find someone in this blooming nation that can build a streaming radio station tied directly to OUR own website, all this expense I’m using on HazzardAyre can be going to Cooter’s A1. Bottom line, time to get back to basics.

Changes in the Knyte

So we gathered by the river, really Warrens Burgers here in Ogden. Amongst me holding my head from way to much brewski the night before celebrating my half a century plus 5 birthday, and chowing down on food that I wished I hadn’t wasn’t all that good, too salty, and the veggies a bit old, the club met.

The Knytes high council, has decided through a bunch of deliberation, discussion and influencing to give the Knytes-of-Anarchy a pitch out the back window, and slowly divorce SAMCRO. However its not the death of the club. The major decision goes that we will revert to our original club name of Hazzard County Knytes. You heard it here first, the return of the formidable Hazzard County Knytes. With that comes a revision of our subsidiary the AyreWolvez.

The decision there is to remove and replace the AyreWolvez with the Ayre Knytes Aviation Association. Seems that all too many have thought the AyreWolvez was a bit too self serving to yours truly.

At first I was none to happy hearing this, after all since 2008 the consistent and constant efforts to build the Knytes-of-Anarchy has been my main reason for living. Problem is all too many outside the club, and even those who call it a ghost club, have mis categorized the club in its focus. The Knytes-of-Anarchy in part was formed on the heels of a popular TV show , however the focus has been more on heavy trucks, trucking and old skool trucking lifestyle rather than Harley’s or bikes. Although many of the club ride as well. The shop Hazzard County Choppers, is a custom bike shop so the inference is easy to understand, but for the 50,000 members the reason has been of the club, is to be the voice of the American Independent trucker/toewer , not just riding scoots. Of course the Knytes half of the Knytes-of-Anarchy is based on the name we formed on as what we are going back to now the Hazzard County Knytes, with the emphasis on Hazzard County/Southern culture and history-Heritage.

This all started a few months ago , but was brought to a head last Friday, when our webmaster said he was feeling a bit stressed on including the Anarchy thing in everything. Seems as though an MC in Reno was getting up in arms. I also remember well sitting on a cement step in Gooding in 2009, talking with the only voting female member there and her saying swapping out the Hazzard Knytes for Knytes-of-Anarchy was a mistake that might cost membership and support.

So where the Hazzard Knytes was put on hiatus in 2005 is reborn here in 2014, The Hazzard County Knytes lives and so does our reaper.

Ever get the idea that mother Russia has more liberty than we do?

I got a rather disturbing email from Brother E, about the fact that a certain time would be great for our rather my show, there is 11:00PM to 03:00 AM, overnight when only those that need to know are out prowling and working. Last night and the night before I went on early to roll the system over to a new web addy, and the last night because I had something else to do that we need not publicly speak on.

Then Brother E, said something about , ladies have a hard time listening to the show,, WELL EXCUSE ME PREMADONNAS , if you’re a gal that can’t listen to my show then your most likely not the kind of gal to be tuning into my show, course you’d also not go see Larry the Cable Guy, Jeff Foxworthy or Bill Engvall if they were in concert, would not be on the Howard Stern show, and if he were alive today skin WolfMan Jack who is my radio mentor.

So if I offended a few , that’s your problem, this radio show I do is for anticonformist, anti government influenced fight the system rebels , not people that want to cause a fuss.

Last but not least the Anarchy thing. Some are again having trouble with that. Excuse me, that’s the club , us, 50,000 strong. we are not going to just dissolve just because a few get a itch under their noses. KOA was around long before SOA, in fact KOA was founded right here near me in Layton on SEARS Bicycles in 1967 somewhere. Hazzard was brought in in 1982, and blended together from other subsidiaries. We are together with some rather notable people, one of our members still is Jerry Sloan former coach of the Utah Jazz, help create the Deere Dazzlers Association, back in 1997. No I’m not going to apologize for the Knytes-of-Anarchy. As we say still out of our Anarchy comes order.

With all that said, if your going to get censored, screened, and all, might as well do short band radio as in Radio Free Europe and do behind the Iron Curtain, It’s not just big E. I get this from many areas, but damn it all to hell, if your too racy we can’t have you.

Facebook even is having trouble with us, really? Facebook, of course too as I said, I can’t see Mark Zuckerburg at a appearance of Larry the Cable Guy either.

Nuff Said

I’m going to do my radio show for and about the club, and our southern rebel ideals, beliefs and customs. If you don’t like it, find a new channel. My show was number 1 in Pocatello on Vision 12 there, and this one will be too, since it is about and for us, The Knytes of Anarchy. be tuned in tonight 11:00PM(23:00) to 03:00 www.livestream.com/hazzardayreradio

At least Hooters and Anchors remembered

Been watching the weather and despite how bad I wanted sunshine, its going to be crappy. Which is normal considering I was hopping to get in some air time, in one of our Bell 506j’s.

Of course a few of you have said happy birthday, I just wish one would bring by a can of SKOAL, > everything and anything else I can handle not having.

Now I hear the noises from many that say, well we thought you had lotsa money. Nope, club has the money for radio station. Me I migrated to Utah for one reason, get my body in shape, go to Upper Limit Aviation at SLCC, and get my ass parked inside a chopper with advanced ratings, as it SAR and AirMed transport.

The radio gig and the possible opening of a facility in southwestern Wyoming is reach. At east for the tow truck, radio I see happening, but here’s the bad thing, when I moved, I moved old rigs that were not ready to be ran 204 miles, once let alone 5 times. LexiBelle sits just outside of Twin Falls ready to come home, the General JaXson sits in Layton repair completed, but between the phone, internet from Comcast at damn near $500.00 $245.00 I could see, $500.00 ? Same goes for DirecTV, which is my fault. Thing is much of this is on my back until its starts sprouting fruit, the disasters n Evanston, Gooding and Burley, has got the club in a wait and see mode. If enough outside support pours in to pay bills, then the club will match the amount dollar for dollar, but not until.

This is why when I had to pay for my move, pay, for my truck to be repaired, as well as OUR General, plus electric, and other deposits , if it weren’t for some area help I’dve starved by now.

So for my birthday it’d be nice to see just one of those that always say they are with me, bring me by a can of Skoal, >< yes this flavor.

But I can say this at least and I thought they forgot, but at least Hooters> remembered my birthday.

The what others wont we will

I may be driving the nail in the coffin of Free FaceBook, but things need to be said. Which is something that HazzardAyre and us the Reaper Crew that are the supporting cast and producers are not new to.

Ever since I read my first editorial, on a tiny radio station in Montpelier, I have always said, if you have something to say, say it. Especially on radio.  If there is an issue that’s plaguing people, HazzardAyre will dive right in, write about, talk about and pretty soon show it. Yes HazzardAyre will be going TV in June. Yes, you’ll see HazzardAyre Radio as we do it in studio, right there on IPTV.

Done right I might be able to slide this into Vision12. Hey I made that number one in the area, and cable access is not normally counted, but Vision12 was when I went on.  I dug into issues, I showed content few dared if any body else, but juggling two tv shows got to being a real effort, especially when it was me editing, shooting content, writing and delivering. There was Hazzard County TV, and AyreWolf/BlackSheep TV. Even then the club and many advisors said meld those two together somehow. After the Gooding disaster, Erin and Emme was talking to me about things, then one night in a slightly elevated , medicated due to coughs and colds, the title to it all came, HazzardAyre. The bringing together of two concepts, two shows where the machine was the hero, and where I can fly , tow, truck and ride, on the same damn show. In 2011, HazzardAyre went into full syndication playing on radio stations all over the area, while we kept trying to find how to deliver it legally over the air. While fyring up another pirate station is not really a bad idea, but getting caught is worse. Here in the heart of a city you can get away with that for awhile, since the FCC revenuers have trouble finding the exact location and house. In the kountry it’s a bit different, since the FCC revenuers , don’t really care. Unless your pumping big juices unless someone who gets jealous of your station and blows the horn, you can hammer down like you have wings. Even to the point big radio networks like NBC RADIO , when there was NBC Radio, we were the first radio station running TalkNet from NBC, which is where Sally Jessie Rapheal, polished her talents. Of course we rand several other shows, even Doctor Demento, which was bad, because I said, I can do that kind of radio. I can be bad ass. So I did. But that’s back in the mid 70’s to mid 80’s.  At all times though, Both Hazzard County Radio, Dixie Diesel Trucker Radio, RodeWolf Radio(pre AyreWolf) was syndicated, and produced as if it were live.

In 2002 I had barely moved to Layton, Utah. Set up ops there, was in the middle of cranking up a aviators bar/café just outside of Morgan, Utah . In fact I’m the first and only person that scored a exotic dance license for a bar in Morgan. The Mayor who was 80% LDS and 100% Woman was all enthusiastic. Had the Trust fund stayed together and not dissolved when those executives at Metro Securities near Portland Oregon, and out of Seattle got caught with their fingers in the cookie jar. Flying J was selling out to Pilot, so my financial base was collapsing. But Cuzzin Bud not being stupid did three things, got my Marine generated PTSD, to get me Social Security, Cuzzin Bud and Gordon, put together AyreWolf Aviation, based it at Bountiful Skypark, and made it to where the owners on paper are the AyreWolvez, so I could do it without showing I make anything. Same went for both Cooter’s A1 Toewing and Hazzard County Choppers. That’s owned by the Knytes-of-Anarchy, I just do things there to be of service as a volunteer, same goes with the radio station here. I’m just a volunteer, I make nothing doing this.

We report on what few will if any will. Like now:

Have you noticed that Facebook is getting even more picky about content? Bottom line if it smells like something Facebook can money with they will block your content and make you buy advertising to pump it up. Don’t even think your going to Ball park Frank, something like a radio show for long there without some little hardly dry behind the ears Facebook cyber cop, throwing up a road block. Even if your promoting your own site which is what I has been doing, but guess what, Facebook said no direct links without an ad. so I figured a work around.

Have you noticed that here lately no TV is worth a fart any more, especially after 2:00AM(02:00) ? Sure there are movies well sort of on HBO and all, but any more with NetFlix and outfits like Hulu, and PPV, on the satellite networks, HBO’s offering have been rather boring.

Any more if you just get a basic package on pay TV I think your alright, why keep paying more for less. And the number of channels is not the problem, its crap for content. METV has good stuff, but I still throw out the challenge, and question why is it none of these networks like METV, started running BJ & The Bear, and/or BlackSheep Squadron? Of course both of those shows are owned by Universal, which is owned by NBC which is owned by GE, which is owned by Comcast. All of which make a monopoly which I thought was outlawed when the Government finally broth up the Bell System, and A.T.& T.

Of course there is the condition of the LDS thing. Many converse with me on this and say doesn’t the church leaders make you nervous. Surprise, many of the church’s truckers piloting for Deseret Transportation, inside the office and the service shop from Rocky in the tire shop, to Peggy at dispatch they tune into HazzardAyre. In fact it was Rocky that gave me my radio name AyreWolf. The church likes what I do. If you don’t believe that, watch the TV show on BYU called Granite Flats , you’ll see a lot of my influence there.

The thing that it comes to to bottom line this, the Knytes-of-Anarchy is made up of 50,000 members coast to coast, if you include the AyreWolvez our military warbird subsidiary, the club has 55,000 members. All who do different jobs and careers, that might just surprise you. We have business owners, even a Sheriff and a Chief of Police and former Chief of Police that is a Knyte, or a member of the club. A business that does good by the club, can look forward to getting business from club members on an individual basis. Ignore or try to flim flam the club, you might as well close the doors because the Knytes will close you down.

Any mile have things to prep today, so will see you on the flip around.

If you want to socialize don’t visit Facebook

It’s not just me, many people who used to put stuff on their page, and thus it filters down to those who follow you, to theirs, but put anything that even merely, lightly looks or tastes like a ad, and you’ll get your posting blocked. Example, I started telling people that HazzardAyre Radio is on the air and where to go hear it, mainly us, more mainly me. Guess what, I could say go hear it, but can’t any longer put up the url. Guess that being informative is too much like an ad, and we’ll you get blocked.

I never thought that Mark Zuckerburg, and Facebook, was so hungry and needing of greed cash that they’d be so picky. Is this a way to treat a future advertiser? Its more like fertilizer. So what part of social is Facebook? Is it informing your club or group where they can go find THEIR radio show on THEIR radio station? If it is, then Facebook does not know the definition of the word, social. Any time content is policed, any time content is blocked, the word social applies, but not liberty, more along the lines of Socialism. aka Communism.

BTW , HazzardAyre is on the air, we are teaching and reaching even more people. Stay tuned, HazzardAyre can’t be stopped.

Do it right or don’t do it all

Sorry about not being on air preve night into early morning, but had a roll over up Morgan county and a all hands load off project was in play. By the time I got done it was home, shower , try to eat, then bed pretty much in order.

So as I scarfed down, a French bread frozen nearly still pizza I was looking over the news on Yahoo, since Facebook just quite does not have important journalistic level news yet . So I noticed that there is a new site called I Heart This. So to be curious I wandred over to the site or at least tried to. Now there is two reasons mainly a site does not load up, one it’s a corrupted or corrupt to begin with and my firewalls say no you ain’t going there or the site is screwed to begin with. Which begs me to ask are all too many companies no matter what they make, offer or build so damn greedy that they over look quality just for quantity? More over putting up a gall damn website just to put one up, without making it function to its ultimate level, to me is dumb. It goes to the saying some said in Hazzard years ago, goes, “ its one thing to make people think your stupid , than to open your mouth and remove all doubt” In these days of cybernetics, if your going to put up a website do it right or just don’t do it, as a dumb, frequently erroring site will turn people off of your site and your company fast.

More in the morning, my body is spent,
