The cold wind doeth blow through my house

Oh how the wind doeth blow through my house. After two weeks of unseasonably warm weather where certain things like calking around windows properly should have been done, now the wind does blow through. Reminds me a bit of the trailer house out Yellow Creek way I was living in.

The difference between there and here is, I’m paying more in rent, and I have to pay for the electricity to keep warm and lit. Which I was supposed to get some sort of public help with , but ain’t heard squat from either DFS or whatever department that goes through. Sure I got the Bishop to help with the rent this month, but hey isn’t that what I was going to a multitude of agencies for? Sure I didn’t get subsidies in Idaho, but hell, never needed them, Idaho’s energy costs are far lower than western Wyoming. If the next question is why the hell don’t you just move? First the Bishop is working with me so I can escalate through the LDS Priesthood, which is extremely important to me. Second before I move home to Idaho, I’d like to have all my radio station and personal things paid for and back into my paws and third, maybe the Wyoming governors office needs to hear from me in regards to the dragging of feet on what ever benefits I’m entitled to.

I got a chuckle though last week, when Tuesday I called on my EBT card in Utah being transferred to Wyoming, the lady from the Utah Department of Workforce Services asked a simple question, “ what kind of idiots are working in that DFS office in Evanston ?” Such circumstances is why I fully support, the concept of Utah, annexing Evanston. Wyoming government agencies are way too far off to serve Evanston properly, so putting such things in the hands of Utah would be a plus. Although I think both Utah and Wyoming, needs to study how Idaho does these things and how Idaho streamlines these services.

So then outside there’s snow, just a skiff but come afternoon when folks are heading to Church, junior(Adam) had better have the snow plowed. I fully understand the connection of messing with mother and cub here, but damn it , if Junior is to be the maintenance person here, he ought to do the work. I’m still waiting for a curtain rod to be mounted. I asked for that a month ago now.

Dig this, the owners of the Wentworth here got a power shut off notice to the office, a week or so ago they got a shut off notice from CenturyLink, what’s next gas company?

Needless to say I’m looking for other quarters.

Then of course, Junior had to be having all day and all night get togethers. Sure you can have guests, but hey that many minors with an adult boy toy? Can you say arrest? Can you say law suit? There needs to be an adult here onsite monitoring these things, and I’m looking into it.

Any mile, I’m tired, need to prop up the kickstand take a load off , study my church books and catch some sleep, but in closing I wonder what would happen, if I withheld the amount of gas and power used to heat this place from my rent, because its not insulated well enough?

It’s all about big money, and kiss my ass Ebay

So I’m online reading some news from the Slime News of Twin Falls, which only lets you read a couple of articles before they demand you subscribe. Aren’t you glad there’s a free paper still(HazzardAyre Gazzette) any mile I get this pop up from Ebay saying I can’t bid any more. With no explanation as to why. So if I see something on Ebay I like, I’ll just contact the seller involved, pay cash and Ebay can kiss my Confederate ass.

Damn Yankee carpetbagging swashbucklers. Never can trust no damn Yankee no how no way.

If I need something, I’ll just go to the store here locally, that way if I get ripped off, I’ll just go kick the asshole that sold it to me in the head and be done with it, hey MR. NiceGuy left.

Then I read that a cat named Slaymaker over in Twin Falls took a bunch of dairy farmers to the cleaners. Remember the guy that did up that great video on RFDTV about his hay cube company? Well the guy spent tons of money on Meth, didn’t deliver product and now will live at the prison out on Gowen field near Boise. And then some folks call us , more over me a con dude. Maybe more should listen to members of the Knytes and do as we do, rather than taking these smooth talking shysters at their word.

It’s just like here in Evanston, some guy comes in promising the moon to the citizens over KEVA AM, and then not knowing we walk in and are busting our ass to really do something with the aged old station. Yet, people bought that dudes bullstuff, and now we are having an even harder time getting things in gear. Speaking of which , got wind today our FCC License app has been granted and will be viewable on the FCC Docket page sometime in 10 days.

Okay then, was looking over my kitchen cabinet for something to eat, my knee is acting up so didn’t want to truck over to the store.

So found some Bean and Bacon soup, guess that don’t keep forever. After I upchucked that got out some veggy soup, and tried to make hot dogs, well trying to do that without a boiling pan is an art. Its not just the radio gear Bishop being held in Woods Cross, Utah, it’s every thing I own including pots, pans, eating utensils , lets find some way to pay this off.

Okay then, so tried to make hot dogs. That idea went belly up, so as bad as I hate it, bought a TV dinner, and some milk for a few days. And ate a bowl of cereal.

Big companies no longer care about the people they sell things to, its just how much bread they can make off each sale. Product quality and consumer satisfaction is just a forgotten conclusion. Our nation is in dire straits, and there’s only one way out and its this> and this> Here in the west its simply us> any questions, its time for some people to quit listening and watching the con artists and start trusting in us. Together we can and will repair this nation. We have done it Abe Lincoln’ way for 200 years, its now time to try it Jefferson Davis’ way for the next 200 years.

We believe. So should you.

One last thought until 4;00AM

That’s the thought.

It ought to be different and aimed at your own age group

I have always said , Mark had the right idea, when he conjured up Facebook. Only thing is, is he and Facebook ought to set it up to where the friends you add , if you want to add friends are from your region and age group. It’s like that banner that asks here’s some people you may know. really? I don’t know one of them. The people I add as friends usually are those that I know in the REAL WORLD, MY WORLD, not some teeny bopper from NYC, First of all don’t know anybody from NYC and although I’m supposed to love everyone and treat everyone like I want to be treated, I tolerate Yankees, but I ain’t to much in welcoming them with open arms as friends.

But as I posted earlier at the top of my Facebook page, addressed hopefully at those that screen facebook from Palo Alto California, don’t ask me to add friends if you question me adding them.

This old road wolf don’t cotton to no Yankees.

By July I’ll be back in my own woods, I have had it with Wyoming. Or at least Evanston.

Details at 04:00

Same Road , different day

It’s Saturday the day of rest and original Sabbath day. So I do as I normally do, sleep all day, read my bible and church books and keep the day Holy. Occasionally go take a peak online then go back to reading.

Sometimes I’ll check Facebook and Yahoo and see something interesting or funny, but here lately it seems both are extremely lame, if anything on there at all.

D-Carters pics get too smutty, I’d like to see more tow trucks photographed, and a few of the big rigger appreciated a few of us driving the hook, this past week in some parts of the nation that loved the tow trucker.

Of course there was JunkYard Dolls, I looked but didn’t find it interesting. My question for most of those pages is, you’ll pose that way for free to near free, but you wont come out here and photograph with tow trucks for a $1,000.00 a day, amazing.

I guess I’m getting older, grumpier and more set in my ways, but I can report, my masculine equipment still works, woke up this afternoon and had a stiffy. haven’t had afternoon wood for quite some time.

Still can’t watch TV and some how this year I’m not really missing NASCAR and the 500. Last year, pretty much made me want to distance myself from that although I can’t cause being an old bootlegger gotta love stock cars, but the big money, the big fights, the big fines. Phooey I’d rather watch Mirinda at Magic Valley SpeedWay, running with Rebel Racing than watching Danica Patrick on FoX or the big races.

NASCAR has gotten stale, kinda like Facebook. It’s okay, but not enough panache to interest me much any more.

There ought to be a business version of Facebook, I know you say there is, its called LinkedIn but LinkedIn wants money to be part of that, any web page thingy that I gotta pay money for I ain’t interested in. I think , TV, and radio should remain free, to listen to and enjoy whether that’s on air or online, HazzardAyre Radio, still is free to listen to.

THE bottom line? Its a sharp looking tow truck of any size, or a gal in nylon stockings , and you have my complete interest. Finally saw some rather troubling images online. Some couple did a tow truck up like good old Cooter’s. Which I’ll remind all, both Ben and Alma are two of the dearest people to me that there is, Ben is still the President of the Knytes, but what disturbs me is when I see a tow truck other than mine. My old LexiBelle is the ONLY tow truck authorized and blessed by both Ben and Alma and the studio to wear the Hazzard Garage nameplates.

Finally, here at the Wentworth. I don’t know how this is going to play out, but Adam my next door neighbor sure has a bunch of company over on the weekends, but I wonder if his mother the property manager here, knows that her son is running a brawdy house here.

Too much noise.

No matter, I’m only here until I get things in order to go home to Idaho. I’m way too tired of Wyoming.

Last post of the night

As I get ready to turn in for night I am done with ragging on the Cable system here. I have said my piece and ready to move on.

I have been criticized for using what some call scantly cladded images for our website’ graphics. I’d much rather use just as pretty gals in more modest attire, if I could only find them. I like many whose blood does not boil every time they see near naked women, would just assoon get gals in cowgirl jeans, long dressy gowns, form fitting flight suits etc. How about fully dressed tight leather neck to toe for bike shots? I’d go for that. Lets face it, even some of the gals used on such action photos should not be in a g-string. Their bodies are just not that flattering, plus too much woman takes away from the rig or such they are posing with. The idea of a gal with a rig, warbird etc is to enhance, not dominate the shot, or pic. I did a shot once of a cheerleader that belonged to the Filer High School squad in Filer Idaho, with a customized IH pulling tractor. The white vinyl go-go boots and all complimented the tractor, but let the beauty of the tractor shine through.

EasyRiders along with others have gotten too smutty. Which is why we at Hazzard County Choppers will not sell EasyRiders Magazine anymore. Put some clothes on these gals, make the attire work with the theme of the bike, tow truck etc, not the other way around.

But alas we have to use what photos we can gather from online sources since nobody in our part of the country wants to do any photography for and with HazzardAyre.

As I close, I was reading in my LDS Priesthood book, about how quorum members are there to help each other become more united. I agree, the restriction of using fast offering money to bail out the radio gear in Woods Cross was a long stretch at best, and that radio gear is not seen as survival money, but it is my hand up , not a hand out, since the radio gear helps me earn a living outside of going towing. Additionally I don’t think everyone including our beloved Bishop who I think is a great person in every way, but I don’t think he gets the connection here of going towing and the radio station thing. The radio station is based on the basic premise of giving the over the road , long haul trucker and towing professional towing owner/operator a voice. Both over the air and on Internet radio. Yes of course southern historical preservation is part of our core mission, but both HazzardAyre and Dixie Diesel Radio was established as the western voice of the American Trucker/Toewer . To broadcast to truckers/toewers you have to be a trucker or toewer. Not just dress up like one and be a poser. That’s the connection I toew and do radio for others that truck and toew.

So I know that using fast offering money to bail out the radio gear might have been a bit askew, still maybe between many in that quorum could perhaps take up a collection, say 15 of our brethren at a $100.00 a piece would get the job done. I know there are a few in our Priesthood that could afford to help.

Any mile, going in, and to many who ask, yes I could really use my medication, which too along with my cell phone is sitting in that office in Woods Cross Utah, and yes I could use that lithium right now, just haven’t made the connection to the who that can prescribe and deliver that prescription.

Can these problems be fixed? If so whose going to pay for it?

Can these internet connection problems be fixed? The answer is yes, if you throw enough money at it, the question then becomes who is going to pay for it? The answer ? Just about everyone needing more bandwidth Internet .

Again we as a broadcaster as well as over the road towing organization, had these same problems in 2013, so we relocated to Utah, where most of the bandwidth problems ended. I had no problem in paying $200.00 for service as it was nearly goof proof. I can count on one hand only three times Comcast went down and none while we had the service with CenturyLink. That one I paid $175.00 a month for. In both cases things were so good I could do more than three things online at once without getting error or reload problems.

So I tuned into one of my archived shows on LiveStream, www.livestream.com/hazzardayre trouble was it’d go for a 20 minute run then have to reload, which gets to be one pain in my six(butt) . Here I’m studying my LDS Priesthood book, getting into a groove and my show had to keep reloading. So I checked my speed. 0.73 download. Really? Bottom line unless I see improvement here its going to be a combination of CenturyLink for phone and a T1 for Internet and Dish for TV.

Thing is though I wonder, how many of my audience is getting short changed here? I mean if I can’t load up my show and hear it full length, they probably means they can’t either. Which starts biting my wallet.

I have talked to at least 100 of the people in Evanston that I deal with on a daily basis. They all say the same thing, for heavy traffic internet, here there must be an improvement and most of that 100 are willing to pay $200.00 a month to see it happen.

Some of the higher up’s at AllWest need to drive out of Kamas Utah and come up here and fix the shortcomings or at least sell the system to some organization that can. Oh one of those interested in buying the system? The Knytes-of-Anarchy. Might as well, as we end up buying everything else and fixing it.

For the short term, I’m keeping AllWest for a internet connection, only for the time we need to get our own T1 connection up. The rest of it? Well Monday , I’m taking my cable unit to AllWest here and cancelling that out, since I can’t use it and setting up with Dish Network.
