Where Is Hazzard Idaho?

So much to tell so little time. Hazzard Idaho is a mythical place located between Hagerman and West Point Idaho, just off of U.S.-30. Hazzard became Hazzard in the spring of 1982, shortly after a few enterprising youth then as a crew of the REAL , Hazzard County Garage in the real Hazzard Idaho, decided to create a small rural gear heads old nostalgia based hot rod club, in 1980.

Hazzard became a real small town of then 125 people as part of a referendum that passed the Idaho Legislature, in the fall of 1981 and city hall was located at 3006 National Fish Hatchery Road. The road became Deere Creek road several years later. Hazzard Idaho, is home to Shady Grove Dairy Farms, Sandy Farms, Rangen Trout Farm and that’s a short list. The town boasts 250 people today.

That’s the story of Hazzard Idaho.

Mysteries we may never know the answers to

There are things that will remain mysteries, unless acted on by an opposite force, even then may remain obscure forces.

Examples; What Penny of the Big Bang Theory’ last name is. We all know Bernadette and Amy’s last name, yet Penny’ remains a hidden name. Unless she marries Leonard we may never know.

Like why it is that somebody you pitch a job to, to run a radio station one he or she was removed from and never did get his or her just rewards from, does not just jump in and at least go to coffee or whatever beverage with you to discuss. From an old entry, Time nor opportunity waits on no one . KDXC will be here no matter what, but a $50k a year career offering wont last forever.

Like why it is that there is no Artic Circle or at least a Chuck O Rama is not in Evanston, yet bustling like an artesian well in Twin Falls, Idaho. Not really a mystery there since Twin Falls has grown like the Mary Jane plants near that city has.  Which is why our Buhl station remains on air, yet no one ever has filed to gain those 3 frequency allocations there. Amazing ain’t it?

Like really why women failed to take the British fashion cue to start wearing nylons, but love to wear Yoga pants, showing off their inner most private parts. Many of those should wear a girdle as well. Why even the most introverted people, especially female, will not be a pin up poster girl for an aviation publication, produced by a Vintage warbird aircraft enthusiasts organization, yet will wear shorter and do more of a tease at church? Or worse at a local bar.

These are the Mysteries we may never know the answers to.

NO AC AND MOM

So there I was having a great dream about my younger days in Hazzard, skipping rocks across Hazzard Creek, and catching frogs by the bank thereof, and I remembered the days of at Mothers Day I’d take my farm hand money and take mom to eat. Now Mom knew that I didn’t make much then maybe netting $40.00 to $75.00 so she’d choose going to the Artic Circle(AC) drive inn over in the neighboring town of Buhl. So I got a hankering for a burger and fries at AC. When I realized I was in Evanston Wyoming, and as usual here, no AC, here. Granted I can understand that there is no Olive Garden, no Outback Steak House, or even a Red Robin , here but no AC? For those from back east and those who love fry sauce, that is mostly mustard, ketchup and mayo whipped together, was invented by Artic Circle along with the great confection from Utah, Green Jello, and with Evanston being 80% LDS you’d think there’d be an AC here, but no. No AC in Evanston. That really bytes, when you can’t even go to an AC, to renew memories on Mothers Day.

When it comes to my mom, there is no finer example of the greatest of Mom’s anywhere. Many say so, and while others are nice well and good, my mom took on the status, of the Mom most would like to be. Very self educated, read most everything that was written as far as any book, magazine, newspaper and oh the medical books. Guess that comes from being an Navy Nurse, but the farm was where Mom was most at peace. My mom would feed the chickens, ducks and just about every form of wild avian bird on the continent . We had em all, even those damn peacocks that would keep me awake all night with their squawking. I mean these damn things would squawk at any movement in or around the house. My mom sanded , Varathained and sanded again every single door in the big house we built there, and there were 18 of them. Which made me sad the last time, I visited there a few years ago. The new people had used them in the old Garage. To many of you that Garage was where the first prototype of the famed General Lee was built, back then the car was based on a 69 Chevy Caprice, that we painted John Deere Orange/Yellow since that was all we had. The car ran the number 69, which is still registered with NASCAR for DIXIE/DEERE Racing, for us and the Knytes, but I’m getting off course.

During her professional career, mom designed the swept back wings for the F-111-A Fighter, that USAF flew and still use on two of its aircraft along with the Navy and USMC aircraft. Mom was on the design crew in fact team leader on the landing gear on the C5-A Galaxy. But Mom’s heart belonged to the farm, and of course the Confederacy. Being Born in Gilmer Texas, in 1921. Mom did her part as a Navy Nurse and before that as a WASP. I don’t know how many of my kin folk, and even the entire community of the Magic and Hazzard Valley of Idaho, was financially provided for and large mega thousands of dollars enhanced by Mom, Mom had a heart, which in my view all too many took advantage of. But her focus was on me. Between Mom and Dad I don’t think I missed anything or wanted for one damn thing. Don’t get me wrong, mom was a severe discipline Mom. If I did something deserving a swat on the butt , I got it, and at times so bad I couldn’t sit for weeks, but I got the message. As I grew older and did not want to get out of bed to go to school or do chores, Mom discovered those electric cattle prodders. I’d say I’m not getting up, under the bed clothes I’d feel that probe and to say it quick I WAS out of bed pronto.

I’m very sure that both the Trustee’s of the Montgomery Foundation are being punished by my Mom for forcing me out of that house on the hill in Hazzard, a condition that should never have happened. Granted it was out in the middle of nowhere, and yes Internet amongst other things would be a challenge there. But I loved that place, where all you heard at night was the whine from those big rig tires on the big road on US 30 across the Snake River, and the cooing of morning doves, and of course those damn quails. Mom loved those damn birds. She’d no more allow someone to hunt on our place and I remember that sawed off shotgun, being put on two hunters that tried to hunt those quail, Mom just stood there looking like Dirty Harry(Clint Eastwood) thinking, go ahead make my day.

I’m getting weepy eyed here so I’ll close, but there will be no mom and hardly any Mom in the Mountain West, that upheld the standards, of Mom like mine, and even fewer that could uphold the standard of being Mrs. Montgomery, like my mom.

Now if Evanston could just get an Artic Circle here.

No Ticky no Laundry, don’t spit in the face of the Knytes of Anarchy

There’s an old song from that went you don’t take the mask off the Lone Ranger, You don’t take the cape away from Superman and in this case you never ever spit in the face of the Knytes-of-Anarchy. With 100,000 members coast to coast 500 right here in Wyoming, spitting in the face of the club, might put your town on the blacklist of the club, and the money we generate for that community. Yet I see where that has happened twice here, and there are many now regretting that action, but wont admit it just yet. The heart of Wyoming’ charter is not in Evanston but 50 miles east of here, however that being said the 250 members in this area are growing very impatient on the slow progress of the projects we had in mind here, mainly the radio station concept project. You’d think that the town and many that say they are all for it would put up some green or at least stand up for the club doing its best against many odds to get us there. Who knows what the AM side of the radio project will do, we are waiting for some very stubborn people with primary interest in the AM here to get off the commode and say yes, if all it is , is some minor legalities and licensing bullstuff of which the club will pay for. Then what’s the hold up? We are proposing to remove from all responsibility all prior events and legal problems that the old AM here endured, and bring back Evanston’ and This community called I-80 a serious radio station, that would create a few jobs, but also be the main if not only station currently licensed to the city of Evanston. Additionally the TV station would create more jobs in broadcasting here, and at least Evanston could be known for more than being a hub for Union Pacific and a Chinese tourists center. More over be known more as a progressive community, that other major firms decide they should be here, rather than the community that drowned due to its own conceit and greed. Sure the oil fields here broke the back of this town, but rather than be arrogant and ignorant if some body or a group is throwing you a life line, you don’t just toss it asside. At least people with common sense. The Knytes have plans for this town to lift it up. Look at just one of them, The Hazzard Nationals a week long celebration of everything Dukes-of-Hazzard and southern culture, here would increase this towns to about 200,000 plus put the town on the map, this would get the attention of company executives looking for a place to invest money in. The owners of the old Lotty’s that was aimed to be the next Reapers Club, have their heads in the clouds if they think they would bring in anybody who would rent that place for $4,000.00 a month, plus have to go in and do a bit over $700k worth of remodeling and reconstruction only to find they can’t get a liquor license for the place, it just wont happen. Add to that the fact that we’re trying to assist this town. Sure some jackass came here long before we did and soured the milk so to speak, but we ain’t he. Can ya dig that? Looked in on the old Sonic location as a maybe spot for our nostalgia style drive inn . $600k, talk about greedy. Guess the City council member here that wants this place to be another Park City is getting his wish. Problem is the state of this town wont support that. 80% of Evanston is on a fixed income, or working for really crappy wages. The cable TV system needs an overhaul, but they too are to arrogant to admit it, and its take it or leave it. I’m just about to the point of leave it. But I’m waiting on my rides to be brought to over the road condition and see what happens with this last run at the AM to go with our FM. If that goes sour, so do I, and this sub charter of the Knytes will go with. And that will mean another black mark on Evanston.

I am proud and honored to be a Conservative, Confederate American

tHERE seems to be a growing opinion that I’m anti LDS and more over anti Evanston, the opposite is true. I’m more for putting a burr under the saddle of this young fledgling community. I hear from so many that this town is hurting for jobs and economic improvement. Yet many of those who say that are some of the same that fight the progression of industrial and technologic improvement here. I’m not saying we should get away from our rural roots, rural and Kountry-fied life is not bad infact being rural and kountry breeds some great ideals, and deters riff raff. That said, teaching north western Yankee’s that what they learned in High School history class’s of the war of Northern aggression is only a smidge of the truth. Tell your fellow Evanston-ite that, Abraham Lincoln was an outright liar and writer of of what would become Marxism and communism, and you’ll get an entire group of folks looking down at you. You don’t have to be a person born in the deep Confederate states, to be a Confederate, nor is the Confederate southern movement confined to the original 13 southern states. The Confederate’s also came west. There are places in southern Utah, western Idaho and here in Wyoming that were Confederate sympathizers and stayed true to their Southern roots even though they trapped, farmed and homesteaded this area of the Mountain west.

Several years ago, after I made it back to southern Idaho during the last census inventory, a group of older women came to my place in Bliss Idaho, when it came to the question of my ethnicity I simply said, I’m a Confederate American. This completely messed these women’s minds up they had no idea of how to deal with that. Beth Ann on CSC TALK RADIO said yesterday on her early morning show that is still heard here on HazzardAyre Radio, that in a way we today are fighting a real albeit corrected for the current time, but fighting a Civil War. This nation is so divided that its starting to stink worse than the trash can behind JB’s Café here in Evanston’s trash bin. ISIS and others its said is the cause, maybe so and certainly the invasion of our nation on 9/11 did not help much, and many are still feeling that, but in a way the terrorists won, the put in their boot, the opening of division. Remember the old adage , Divide and conquer. They divided us alright and in short steps they are winning. This feeling is felt coast to coast in every possible part of this nation. Members of the Knytes-of-Anarchy, feel it this way, we will not be assimilated. Resistance is not futile. You who are Star Trekies understand that as when the Borg wanted to assimilate the crew and the Federation, they wanted to make everybody the same with only a few rulers. Remove individual liberties and independent thought. And our political leaders, our congress , and government is aiming that idea right up your pie hole, and if your not watching quick and slow to react, that very thing will happen. You’ll wake up to find all your freedoms removed. You’ll get up and be eating with chopsticks and or borsch or something, in control from some Islam nation. The only defense is to be a rebel, conservative confederate, even think Mountain West Confederate. This attitude and thought is at the core of both the Knytes-of-Anarchy and HazzardAyre Radio. I say its time we take back our nation and as Beth Ann says on CSC Talk Radio, Bring America home, but I say its time to fight the system, be anti-establishment, and not only bring America home, but make America comfortable again, where saying prayer, loving Heavenly Father, and saying grace over a meal, even in a public café somewhere is not looked down at. So in closing, it’s the same thought, I am proud to be a Conservative Confederate American.

Is it the drugs your taking or are you that stupid to begin with?

Here we have Evanston Wyoming, that still is very confused as to its place on Earth. Don’t get me wrong , just like elsewhere, even Hazzard you have assholes, and good people, and at times you have a combination of both an asshole and a good person, usually that comes as a religious fanatic such as a member of an LDS Ward’s Bishopric, or one of those teachers, but I’m getting off course here so lets retune to the common vector here.

Evanston in reality sits on the state line of both Utah and Wyoming. Think of Evanston as the little kid, on the street in a rather large city. On one hand its very tempted to go in and look at the go-go dancing saloons, as Evanston has a few along with Off-track betting and Wyo Downs, yet in reality Evanston still holds onto a slight tether to Salt Lake City, and of course Metro Utah. Evanston for as long as I can remember and I have resided in as lived in the area since 1997 and have seen much come and go. Evanston yearns to be the Wyoming lone cowboy thing yet also holds on for dear life as Utah’s best kept secret. Look at just the utilities? Electric power here? Rocky Mountain Power(UTAH COMPANY) natural gas for heat, Questar(UTAH COMPANY) Cable/Internet, AllWest (UTAH COMPANY) So is it in Utah or are we in Wyoming? I think of looking at state line drawings I looked at during the engineering work for HazzardAyre Radio here. What I saw was the maps of where the state borders was at, and it looked like some drunk guy took a Crayola Crayon and drew it. Randolph to Woodruff is pretty straight but then it jigs and jags, around Evanston until becoming somewhat straight again towards Vernal Utah. Really? Why not just let Utah either annex Evanston, or lets allow Evanston to be Wyoming. And put up the gates and say this is Wyoming, Utah go home. I want to see on our cable TV system at least one channel from either Casper or Cheyenne , with WYOMING NEWS, not what’s going on in Salt Lake City. I want to pay my utilities to a Wyoming utility company, both gas and power, not a Utah company, See where I’m going here? There’s many on our city council that says they want progress here, even one that wants to see Evanston become another Park City Utah. Why does Evanston love Utah and Salt Lake City so much? Of course some of this stems to the LDS connection. But likewise the church is everywhere, even back to Twin Falls, Idaho where I was raised but you don’t see Twin Falls nursing off of Metro Utah’s hind teat like Evanston does. Just this last week I talked at church no less, but talked to a person there about doing old style radio plays. Years ago, before the invent of TV and even before TV was here in Evanston, that you got your entertainment from RADIO. You gathered around the old Victrola or RCA, radio, hear those tubes in there heat, and listen to the Lone Ranger, Fiber Magee and Molly, and even the mysteries of THE SHADOW. That’s just what you did. Now what if, HazzardAyre Radio took you back to that time? Lets say we get in a larger studio, and do up taped radio dramas, written by and acted with local High school and other drama departments? Then aired them, as Hazzard Radio Theater? That’s what I call community involvement and saying we are just as good as anything coming out of Utah. Think I’m grabbing a piece of star lite? Think this way, KMGR out of Spring City Utah, does just that, and people really gather in the audience to watch the recording of radio dramas, put on by locals there? This even got a bit of KSL TV ink, the other night. I also thought, what if the residents of Evanston and of course Wyoming were cut off from Utah. Let’s say that at about Castle Rock I-80 got blocked to the point where this city couldn’t be as easily accessed to Metro Utah? My whole rant here is this, this city is Wyoming, not Utah, or if we want to be Utah, lets let Utah annex the town of Evanston, and enjoy that, its called make up your mind.

If Heavenly Father needs me in Evanston, why wont he get me laid?

I must love the taste of feet , cause I’ve been putting my foot in my mouth. Earlier this evening I posted an entry here on the blog of all things Hazzard County Kountry, about just folding the tents and leaving. However, found out that the license to go over air is pending, at a mere few thousand bucks which is while expensive still doable. So looks like I’m ROS(Remaining-on-Station) in more ways than one, which renews the very reason I came up here, to build and own/run a radio station on behalf of the OTR unit of the Knytes-of-Anarchy the Rode Knytes. Okay so looks like KDSL(KAY-DIESEL}IS GOING TO MOVE FORWARD. Guess I was at the bottom, God pulled me up and flat reminded me that time is nigh best get at it, quit your boobing and get in gear . So since it may take a few to get the rides in OTR condition, just do what I do and do radio.

My question though is this, if Heavenly Father wants and needs me in Evanston why can’t he get me at least laid, if not someone serious? Case closed.

So Daniela of CenturyLink don’t count us out now.

More Friday eve overnight on www.livestream.com/hazzardayre after the Knytes High Council meeting here.

Heard from Ricky current charter President of the Knytes in Twin Falls, that he ran through 3 inches of snow plowing through Jackpot, guess it decided to turn rain by the time it got here. So had this too, maybe it gets bad weather when I decide to just drop this and move. Maybe the way to warm weather and all is for me to stay put and do this swing gig, after all.

Last but not least, and its only a slight gripe, why can’t Pizza Hut deliver faster? Took 45 minutes, to get here, but I still had to pay for it, nothing big, but what do you do?
