Welcome to a scared and reluctant nation. The way out is grit , determination and pulling your head out of your six




















If we watch TV or movies we are enthrawlled with the heros, that get it done no matter what. They give the bird to the establishment and fight the system. For Hazzard County people it was always Bo & Luke Duke with a mucho amount of assistance from Cooter, Daisy, and Uncle Jessie. For Airwolf fans it was String Hawk with a bunch of help from Dom, and Caitlan and quite a few others. But we have a great hero or two, and I'll get to us in a few bars here.
That hero is a man named Zeb Bell. I met Zeb first at a gig in 1977/78 somewhere. I was part timing at radio station KLIX, AM 1310 back when Charlie Tuma ran it. I was being a filler person, inside a big yellow chicken called the KLIX KLUCKER, Zeb was covering the same gig, put on by then KMVT called AGRI-ACTION. On my breaks I'd sit down with Zeb and churn over radio war stories. Later I got together with him at the JB's Big Boy where we supposed to have lunch. One of my radio crew and I attended. Wouldn't you know it , my damn check from cousin Bud was running late, so Zeb bought breakfast. Zeb was going to put something together with us, but Gina killed the thing, But thing is I admire Zeb, he always says it as it is without much fanfare, nor caring much what those who oppose him have to say about it. In 2012 it was pitched to me that HazzardAyre buy KBAR. Over several weeks we thought we had that in the bag. Thing is at the last minute Kim Lee , pulled that plug, but HazzardAyre Radio went on anyway. We put up our own tower, we went on the air from our own 100 watt FM and said we don't care. HazzardAyre has never backed down from a challenge or withdrew because of a road block. Maybe its the Marine do or die attitude we have as club members(Remember Luke Duke did service in the Marines at least in Dukes story lines) maybe its Hazzard County tenacity and attitude, and as it says at the end of the title song to the Dukes, Fighting the System. With that said, by now you can figure out that what we are, is not always what you might think of as a network , station, or program born in Southern Idaho. We're working to retransmit Zeb's show hereto northern Utah/Western Wyoming on HazzardAyre Radio.
Been fussing to get a couple of honey's from the Boise area for our websites cover pages, TV ad's and such. I am reminded of the words of Uncle Jessie Duke, when he told us, when your getting ready to fill your bucket with water , make sure what you think is water is not a mirage. As such I'm thinking that 80% of what someone says or does or offers on such social sites as Facebook is pure garbage and only 10 to 20 % real. I caught a bunch of suggested sites on Facebook a month ago, from what I saw as a big new crop of model/acting talent coming out of the Boise valley. What I'm finding is and this goes to a thought, just because some gal gets inked, does not mean they are radical or rebel, most are still very reserved and withdrawn. So for two or so weeks I've been calling , chatting and messaging these gals, only to find no calls. No results. What does one have to do? Go to Los Angeles, Nashville, Atlanta or Miami for model/screen talent? Sure Salt Lake City has one partly qualified agency, the rest there are part time, hardly paying anything, LDS centered agencies. So one talent says to contact another gal. So I did. Now I may be stupid on some things after all I was raised in Hazzard Idaho. But I know if this was being headed by a female or woman casting agent, the line would be so long that you'd be serving pizza slices to those waiting to be auditioned. Sure, Evanston Wyoming is probably not the first place one thinks of when casting a gig. But dig this Park City Utah  home of the Sundance Film Festival is 45 miles away from us. Salt Lake City is a mere 80 miles away, One would think that with a model/acting contract on the line of $350k that's $350,000.00 that you'd get a return phone call. The $350K is not just for the promotion of the online side of our radio/TV operation, mid 2017 it is planned to do a full length motion picture of the history and legacy of the Hazzard Knytes/Knytes(Knights) of Dixie. There is big things planned here, but for some unknown reason, talent is reluctant. Okay then, it is an election season. The candidates are all but organized. It's more finger shaking and BIG Shafts contests. Most anyone is looking at being reluctant to doing anything until after the elections are over. I have always said, that you can't move forward until you are willing to step forward. HazzardAyre by its founding in southern culture , is always and I say it again, hell bound on voting confederate at all times. It is that when I hear Zeb play our nations primary anthem, I'm always put off that he wont play the southern Anthem as well. Outside the station and my shop, as well as in my home, I proudly fly that Dixie flag. I'm proud of her, and know that , that flag is the saving grace of this nation. Confederate's seldom retreat, we did it 150 years ago, and yet, this nation has continued to become corrupt ever since. Had Jefferson Davis won, along with Robert E, this nation might not be in the tar pits it is now. Here in the Knytes-of-Dixie, the owners of HazzardAyre Radio, do not do what we do for the money, we do it for the cause of raising the south, and proclaming the legacy of well, Dixie. Now if the model talent and all will just get on board.

Win some, loose some, no harm , no foul

Ya win some and you loose some, it's the nature of life. Lexi said no, due to a conflict with her guy pal, not keen on her hanging with a bunch of rebel southern bikers and gearheads, so we lost there. However my thought is simple here, once she sees the club meeting at the Legal, and other none resident model gals there , I'd be willing to wager a full tank of diesel , she'd break loose. It was the same thing with Tammy, she poo-pooed us for a many months, once a few hotties showed up at the Lotty's, it was , hey no body is stealing her thunder and she was up for it. The rest there is history.
Okay then got news on The Reaper Club today. It can be had for $250k, so we see what bubbles. Although I'm excited , the reality of , if you have to import everything else from Idaho and Utah, might this gig play better there? So I'm being a bit gun shy on things. Let ya'll know. The fact is HazzardAyre Radio can move just about anywhere there's broadband Internet, since it is at its core a online station. Pocatello is looking good.
Last but not least, getting things patched with Shelly, I got to thinking the other night after church, that hey, I'm not getting younger, I'm not Mr. GQ, and Shelly might just be the best I get, so why not see where it goes. Still haven't heard squat from that Drag strip board, so that's another concern. 
Been a long day, finally got oil for the General JaXson, Shelly came out in a taxi, with some, went up to the Legal, where Lexi gave me the bad news, oh well, like I said, Win some loose some, its normal, once upon a time this would piss me off, these days it'd be more of a shock if a model, much less an on air radio talent showed up, that did the task we ask, and do it right the first time, but as a model agency owner told me once, as big as both Boise and Salt Lake City is, it ain't Los Angeles, Nashville or Atlanta. It's low grade talent at best and you get lack luster results. There is another thing that was once said, You can't progress, if you keep doing the same things the same ways. 
Tried to call that Armada talent agency today. As usual, got only a no answer, leave a message, my thoughts? Either a gone by night agency part fraud, or they too, no matter if they do, do, tattooed gals, they might not be hip to having their sweet honey's hanging around a bunch of southern fried gearheads and or pilots. I'm holding out for two an Ally, and an Alexandra from up Boise way, but one thing that remains solid, that is HazzardAyre(air) Radio.

Now Page Two why models and such for a radio station?

I have been asked and at times chastized over the need to find , recruit and employ female models and talent for things HazzardAyre as well as the club. This all started back in 1974, when I got a sponsor for a race car from Dittos Jeans, through a department store called Pedersons , now known as Pederson's Ski And Sports. It was agreed that if they gave me money for racing, I'd supply the female model talent at the events I raced at wearing Dittos jeans. So I did, then it was 1980 that the roots of things Hazzard was taking hold, with a shop named the Hazzard County Garage, and maintaining continuity of the show on the shops TV ads, you should have a Daisy. Which is what started the interest in legs in nylons and such since networks and stations at the time made it a rule due to network censors that you could NOT have bare legs, on TV. So enter in the nylons. The first ad we produced was where at the end of the ad, I would kiss the models toes, playing on two words TOW and TOE, in that we luv(love) Toews. Putting the two words together. But that was my shop part of the story. As far as the club was concerned we were in the mindset that where hot girls and women were, there be guys into hot rods and customs and thus recruit members into the club. As far as the AyreWolvez were concerned the concept of models on TV or in print stems from, the concept of the nose art or pin up girls that were on military aircraft. It goes though even further, if your going to do up a TV ad, or a website, you really want something with sizzle. Not just a generic page that might or MIGHT not get seen or viewed. How do you do that, put a hot gal with or without tatts, by a ride, bike, truck or aircraft, in a short skirt . Have her read copy and you have an ad that most genuine male corpuscles will read , view and buy from. Now as far as the on air part.
That I got tuning into an old over the road truckers show that aired on KOB 77 out of New Mexico, called Joc Radio. They had weather and road spotters that would call in, which evolved into having in studio on air talent female of course, as male truckers loved to hear a velvety female voice as they moved freight, late at night. Of course later on there was a OTR drivers show called Interstate Trucker RAdio, which we as a organization bought in 1986. Which turned into Dixie Diesel Trucker Radio. A part of still HazzardAyre. Any mile, ITR had women co anchors or hosts, and again drivers really tuned in. It wasn't though until I caught on air at first then later his movie, Howard Stern , had Robin Quivers, who was his female second seat. I could go on here, but that's the way and reason we still today scout for and hire model and on air talent of hot looking gals.

If you don't tell lies about me , I wont tell the truth about you

Good morning friends it is Monday morning and I am in good spirits, just letting my pants dry so I can get dressed and get this day going. Seems though some days you can't get it into second even if you double clutch it. 
Saw a bunch of garbage on a former FaceBook group i subscribed to. The group was supposed to be for those who haul cattle and livestock, which I do part time, yes one of many things I do to keep food on my table. What I rapidly found was a bunch of posts that are, not were , but are porn or porn related. With very little to do with bull hauling. Or trucking. So I did what one should do when faced with such things, I unsubscribed. Now I need to interject this , because it has changed my way of thinking. Years ago, seeing something sexually related was a hey great they're breaking the great barrier, today, after going to Church, the love of one family to me who belong to the church and serve our Ward, our Bishop, who I think could nearly walk on water, I see things so much differently. Sure I love tastefully done pics and photos of women with trucks, bikes, aircraft and so on, but when it has to do with outright exhibitions of body parts, except for legs, and such, I must turn away. I also don't like sexually related discussions of things crude. There is a vast gap, between the discussion, of relationships and such topics, and just being trashy. The trashy side, I'm no longer into, and the attitude of both the Knytes as well as the AyreWolvez is equal. For example, this is permissable 
 This is not 
 If that is what your into, your not into things Hazzard County and should just pass us on bye. This is what we call sexy 
 This is not 
 Okay then let's move on here. Turned on RFDTV, this morning after going through all too many news or what I call tabloid news networks. All talking about Trump, and Clinton and so on. Bullsbreath. This election season has been roughly volatile to say the least. Quite frankly, I wouldn't vote for any of these clowns. It's a Presidential run based on stardom rather than correcting the ills that challenge this nation. So as I watched RFDTV , and seeing the plugs for writing the FCC to preserve that channel, I look at the related emails, I wrote even going all the way back to 2009 when the Knytes and I wanted to air membership recruiting and company ads on RFDTV. We were shut down, flat with comments relating to our exploiting of women, yet they air, HeeHaw. Not saying anything bad against HeeHaw, I still say that a new version of HeeHaw could be done today. New scripts, new story lines, yet RFDTV said no. Well how many times over the last 6 years, have you heard that RFDTV has been dropped from cable systems, and stations, like KBAX out of Twin Falls Idaho, to now being given the boot completely? Maybe the CEO of RFDTV might want to give us a call and join not fight the Knytes.  Now this on that; RFDTV says they are on air 24/7/365 for rural America, they ain't. RFDTV shuts off at 01:00 (1:00AM) and runs infomercials all night. Who is on 24/7/365? HazzardAyre Radio and Dixie-Nation TV. Finally I want to close with this. I get all too many people that tell me that there is no place called Hazzard Idaho, well my friends, here's Hazzard Idaho's main street 
 Welcome to Hazzard Idaho the way America was and longs to be, today. HazzardAyre on air this afternoon.

OOps Yahoo is having a headache and throwing up

If you got up this morning and went to Yahoo.com and tried to get to your FRee Yahoo mail, you might have found it did not work , as Bro would say fidn'tdidn't as I tried, that but to no avail. Yahoo has been having a bunch of problems here lately, both from a tech problem, to administrative including financial problems. The company is being sold off by the way in chunks, supposedly to shore up major cash, and beef up its core business's one being its free email piece. The problem is Yahoo, hasn't kept up very well on its core business, or even returning phone calls for ad buyers. So it means, that most of if not all of what the club has on Yahoo, will have to be taken off and as a club scrub using Yahoo. 
Went out to Nate's last night , looked at the freshly painted truck he did up for his lady, great job, some extras I would have added to a moderate custom , would have been side pipes along the bottom of both the bed not stacks , more like lake pipes, and a strip or two of chicken lights, along with some silver fade to white ghost flames, but overall a great job. Coming back just a 1/4 mile from Nate's shop is our shop , having a coughing fit, nearly flew by our shop. 
Of course never made it back here to the Wolf's Lair in time to do up this mornings show on HazzardAyre(www.livestream.com/hazzardayre , but will give it a go this midnight, as I have a bunch of production to do yet. Which brings me to the simple things that I have been writing about for the last month and a half. For HazzardAyre Radio and all its offsprings to operate on a timely manner and on schedule, there has to be more than just me doing the heavy lifting. Sure in years gone by there were those that did the muscle as well as light duty here, but most of the clubs are overseas doing aviation duties in the Marines and Navy, so I'm here keeping the home fires burning, trouble is those fires are turning into small glowing coals. I have gotten so many promises from various people that want to step in or asked to step in to do various programming and producing here. Trouble is there, they find the many hours it takes, and they decide its not their piece of cake. Which is why I'm busting balls to get Lexi or someone like her(there is no one like her , here in Evanston, she's too purrfect) to join our 
 to write copy, produce segments as well as host and co-host co anchor shows here. If I got at least 6 in the team, I could qualify the club to invest in moving this out of the Wolf's Lair to an office/studio, as it is, that would be a waste of time. Which brings me to the opinion of most of the club, if there are the human resources in either Boise, Idaho Falls, Idaho and/or Salt Lake City Utah, would it be more of an advantage, to move the radio gig there, sell the license in Evanston, Wyoming and be done with it? More on that in the afternoon edition, but I have talked to many people, two who said they wanted to jump in, in fact had breakfast one morning with one, yet neither has come to the Wolf's Lair, to do any mock up shows, let alone anything live. These same people will jump up in time as other people from our small community become involved, we are making progress, but it takes so much out of me, that I do wonder, would heading to Utah or Idaho's capitol cities make more sense, more over make more dollars?
So If you woke up to Yahoo.com and couldn't fetch your mail you were not alone. Let ya'll know when and if it gets fixed.

Took the day off and went on a one horse quarter horse to hunt for treasure

Some times its great to turn down the flames a bit and go back to an era of backwoods trails, and no people. Few places offer that any more especially with cell phones and wifi, but Saturday I shed that lead and went up into the hills surrounding the small Wyoming town of Afton Wyoming. The goal was to see if we could find that buried treasure of that gold that was stolen in the mid 19th Century by Butch Cassidy and the Sundance kid from Montpelier Idaho. Legend has it where the two outlaws robbed what is now the Wells Fargo Bank there and in the get away buried their loot in a big box between Montpelier Idaho and Afton Wyoming in a small hidden canyon. The haul was valued then in the area of $500k of Gold coins, who knows what it's worth today. It wasn't so much of finding that , but the adventure in the attempt. So at 07:00 Hours, 2nd cousin Brady, came over, grabbed me out of bed, and over to Montpelier we went. Got there at the Bear Lake County Fairgrounds and mounted horses. First of all I haven't been horseback in years but I adapted well. We had lunch in that back country, at 13:00 hours, and just rode most of the day. I was able to unwind from weeks and months of tension and stress. Got back here at 20:00 hours , unloaded my bowels, and just getting ready to go take a bath. Head for bed, and be ready for church in the morning. 
It was a great day, a bit on the cold side weather wise but it was nice to just be out amongst nature and Heavenly Father. I also saw a bunch of economic improvement in and around Montpelier, and surrounding area. Did make me start thinking. When I got home and turned on my Cell phone, I saw that Dave and Nate called, but figured they had better things to do that hear from me , so decided not to call. Monday I'll call the Real Estate lady, on the bars, and take care of that, plus shift a few things around, to spend more time at the shop and reduce time spent on the radio gig, one is easier than the other. The shop and LexiBelle will make me money, the latter will too, but that takes more human resources than I think is available here in Evanston. What I have found is, maybe one even 3 people that could with little instruction come into a studio, sit down and do a full hour or so of a radio show. More over few that want to be an engineer on the project, where even Montpelier has 10 people that can step in to do that, causes one to give the entire situation a bunch of thought. Any mile , I wont be on air as promised since my body needs sleep. I'll be on Sunday afternoon after church. 
All in all it was a fantastic day, something I need to do more, not less.

Together and yet so far, but still hanging in there praying for an answer.

It's Monday morning, FoX 13 news weather guy said its going to snow again so it'll be greasy out there.
Last night into early morning was something that had to be felt to gain a grip on. See I started working on some photo research photos for the show that will kick off the new season of HazzardAYre Radio in another week. And in so doing started watching the Women's segment of LDS Conference. I tried to get my lady to come and sit down and watch it with me, but she didn't care to . Most of the night prior I was watching the stage version of Grease Live, which in my opinion was poorly done. Oh the script was adhered to okay, most of the musical numbers were by the book, but with the attempt to mix in some ethnic racial elements and all it just did not have the zing that the film had. The race at the near end was all to fake and phony. Not the best effort, but hey they tried. I started hatching an idea of doing the thing a bit more spicy and a bit more racy than what I had seen, in hopes of combining that into the film that is both a drama film as well as a docudrama of the formation of The Hazzard Knytes and how we finally came together as the powerful organization we are today. Going all the way back to the point at Mrs. Jacobsen's Cub Scout troop pack 303 of Layton Utah when we customized our Hot Wheels cars to our bycicles to our powered mini bikes and so on. Through the TTA(TeenAge Truckers Association 4-H Truckers Club) through the RoadMasters all the way to that fateful day at the Polish Palace in Hagerman-aka- Hazzard Idaho when we formed the club. The reason simply is the story needs to be told and two Kurt Sutter is working on two projects, one a movie version of the Son's and a TV run of pre Son's as the First-9 . Every part of the Hazzard Knytes from the start of the Radio station to our shops to the start of our brother organization the AyreWolvez, all of it will be in the film. It's a huge task, and getting everything in place, the right people cast for the club members, the girls we knew, the music all of it. We'll be filming about the time the Son's movie starts showing late this year. So then with Mama SexyWolf off in her la-la land, and not thinking of what it takes to be my SheWolf, being converted to the LDS Church and all, which is a must. I'm not marrying this time out of lust or simple companionship. This marriage if it happens at all is for keeps for here on Earth and in eternity, I don't think she completely understands what that means. So then I started watching the movie the Hollywood Knights, which of course is part of the foundation for the Hazzard Knytes(Knights) , and she wanted no part of that. It's like we are residing together , not living together, and it has me wondering should I take both a financial , as well as emotional hit, and send her back to Florida? I began wondering this even more this past Saturday. With fetching food from Wally's Burgers, and wanting some sodas to go with it I stopped into one of the Maverick stores here. There's a new gal that started working there, that I just can't stop thinking about. This young honey barely scratching if she is at all of 22 maybe 23 has more in common and more chemistry with me and what I want in someone to cast into our movie, than just about anyone I have seen in a many moons. Lady SexyWolf needs to know and I've tried to be very kind in telling her this, but unless she gets her act together, and or if this Brit gal at the Maverick store showed any kind of personal feelings for me beyond being a feature talent for the film or club, Brit has me in a Hazzard County second. 
The way I look at it right now, is this; there is a week now until the next go round for money coming into the Lair, if SexyWolf don't get it together and shows a bit more attention and interest in me and my world, and gets off Facebook and out of her little phone world and looks at mine, she's outta here. I'd rather live alone and be allowed the freedom to explore those women who compliments me and my life, rather than reside or try to live with someone that makes feel alone anyway. Any way. Lets look at some more here. It wasn't being under the cloud of coughing and suppression of that backwashed snot in my throat that kept me from going to church this Easter Sunday, heck I forgot it was Easter. Nope it was another flip out fight with Shelly. It seems that's just about all we have been doing since she got here. God teaches we should try to be of service to those not too tightly wrapped or who don't have our abilities or blessings. In my life it's Shelly. She got bonked on the head, quite severely as a youth as well as just a few years ago, much prior abuse and mental trauma and while not retarded still not too much ahead of that and quite developementaly challenged. The fact that I rescued her from her Aunt & Uncles back yard essentially off the street and brought her out here, was not enough. Yet outside of just after the first few days, even a week , its been fight and disagreement after another. Beyond the fact that I'm keeping my carnal needs in check much of that having to do with superficial eye candy, and not much desire, there is no emotional, or real love bond. I wanted her to go see the Bishop here to discuss this, but although she only partly agreed, still her heart is not into it. As many of you can understand here, this is not a situation that is sustainable, for the long haul, unless something steps in here. I think it'll end up with her going back to Florida a week from now, if she does stay it'll be through the Bishop, and the Church finding employment at WalMart, and living elsewhere. But there's still a week to decide.
AnyWay much to do today, need to catch some sleep.
