Ever wonder why?

Ever looked at a condition situation and just Wondered Why? Like early Tuesday(today) morning whilest I was watching Highway Through Hell, on the Weather Channel, the thing kept freezing and loosing signal. The wonder here, is the dang thing operates great whilest its snow and cold, but here it is warm, sun out and Now Allwest is having problems. Okay so I’m a bit late with the blooming bill, but I can’t help they send the bill mid month around the 20th, instead of on the 1st or at least the first week of the month when I have money to pay it. But still I called em about it, everything is cool, they say, so what gives? Allwest is a very small rural cable/internet/VOIP phone company that needs lots of improvements, yet is having trouble finding money for those improvements. They are 90% of the time up, but it does get frustrating at times. I have a ton of suggestions and could improve the system, but my comments get ignored. Oh well work with what you got right?

Okay the frost is off the pumpkin of my birthday, still in my recovery mode from a bit too much celebration, but navigating okay. As I sat in thought earlier, the idea of, okay I said to myself, you have made 56 years old. You’ve seen everything, done just about everything, experienced more than most, but look at you. You hold on with SSI for now, military pension at 60 you should be towing, not just waiting for Evanston and immediate area finding its way to the 21st Century, yet stays mired in the 19th Century. Is there a cure, for that mindset? Sure, but that’d take more than myself or the Knytes are willing to invest. But one must ask as I did, where did the core for all you do, club, radio station all of it go? The reason that this club , the radio station all of that was created and enhanced by my company for, was to reinforce and uplift the company. Yet while the company drags on the club prospers, the radio station however drags, and is at a stop, all due to moving to this frigid piece of real estate called Evanston Wyoming. A condition that is looking to be cured in two months or less. Just like many other people, you go where the work and money is, not where you keep getting sucked under like being stuck in quick sand.

So I ask, Allwest and Phil again, how come the signal to my cable TV kept getting froze and kept going out this early Tuesday morning?

I hate Carpetbaggers

An example of simple Yankee carpetbagging. Saw an ad on Evanston Auto Classifieds of a Subaru the same year as mine. Price was good, I call, the lady says good, but now is backing out. Watch the price go up, as several others want it. I being in business as I am I fully understand supply and demand, but if you make a deal, even verbally should you not uphold that deal? It’s just another example of Yankee Carpetbagging and a Evanston switchback. Oh well at least I had a good birthday and birthday bash. I’m just feeling a buzz, and looking for my bed after the bathroom. Hope I can fetch a mop in the morning, since the floor is a bit messy.

As far as Evanston, I add it to the few but significant towns and areas that I’ll never reside in again, nor do business in again. You can’t trust these people. Guess the teachings at Church, of honoring agreements are not practiced. Don’t get me wrong I love the gospel, of our church, and all, but there are all too many that don’t apply the lessons of the teachings, beyond the meeting house.

Evanston will be one of a few that I’ll love seeing in my rearview mirror, not my windshield. I might have said that about Tweaker Flatts, but at least Tweaker Flatts has something to return to, Maybe I just forget about the Subaru, deal with it Tuesday. Don’t want to spoil my good birthday any more than its already been.

A great day but got my pants soiled a bit.

Yep today was my birthday, groovy, Nate took me to eat, the Bar B Que stack was really good. The Buffalo chips even better, all was okay then Kara walked in. Guess poverty or near so, and waiting for the Reaper to open took too long so, she against her principles went back to work there. I myself wouldn’t have done that since she told me of employer abuse and all, I even if I was having to get an EBT card would never go back to such a place, you get stung once don’t go back there. But some people will do the unthinkable for money. Guess she wasn’t the Dixie rebel type after all.

Quite a few after they thought about it, said Happy Birthday, but did it take a reminder? Birthday’s are the same, every year for most, some are totally ignored. For this wynged two wheeler, I miss home. At least there, even if it was one that had to be paid for, Charlie and/or Ricky would have arranged some female company for me this evening. So I get to stay home alone, but that condition is going to be solved this next month.

End of June this wynged two wheeled cowboy is going home to Idaho, and forget Evanston exists.

Saw this thing in my Email from Digital Trends of and about the best streaming service. Seems as both on demand media is sweeping the nation. Not only good for HazzardAyre, but also for many online radio and TV stations. Bad though for cable TV services. Pretty soon, cable companies will just be a way to hook up to the Internet. OTA TV is near its end of life, cycle.

My vote of the best streaming service? HULU, and HULU Plus. One is free, the other only $8.00 per month. The reason I like Hulu is they were the first at the batting plate, long before Netflix decided to stream rather than rent. Second, for the casual viewer Hulu still offers much of its content for free. I love FREE. Things or shows even if not popular in the states here, are available on Hulu, such as Fresh Meat.

Well enough for now, going to watch the news, take a long bath, and relax. Just wish somebody would have bought me cocktail, and maybe paid for a wife for the night.

Uncensored my butt

Next time you see a Facebook group or page that says they’re uncensored

Don’t buy it. Example, Saw this section posted about some page called Evanston Uncensored. So I bit, went on it, and thought I could unload, since too many others were doing the same. So I get up after checking my blood for the 5th time, and saw in my email, asking what my post was all about? I answered this Neil Cook . Says my post was removed. So I removed me from that page and group and as well as Evanston classifieds. Piss on em if they can’t take a bit of jousting. Damn lying Yankees anyway. They ain’t never said the truth and as its all too well turning out , never will.

Then Sunday morning got some call from somebody at 05:00 hours. At that hour the only words coming out of my phone better be; this is Sheriff’s Dispatch, have a tow on some highway . Past that, I treasure my sleep and rest periods.

Now that I’m done bitching, lets get into what is right here in Evanston, and trust me there ain’t much, remember this is Yankee country.

I am in one of if not the best church(LDS) Ward I have ever been in. My Bishop and Bishopric are some of the coolest crew and people I have ever met willing to help and truly doing what’s being preached and taught. They bailed HazzardAyre’s radio gear out from Woods Cross, and now are aiding me in getting LexiBelle down here. I have a family that has adopted me kind of in meetings although they never come to the Eagles Nest, but hey, one can at least hope the feelings in Church goes outside of the meeting house. But I have been blessed. I have made a few friends, here and have kept most of the ones I knew before here. Hope Nate remembers today is my Birthday.> So there is grounds for remaining on station for the next 4 or so months, but I’m still leaning on the idea of going home to Idaho.

Don’t just teach a class apply what you teach

It’s now official, as of 01:05 this old kountry canine was born, in Idaho. But has migrated to all parts of the Mountain West.

There was Sunday, maybe I’m barking too early here, and yes I know there are members of the ward that don’t know me, but outside of the Bishop and a few , dang few others who has tried to know me, outside of church? Like I said , dang few.

Yesterday I had mixed emotions, about going to church. There are only two reasons I did, one is obvious to renew my covenants with Jesus, the second to meet with the Bishop. By the time the congregation met for Priesthood, and we got into the lesson, the way I was ignored and treated, several times I felt like getting up and walking out of Priesthood class. The lesson was based on Elder Oaks’ talk a year ago , about respecting those who don’t always practice or see the world as we do, something on the idea, that is constantly taught in both the old and new testament of loving each other as we love ourselves and that includes forgiveness. One High Priest member brought up the idea of some family member they brought into their home that was bound and determined to live life on his own terms, but was seeking refuge in his home. The story went on about the thing of this is their home, respect it for that or split. I brought up the question or tried to anyway, about what was this old guy doing to make the younger man want to remain combative and against trying to absorb the church’s gospel and teachings. Was there a lack of compassion and understanding of that , the older man didn’t know. Maybe there was an underlying cause. Rather than let me bring something up, I was ignored and passed over for discussion, that was right on target for the lesson being taught. Prior to that, during Gospel Principles, I was encouraged to ask questions. Isn’t that what a class of teaching and learning is for? I think there are too many in our Ward that feel like an assignment whatever it is, is a Burdon, rather than a chance to please Heavenly Father and teach his word and lessons. I hear much the same thing from those asked to give a talk. Yesterday one young lady gave a talk that had me glued in my seat, it was really that good. Granted it was read from script, she wrote, but I was getting something out of it. Yet, another guy gave a talk, and although I tried, I never could get aboard his train of thought.

Of all the things I do, my most enjoyable of all is when I’m teaching God’s word, and really getting the idea across. Maybe it’s the fact that I don’t just believe in what’s in the scriptures, but that I know what’s in there is exact right to the quick. Maybe few have not been not only once but 3 times at Heaven’s doorway, guarded sternly by two US Marines, but that I have shook the hands of angels and been talked to by Heavenly Father and Jesus. I also remember I was one of those whom like the founding Prophet Joseph Smith, who asked which church, which religion is true. The situation was that it 1964, I was a mere 40 pounds, skin and bone, catching every kind of cold, flu there was. At the time from age 3 to age 6 my white corpuscles were outnumbered by the red ones. My internal thermostat was broke. I ran fevers quite often of 104 to 107, so I just prayed, and asked Heavenly Father to come to me, tell me I was to get better and is the Church I was going to the right one? It was like what I felt was several hours although it might have only been a few minutes, but there in the bedroom, was three images. Heavenly Father, Jesus, and an angel, telling me I would get better, that the church I was going to was the true one. There were other things, but I’ll not go into that now. On all occasions, it was by blessings and laying on of hands, and a miracle medicine called Gamma Goblin, that saved my life. Shortly after I started to eat, mostly Oreos, Milk, and peaches. Moms theory was , the milk and Oreos would put on weight, the peaches give me nutrition. To date, I can’t sleep without the three, which accounts for the pot belly.

Then there was the thing a few weeks ago, of me just wanting a little tyke behind me to be quiet for sacrament. Times have changed, back in the day, if me or my step brother Stephen Michael, would have fussed like that in Church or and especially sacrament, we would get this dirty smelly sock in our mouths and a paddling after we got home. Neither was to our liking so we shut up. Today can’t do that, child abuse, they call it, but in my day it was called discipline. I’m not trying to find fault here, but to me going to church, worshiping our Heavenly Father, is a privilege and pleasure, not a boring or something task. Granted some of the meetings these days are a bit longer. Before the church’s population membership number explosion, Church lasted all day. You got up a 07:30 went to Priesthood, then Sunday School, there was an hour or so break, to go eat dinner, then Sacrament meeting, the Bishop or Bishopric interviews then went home. Today Sunday school is limited to a 45 minute class, so is Priesthood, the big meeting is Sacrament meeting, Basicly a half day. Not bad, but young children need a break, they are so full of energy that sitting for an hour and a half, they are just going to fuss. But I’m getting off target, here. Church in all respects is for learning, you should be able to ask questions and seek answers. Those assigned to teach class’ should not just go over a lesson, but should absorb and apply it, if not in their homes, in th class they teach. Next time the things I’m thankful of from Church.

Restrictions are for squares and JAFO’S

There are way too many people that wear their churchiness on their arm or sleeve, or at least afraid to venture past what is safe, even if venturing past their own taboos. Consider this as an example; I put this ad on Evanston Classifieds a free classified page on Facebook, supported by some photography lady, which is good. Now if one puts up an ad for something really kinky, I can see ignoring or removing the ad. However guess what mine was neither. All I asked for was if some older but rather fashionable gal out there if they had maybe a bubble top from the 1960’s era, described in one of my last posts here. Next I asked if anybody had a old pair of white go-go boots. Guess what the ad was removed. Anything sound goofy or off camber here? No I have no intention to wear either one, but I wanted some to get our costume designers a sample of the wardrobe for the club’ bio movie. Hey a movie worked for Stern, a movie can work for HazzardAyre and the Knytes.

So I immediately put up a page for those that want to put things up that is a bit hinky, but worth selling. Or for that matter wearing. This is and the basic core of the Knytes, fight the system anywhere you find it, and not be limited by what your neighbors think. Let your spirit fly.

The term being square might be outdated, and if you need definitions to both the term JAFO, or WTF your either off on some desert hill side somewhere, or a very limited in your thinking. The slang term JAFO is defined in the movie Blue Thunder, WTF well I’ll let you all figure that out.

In Star Trek canon, The Federation’s simple but basic core foundation is based on what is called the Prime Directive. Seems as though that Prime Directive applies here where I reside.

I’m kicking back watching the Radio Disney Music Awards then hitting the rack.

But cruise by on the cyber highway on Facebook and find the page, Evanston Want Ads the want ad page that are not restricted.

I wanna go home, oh my I wanna go home

How do I open or create this entry, without it sounding like somebody mashing out sour grapes? Some times what we think is God’s inspiration is really the Devils influence. Consider what I have thought was God’s inspiration in coming to Evanston Wyoming might have really been the Devil coning me into something. In either case, I remember a rule of thought my mom used to tell me, “ If its such a great idea, how come someone else ain’t done it” In this case two others did and for the boom years here it did. There are two reasons that the current radio station here does little in the way of LIVE radio. One they can’t afford wages , and two there are damn few people able to go on air here, no matter the gender. See Drake Chennault didn’t do anyone any favors. It took a human being out of a radio studio. Took it to big production companies in NYC , HollyWood, and such places and soon all you needed was an occasional button pusher. No more true radio personalities. Someone who would segway between songs and music with quick on the fly responses, jokes, and tid bit news items. Few today even could cue a 45 rpm record. But I keep getting this small pings from Hazzard and surrounding area and I’m not really ignoring them. There are two rules of thought, move the rest of the towing service to Evanston, or better off might be , move me and my half of the towing service back to near or in Twin Falls or at least Hazzard. Remember Bliss Idaho? Has no tow service what so ever, and 30 miles each direction of very busy interstate 84. On the main haul to Boise. So I’m leaning very strong towards that rather than keep banging my head here in always cold and snowy Evanston Wyoming. Plus the idea of a lot warmer weather, and at least the club taking me to either of three places for my birthday, and helping take care of that strange Hawaiian dizzeeze , Lackanuki . Things need to get better by mid June or as planned, my butt moves home come July, I’m tired of chasing this rabbit.

Now dig this, to date outside of Nate my partner in business , club member and friend, nobody from our local LDS ward, the few that wanted me to get the club to fund their tattoo place and a bunch of others have even came by, to say Happy Birthday, Monday. None of them. So I’m leaning towards the concept of rather than bring LexiBelle to Evanston from Twin Falls, Idaho. Maybe I go to where LexiBelle is, and just admit, those there were right in the first place, that Evanston is a loosing concept. As far as the radio station? Looking at Montpelier Idaho, or Garden City Utah for that, No its not helping OTR truckers of I-80, but it might help, a bunch on U.S. 30 at least its Idaho.

Well hedding off to Church again, but it might be one of the last times I do it. Yes I’m thankful to my Uinta View Ward for getting my equipment back, but I’m thinking that it’d been much better if I’d have just put it all in storage in Bountiful somewhere. rather than haul it here to Evanston. There is no future here, the town is dying, and unless your ready to kiss certain tails, your not getting anywhere. This wolf don’t kiss no one’s tail.
