They heard the Wolf's Howl

They heard the Wolf's howl. Remember the outfit in Tennessee that was doing up Dixie Towing as a sub title of their web site etc. ? Well the cheef cheeze of Dixie Industries there called me this afternoon to appologize that they had inadvetantly used Dixie Towing as a sub title for their web site, and all. Plus they were taking measures to correct the problem. So since they goofed I'm going to inform them that their goof cost us $1,000.00 and we expect a check in the mail. Whether or not we really get it remains the big ? But they just might. See I'm very careful to make dang sure that before I stick my nose into something business or web site biz etc, that I check as many search engines as I can before I launch something. Now it may take a eon for it to get noticed but look at how much money, lost sleep and deep scrambling to set something else up, that did not have to be revamped in the first place. They owe that to us, and I hope as an industry supplier they pay us back the $1,000.00 they cost us. We see, but to conclude here; Dixie Towing is back to be going towing in western Idaho.

Getting the rubber to the road

Now that there is going to be some solid earth under my britches its time that things at least for the UAITA gets put into gear. Media presence is not only needed but required. That being said, my first mission in life is to get me going towing again. That means finishing the cosmetic and mechanical improvements on all 3 of the trucks I own, LiL Lexi, Lexi herself and Big Mama. That requires shop space which is in limited supply here in GF, not impossible just not that much of it. Sure I still have the shop in Rupert and all that, but with fuel prices and all going down there all the time while for the short haul will be, the long haul wont make it. I saw some spaces in both Bliss as well as Hazzard, so that will be that when I find I begin that grind. That being put down on the pavement, there will be about six months or so that I will have some spare time. The first thing that needs to be done is establishing a really good web site. Now the streaming service we as a group looked at once , now is not that far of a drive, so that is the first mile on this long road. Once that is going  streaming IP Radio thing needs to be done. While for a very short while that can be done at the new Wolf's Den and all with gear from both Radio Shack and some high end stuff, including a new computer with all the proper software. However the big gun is the over the air station. We have teasing that ever since we as a group shut down the station over yonder in Hazzard in 1985. Our original idea for call letters are still available, and from doing a bunch of looking on the Internet from consol to transmitter is while expensive not an unreachable fruit. But before that happens, first a FCC, Construction Permit needs to be applied for and granted. That will take time, but the FCC does not grant CP's as they are called to areas without a good allocation. In our part of the world there are two really good ones. One is right here near GF, over in Hammett. The other is down near American Falls at Raft River, going to eastern Idaho is not an option at least for me and for quite sometime, I don't even want to think anything Eastern Idaho. So that leaves Hammett. Another allocation is near Buhl here in western Idaho so I am going to consult our attorneys and all to get that paper work going. Between now and then, the streaming station will allow us to perfect the format and programing for the over the air station. As said until such time as there becomes a need for outside on air talent, the streaming station can run into the pipeline from my new house at least new to me, its really not a new house, but ya'll git the idea. Once all that is complete we really need to establish an organizational HQ. Up to now the HQ has been split between where I live and at whoever's in the seat of Prezz of the group. Which does not allow for a full time staff etc to manage the affairs of those who join our organization for us to manage those affairs. Once the HQ is established, the web site up and running at warp speed, and all that then, and only then should we try to snag help or input from outside media that includes recruiting female model talent etc. As far as that is concerned. Boise has about 4 fair talent agencies. So for once we can hire out of there not the way we did in both Utah, Wyoming and of course Pocatello. Looking back if we had not stuck our tent in the wind in Pocatello looking for talent etc there perhaps the bad feelings that came about there, might not have came about. We also need to start beating the bushes looking for sponsors. There is just so much money in the pot and that is about done for. Between the losses in Utah and Wyoming there is not a heap amount to do much more than what I have outlined herein. I talked with the bean counter Kelly, on the IP last night , after I could not sleep, because could not go to the crapper very well, so I did some last bit work, to let some of ya'll know wuzz up. Kelly sezz there is enuff in the pot to do the website, and later the HQ that's all. No Dixie Diesel Nationals etc this year. Finally for the Road Resque bunch. I'm going to give a double L, to Cactus Pete's in Jackpot next week to book our fall get-it-together. As far as the UAITA, I think that will go down in Boise, but Less has yet to let me know where, will report on where that is when I know. Both Less and Kelly told me that most likely be a New Years or Valentines Day thing, combined with a think tank meeting. Now to bring this to a close, so I can get in the head and try to snag some sleep so I can finish my move, could use some help by the way, but to close this. My double L will be down in about a week. The reason is simple, I just did not have $'s to pay that and finish the move, but will Git-R-Done 10-01. But will have email and Inet so get in touch with me that way. More next week after I get this all straightened out. Keep it tween the ditches.

My what a few miles makes.

 

So there I was trucking over I-86 the sub highway that runs from just outside of Burley to connect to I-15 at Pocatello. Seemz as though LiL Lexi did not want to return to Pocatello so I could fetch more of my stuff in the relocation project from Pocatello to Glenn's Ferry. As I just got past the split of I-84/I-86 that near bald tire blew, just short of the old Raft River Store. Now what made this worse is that one damn ass lug nut was galled so bad that it was not coming off with just a lug wrench. This was going to take an air impact. So I made a call to Commercial Tire, of Burley. In about an hour waiting and watching some black bug try to stay on a twig here came the tire guy. His name was Jesus. No kidding. Not only did Jesus fix the tire fix the lug stud and all, but too let me go on my word for payment. A $250.00 bill by the way. Would anyone in the tire bizz in Pocatello do that ? Somehow I do not think so. Was it because good old Southern Steele Xpress and all is known better in Burley, a company two buttheads in Pocatello sezz don't exist, but does. Was it the kindness of someone in a real fix? Or is it that Pocatello is so money hungry? Or a combination of all of that? In my opinion its the last one. Yet in Rupert I rent a shop, for $200.00 a month that includes electricity, and yet can't find one nearly that cheap in Pocatello. I did see some things here recently that once again started me second thinking again but after today, I'm more intent on setting my tent in the wind and getting my behind out of here. Okay nuff Pocatello bashing. I saw several opportunities in Bliss. The old Oxbow Cafe there closed up, boarded up, ye ole RoadRunner Texaco Truck Stop dead on its feet, and trucking down through Hazzard stopped at Larry & Mary's Cafe there and saw that up for sale, as well as two possible shop locations. With Glenn's Ferry only a mere 25 to 30 miles shy of Hazzard this does make my dream of reigniting thins there much stronger. Maybe Hazzard truly needs me. God hazz weird wayz of telling us to do things, I'm getting the idea this was my time to rediscover Hazzard County. Well need sleep big day in the AM so will catch all in the PM, good numbers to ya'll keep it tween the ditches.

Proposed 4 day work week, my what a lazy nation no wonder so many are broke

Dig this gear splitters, the Federal Government is about to enact rules on getting folks to work less. Utah is looking at it and the states of California and Idaho are considering it . What I'm ratchet jawing about is a 4 day per week work week. What we don't have enuff dayz to just sit on our butts? As it is the mail is slower than a 9 year itch, never gets to you on time and expect either killing off Saturday or Friday delivery much less processing the United States Mail, YOUR snail ,mail. Okay then this nation is under a big time gun of bad economics, much less high energy costs. Farm prices while stable are starting to show some downsides. Corn is selling for a bit less, the ethanol bubble is near to bust. Oh don't say its over as alternative energy is important, but distribution is not coast to coast. Which means doing some late night thinking. But to even think these things out now they want one less day to do it. What's next? Instead of working harder and more , we as a nation are looking to taking a day off. Good to know our farming , trucking and yes us going towing are still going to be hard at it 7 days a week 365 days a year and in many cases 24 hours a day. But I ask how can our people expect to make money when ya'll don't want to work. Ya'll got to work to make money. Plus if your like me, if ya'll get SSA money, you can't work, or ya'll get docked SSA money or just flat get the boot from getting any SSA money, can we get any lazier? It's bad enuff that the mail. is so slow that it'd be easier to truck to Utah to get my wages than waiting for it in the mail. Now the nation wants to take another day off. The purpose as it has been said is to save money and fuel by not going to work. There is even talk about a resurgence of work at home jobs. Tele-commuting as its called. Ever tried hiring people to come to your pad to help work? Especially if the task you need done is best done by a lady? No I'm not talking about sleazy crap I'm talking doing secretarial work. Yet if you just happen to snag an applicant you risk your butt if she comes into your home. Just one slip of the mouth and your ass is in the cross bar motel or worse. Yet even with that everybody wants an extra day off. America get off your butts if ya'll want to get on yer feet. My opinion I could be wrong.

Online was offline Saturday

Yesterday was one of those dayz I'd like to completely forget. Seemz as though once again the Internet at least on my end took a healthy dump. Could not get fully on line no matter how I trued. Now then had to swallow some pride and go over yonder to Galaxy Computers. Saw the guy who ran the place and on Monday will take my computer over to get it checked over and fixed. But when I asked Saed if I could use a loaner was told no, they did not have one. No granted working on a $1,000.00 is not like rebuilding a $ 50,000.00 truck, but if your in business and one of your tools is your computer the guy that is if they want repeat business will give you a loaner, knowing that you make your living with that computer, just like I do when I'm doing up a classic big truck. I always make a loaner truck available since I know the only way that trucker is earning is if his wheels are turning. Same goes for farmers and ranchers. John Deere dealers know that if a crop is ready to come out of the field, then you lend that farmer a loaner combine or tractor. This assures you , your going to get paid and makes for a better relationship all around. Don't you wish every business thought this way. By the way to Computer Doc and Computer Warehouse, thanks but no thanks. Talk at ya'll later

When one dares to dance to a different band

Madonna, Howard Stern, WolfMan Jack, and ye ole AyreWolf here. All of us dedicated and still do to being different, willing to march to a different drummer or dance to a different band. All of us stepped into media. One to punk or rock music, the rest behind the mic on radio. Some went in front of the camera on TV although one of us(me) never really wanted to be a TV star just to put a dent for many who are forgotten. Mostly those of us trucking or going towing. Then there is WolfMan Jack, who pioneered edgy radio and one who defined edgy radio, Howard Stern. But in years gone by that was acceptable, today not so acceptable. Isn't it good that many inventions were proven years ago and advancements made years ago rather than today. Since in our modern nation innovation trying to build a dream or do what others say impossible, is not any longer tolerated or welcomed. Doing something out of the acceptable box today labels YOU a terrorist or worse. From the telephone to the personal Computer or PC, today would never get off the ground. Since all too many would say can't be done, your dreaming grandioso ideas. Not say thank you for trying to get something useful into my home or something that allows greater productivity. Madonna turns 50 today, 9 months before I do. Imagine that. Stern is still on the air albeit over satellite and WolfMan Jack, well somehow I think his spirit will be with us all. Just because I pulled the plug and will not be on Pocatello's cable channel 12, does not mean I will not be on TV. Nor radio. But like many celebrities and just those common Joe's who do radio shows I'm taking time off from being on the airwaves. Boise will be the first port of me getting back on TV, likewise KTOW/KDXC will be us in Glenn's Ferry by bout this time next year being the ears and mouthpiece of those trying to make a buck driving and owning a truck, likewise going towing. Things Hazzard County have not been shot in the head as far as I am concerned but, or me I'm putting that aspect of my life on the rear shelf, stripping much of the outside off and going towing like and with what I started, hence Highway Hooker Towing/ Dixie-Eagle Truck & Tractor Service. While I never got the chance to get someone to step in the seat I occupied at CH-12 in Pocatello, after all who the heck wants that grief? What needs finished there can be done from a distance. As the cooler weather creeps in,  I see what and where I need to get in gear here, more over when it begins snowing I plan to be going towing, past that I really do not care. But Pity the Fool if he or she wants to be different these days. As you'll be called a liar, or worse. Rather than gave a hardy thank you for trying. As I look back on my time in Pocatello, I ought to be given a refund for my attempt at helping Pocatello move into the 21st century, but then again sometimes the big bird wants to keep its head in the hole in the sand. Stay Truckin.

Saved by the Bell or at least one hell of a lot of phone calls

After much consideration and thought I was able to save the rental in Glenn's Ferry Idaho. Which means repeating the efforts I started last week this time in getting my six out of Pocatello. Which in many ways will not only be good for me but you as members of the Hazzard County Knytes. Bottom line while not exactly moving home to Hazzard its purtty close and that means in a few months a bunch of things will begin to thaw out for real. As I awoke this morning still in Pocatello and after breakfast at McDonalds which any more is just as good as going any where else for grub in the morning I noticed that its getting cooler outside. The east to west winds while not real bad are blowing signaling an early winter. It will be a cold one for sure. At least I'll have the satisfaction of knowing while I know it snows in GF and all it'll be a bunch warmer. I'll also have the pleasure of knowing when it begins snowing , I'll be out towing and that means more green in my jeans. I watched from my shack here in Pocatello the Pocatello city council meeting on CH-11 here and saw that most that came for the public hearings on a bunch of issues were not going away satisfied with the politically correct answers gave by members of Pocatello's City Council including its mayor Roger Chase. The fact is that come re-election time Chas is going to have an uphill battle. So will many members of the current city council. There was once I had visions of running for office here, but the fact is I'm out of here and will enjoy watching Pocatello drown in is arrogance and ignorance. While I am leaving without the ole General and all , fact is I can build another one, in better condition and with a heap more Stuggots than the one I lost here. After all nothing is impossible in Hazzard County. Any mile have a bunch of packing to do see ya'll on the other side.

She's no relation but sure wish she was, looking into ancestors.

When I was younger my Mom used to spoof me by telling me that Elizabeth Montgomery the star of yesterdays TV series Bewitched was related to me. The idea that Moms first name is Eudora, and the on screen mom of Elizabeth or Smantha Stevens the character that Elizabeth played's mom was named Endora was somehow believable. Although later in life Mom explained it was all in fun. Later in Life however the male star on the show did die of he same lung disease Mom did so there might have been a bewitching coincidence. Okay then but the history of my names sake rolls from Alabama to New York and all the way to Ireland where my grandparents on my Dad's side of my family came from. Our families history is always one of those interesting parts of life's search quests. It can become very interesting to learn things of our families that we never knew. From the time I was merely 6 years old although somehow I knew I had them but never had the fact made valid until one day when defending myself from a bully at school, that the same kid I was fighting told me I had a brother whom was MIA. In Vietnam. I brought up the subject with Mom and Dad at dinner that night and it would be several days until they told me the real story. Could that be why Mom And Dad spoiled me so much and opened so many doors or at least as many doors for me to explore that they did? Who knows, but for years I have been searching for information on that just if for no other reason to satisfy the question in my mind. Any time I see the last name Montgomery anywhere I begin to search, to see if perhaps there is a connection between my family or me and someone else. Like Poppy Montgomery one of the stars of TNT's series Without a trace. She is great looking of course, and while she no doubt is no relation does make you wonder if she is. One famous or not depending on your view was the person who played the on TV DJ at Boss Hogg's radio station on the TV series Dukes-of-Hazzard. I found out during my close relationship with the entire cast and producers of that show that TV star Richie Montgomery is a relation of mine. Richie is he son of one of my Uncles, on my Dads side. That's all I'll say about that, but sometimes its neat to trace ones heritage. Some times the connection can open doors one never thought. Richie's character is strange somehow in that in life I do radio for all things Hazzard, and on TV Richie did radio for things Hazzard. Keep it tween the ditches.

       

The History of the Rode Knytes Association

The history of the Rode Knytes Association goes back to the very foundation of all that came after including the Hazzard County Knytes Kustmz Association. In 1968 a bunch of youth who belonged to Pack 303 Layton Utah of the Cub Scouts yes I was one of them, collected and customized mini diecast cars and trucks. So in a year or so later a bunch of us got together and started what was called the Hot Wheels Customz Club. Where we would meet and show off our miniature hot rods. In 1970 my Dad bought me my first motor bike, a Suzuki MT-50 J Trail-Hopper. The dealer who sold it to my dad the owner of that dealership's son Correy Hansen John Muir, Brad Lee, Kent Jcobson and I started a mini bike group. As we grew up so did our rides. In 1974 after my parents and I moved to Idaho, the idea of a grass roots hot rod group, was put together under the banner of the Street Commanders Club. The words Street Commanders came from the name gave as a model name to a truck built by White Motor Company, called the Road Commander. In 1975 the work began to build the nations first youth based long haul over the road truckers 4-H club. The 4-H clubs foundation was based on both the 4-H Wheels Program and the 4-H Tractor safety program mixed together. In 1976 the TeenAge Truckers Association was born. The organization was modeled after the Independent Truckers Association founded by the creator of the magazine Overdrive.  In early 1978 the TTA was renamed since many of us were no longer teenagers into the Diesel Truckers Association where it lived quite well, until I discovered all things Hazzard County. As the Hazzard County Knytes grew it seemed to me that our core group and why we were together to begin with, so in 2004 the idea of reigniting the core group was brought up with some of the original members of the Street Commanders Club, namely Correy Hansen, Myself, John Muir and Sam Beeson. We met at Waganers in Roy Utah and after a few too many sodas, onion rings and a few burgers, the concept of the Rode Knytes Association was formed. Now came the hard part, what to call it? Where to base it? And how to recruit new membership? We knew that to attract membership we needed to spin up a national group. Now most of us were members of the Owner Operator Independent Truckers Association or OOIDA, and as well most of us were more into going towing rather than going trucking. So the concept of basing he group as a towing trade group was the basics. Still what to call it. One evening some of us were at my home in Bountiful Utah sitting on the sofa, and floor watching the original Blue Collar Comedy special with Larry the Cable Guy, and so on. The bar on the show was called the Rode House. So one of our friends said well we are the adult version of the Hazzard County Knytes(knights) we are the true knights of the road and thus in 2005 the Rode Knytes Association was born and certified, as the nations number 3 towing trade group. But long haul OTR truckers thought what we were doing was keen as well. So some of them got together with us and in 2006 the national group was formed as the United American Independent Truckers Association. Or UAITA. The only Independent long haul OTR truckers group that had and has a sibling dedicated to us going towing. With that the Rode Knytes became the Mountain West chapter of what is the United American Road Resque Towing Association. And the rest as they say is history. The group maintains our connection to the Hazzard County Knytes and all that makes that up. Wanna challenge this Mr Ben Whatsyournutts? Here you see time frames and real names. There was another statement that this MonkeyWrencher said as well. There is nothing wrong with being a common Joe. I have never ever wanted to be bigger than life, etc. Quite the opposite. All I care about is tooling on old trucks, old warbirds, and going towing with my one, truck, one and a half ton tow truck, and live simply. But as my Dad said to me when I was young when complaining ask can I myself fix it. Dad used to say don't bitch, elect to fix. The list of accomplishments of our group runs deep. Some only suggested by me, some worked on by myself and some done with the group but I have never ever taken credit for anything that the organization has done or been successful with. However I will say this, when the concept of  first responders medical support program was brought up by me through the Hagerman Fire Department as a Boy Scouts Explorer Post I was told I was nutts. However with some seed money provided by my dad, along with a Federal Grant in 1978 Hagerman's QRU was created, but I never did get the thank you I deserved, nor do I ask for it now, but some respect is due. The fact is purtty simple that my Dad and Mom through many years service to our nations Military and following civil service at Hill Air Force Base, the fact that both my parents stuck together and built what they did through many years of hard work, scrimping and saving and never doing credit cards or putting themselves in debt, plus knowing how to invest money for the long haul, gave me paths and opportunities that few kids had. When my parents passed away, Dad in April 1978, the same month and year I got LexiBelle, and Mom in March of 1983 they left to my understanding the exact amount in both property, investments and holdings right at $3million bucks. Much of that was lost in taxes, poor other investments, which left in 1990 when cousin Bud took over said Trust Fund a little over $700,000.00 When I lost the money of some $600,000.00 $100,000.00 has been ate up in legal fees and its understood that by years end all of the $600,000.00 will be recovered. When it does I'm going to be in a spot to invest most of that into my business and help the Hazzard County Knytes, The Rode Knytes and other groups I have been part of recover and be what they were once. Anyone want to challenge that? My ability to make something better for myself is limited but I don't give up. Even if some fartknockers in Pocatello wants to rain on my party. Sorry haulers but all this barn yard needs to be aired out, but remember I never started this feud but I wont back down either.

Another show in the can

So it was a Wednesday and after living through a night of acid reflux and being part hungry and part well something else I crawled out of my nap sack and headed to the computer. Downloaded the farm report and a few tunes and then with balls in hand due to low fuel and tapes in second seat I went to the studio. So in a good mood I walk in ready to tackle the Wednesday edition of Hazzard County Kountry TV. But my good mood would be history since Kent decided to get on one of his shit head attacks about not checking out the GL-2 Cannon Camera on the previous day. Was I missing something? The GL-2 was not to be checked out until the following week. So I had a vapor lock mind wise. Not that I don't have anything else on my mind. See Kent and all the rest at CH-12 only have CH-12 to tend to. Unlike them I have a towing business to tend to, fly over fields delivering farm chemicals on those fields, keeping ayrecraft in the ayre along with hiring new agricultural aviators, then there is the day to day management of the UOTRTA and that's on a short day. So an occasional oops mind wise can happen. Now Kent could have related the situation in a better way than chewing my hind leg like he did. But since the director Kathy was not there Wednesday Kent thinks he gets a thrill having conniption fits. There was a small verse in the last Star Wars movie that went, " Those with power don't like to loose it" Some power, but if it makes the guy feel better better he off load on me since that takes it off someone else. After Next week a meeting of minds will take place at CH-12. After I firmly settle on the place in GF. More in the early AM.

The misknowmer of so many;

For those who know me you know few even some who are members of our great and progressive organization realize the many intrinsic hours I put into the leadership of our exploits , our news and the many media extensions we feed. Yet I got this call from some butt wipe the other day on CH-12 saying I just ramble on without doing research. Oh really I responded, in that even on Sunday when so many are kicking back with a brew or two in their hands I am on line, in studio and elsewhere working for the benefit of all those trying to make a buck driving a truck. With that sedd, I must say this fartknocker is like what we used to call in the day a CB Rambo, all talk in a protective environment yet would cringe if in fact they were found. I find this kind of chicken crap just that crap. Makes one wonder why I do what I do on CH-12 anyway. Considering the plans are to relocate in a few weeks. With that said the few of you who do live make that exist in Pocatello need to know wuzz up every week so I do my best to extend what I know to you. With that sedd, The United American Independent Truckers Association is considering a move to reorganize under a different handle come mid 2009. The new handle will be the United Over The Road Truckers Association. No action is seen on this until the fall conference scheduled for November in Boise. More Later,

They need to read the profile my thoughts on spam email

Every day and sometimes more often than that I get a ton and a half of emails. Most are not those I wish to read but are of spam. Or what we used to call when we got unsolicited mail in our mail box on the farm. Back then few of them did not have a way to see who you are from just getting your name from the phone book. Today however trash email comes from so many online services that are shared between online services. However what would be great I think is for these services more over those sending me the trash email to begin with is to read the profile of who they are sending those trash mails to. Would they send them as readily if my email was something like oh I don't know say hazzardcountysheriffsoffice@hotmail.com or something or would they just send crap any way? What if your email was ncis@.gov or something similar? I must have the biggest or smallest pecker or just need to depart from my money so bad that I would ever send money to somebody in a nation in the mid east because every day I get thousands of emails telling me so. Now don't get me wrong I'm all for commerce and business. Likewise emails from my suppliers dealers and so on they I need, but come on I do not need to see emails from those who just need to tell me I need to bleed money to somebody who is just running a scam. Next blog, the move west is on the HUD.

Don't call me a prude but never try to assimilate me

There has been a bunch of talk both on ayre as well as in my office that I should be a prude, moreover they want to tame me. Some of this ratchet jawing is due to the fact that I focus a bunch of attention on the ayre about things sexual. Now its not that I have not had real sex in near 6 years although that might be part of it a little, but us who drive long haul Over the road trucks, after several hundred miles of seeing nothing more than black ribbon highway want heck we need well sex with a female. I'm not into the queer gear here okay? With that sedd consider this too many foopaws and taboo things are part of the sexual mystic, like wize many misinformation about things sexual, are rampant among us long haul gear grinders. So that's why I do so much and so many things about male to female or female to male sexual behavior as well as real sexual information so you who deliver the nation so you know what is real and true and what is just rumor or sexual stupidity. Okay enuff of that.

Here where I reside the LDS(MORMON) Church is the big ball and chain to domestic freedom both in our towns and cities as well as rural areas. The best way to construct an image in your mind consider the overall aggressor of Star Trek, called the Borg. Where the main goal is to assimilate everyone to think, believe, and just behave alike. To make us all a collective. For us who belong to a more free thinking organization that is the parent of The Hazzard County Rode Warriors Association called the Hazzard County Knytes Kustmz Association and myself even more so I am a none conformist, fully off the wall independent thinking person and I will not be assimilated. In this case resistance is not futile.

IN THE KOUNTRY YOUR FEET MAY BE YOUR LIFE

As I walked into one of my other rooms here at the Rode House I stepped upon a small pin. While it did not cripple me it sure made me make a few noises that would be for prime time in Sunday school. Do you ever think how much you depend on your feet? You walk on them, drive and fly with them and in some cases they become your extra set of hands. Yet few of us really think about our feet, and or yes toes. Until they are not able to function, whether that's due to injury to them directly or indirectly like through a disruption between them and your brain via the spinal cord. This very part is going to be slight side road here but must be. For all those who have asked me why I am so involved in this media crap. The simple fact is as I get older I also see even though I try to ignore it, but I see the day when perhaps, I can't fly, can't go tow or turn a wrench and would be hard pressed to farm any more. Then what? Sit at home and watch TV? I know I do that now but that shortly is changing, but getting back to it here what happens when I can't truck, tow, turn a wrench etc? Well if I can't do them jobs at least I can still be their eyes and their mouthpieces and that why I keep one foot in the soup of doing media. Either print or electronic such as TV and/or radio. No you know.

 Okay then but so what happens if you injure your feet? Do you examine them as carefully as you would your breasts, both men and women. Do you examine your toes in the tub as carefully as you look at your ball sack to make sure everything is okay and intact? If not you should. Are you careful about your domain? Do you keep your walking paths clean, and free of glass and other dangerous clutter. How about chemicals not only those carried in from the barn like pesticides insecticides and so on? Do you? If not you should. Your feet are the fastest carrying messenger receiving station to the human body. Your blood stream can pick up bad things and carry them throughout your body through your feet faster than any other part of your body except for your private parts. So be careful to your peds some day you might miss them if you don't.

Into the Kountry and on the Rode

Then there is the YouTube stuff. For us older folks YouTube means well the tube that connects the bladder of a woman to her opening, Know what I mean Vern?

YouTube certainly did not mean self generated DIY streaming video online for all to see and see they do. Of course at the rate TV is going purtty soon TV will only be available online via the Internet, but perhaps Gene Roddenberry of Star Trek fame was right, Television was a form of public entertainment that did not last past the 23rd century. Thank goodness for and why my real passion is still and will be radio.

However I warn you do not throw away you video tapes, or VCR's as sometime into the future they will become valuable. Hell I saw this thing on Ebay the other day, an old 6 channel crystal channeled CB radio went for $20,000.00 Hell the thing sold maybe for $50.00 in the early 1970's when the form of short distance communication came of age and the rage. I still drive with one on all the time and a base CB is on at my house 24/7. Next Blog

INTO THE KOUNTRY

If your like most of us genuine kountry male corpuscles through the last ratings sweeps you might have caught one of those big countdown shows. VH-1 does one called I love the whatever, CMT one of the same family of Viacom does many countdowns from the best girl bands to the hunkiest male performers, but my question is where the hell do they find these guest commentators? Most are either from TV shows that died to actors who have no current job and the list goes on, but if they really wanted to find someone to do that comment crap they could sure as hell call me. Then you see the featured shows and you wonder who picked those shows? Hell I never saw half of them but considering that I was unfortunately raised in the Mormon paranoia of both northern Utah and Idaho, so most of anything good never made it on a TV show in my neighborhood. Hell I was 8 years old on a trip to DisneyLand before I ever saw Howdy Doody, and Buffalo Bob. However taking off on the era of the 1980's I purtty much came to the party in fact in the 1980's I also came at the party and I'll let ya'll finger what that means. The tunes were hot, the women dressed even hotter the hot metallic looks of the halter tops that gals wore, the neon nylon hose along with a solid colored leg warmer, radical T shirts that could be custom  made at such stores as T Shirt Plus a chain store based in Waco Texas yes that Waco Texas. We had the best franchisee in the nation in Twin Falls at our T shirts plus cuzz we had this hottie named Heidi that brought me from being cold to very heated and it did not matter what the temp was outside.  Of course in the 80's at the same mall, the Blue Lakes Mall Twin Falls Idaho where Fred Meyer has their store now, was where I first found out what made a female tick.  Her name was Tammy, she drove a hot Mercury Futura ZX7 ah that was a kuel car but she was even hotter. She worked at this women's ready to wear store, and very often although I would make up stories about why I was in the store she soon decided to make me all the much warmer in the back of the store. Ah yes I too loved the 80's. But the fact is I think we were innocent minded then. Getting a gal in front of a camera to publicize an event of the Hazzard Rode Warriors or to get a pic with a truck that was trick for a publication was as easy as putting a notice on paper and putting it on a bulletin board at GearHeads or a hair salon. Not so today, women are just not that way and both genders have their heads still in the shell after the hell of 9-11-2001 . Before that the numbers either meant the 11th day of September or the ninth month of the year or the number you dialed to get the fuzz, or meat wagon rolling. 911 was also the name of perhaps the most educational reality show ever produced. They ought to do that now.  However I think too 9-11 should have also been a serious wake up call to, too many people who have their ass's hanging out and are way to smug for their own good.

This nation needs to grow up The USA is way too immature

I tried to modify a computer program to make this blog a bit sportier but it did not work well in fact it did not work at all. I have came to the concussion conclusion that the two people running for the Democratic nominee for President of these U.S.-of A, states are acting like two spoiled brats fighting over a piece of candy. The trouble is the piece of Candy is the White-House and our leaders who make policy and regulations that you and I have to abide by going towing and trucking. More over the laws we all like them or not have to live by in this nation. It's been getting so bad lately I'm really rethinking my loyalty to this nation and thinking maybe moving to Canada. They seem to have a bunch more freedom in that part of the North American continent than we do. A dear associate of mine that I'm trying to mend fences with, Brian of TV station KPIF CW-15 Chubbuck Idaho, once told me as we scanned the hams of some sweet honeys at a bikini bar a few months ago, that he told me "Cooter you just can't save them all" That may be true but I would have at least like to have saved one of them if for no other reason than to bring one home and keep her from my own. Getting back to the elections . Our nation is in dire need for a serious enema . We have 3 people running for the office of President, all three are no more ready or seriously skilled enough to do that job. Trouble is many of our youth are leaning towards  Obama , while others are siding with Hillary Clinton and while the party is splintered some are wanting to keep the Republican's in power through John McCain. The trouble with McCain is he is old, like really up there although perhaps that is what we need is some serious maturity in the big chair rather than these youngn's with serious cases of diaper rash. There are serious problems in this nation hat is only going to get worse if our head guy(or Gal) is not up for the job. Never mind number of years on earth but more over the ability to lead. But all this seriously means we are going to have to choose, between one who is older and all to one who is bolder who can inject some sense into the way things are done in Washington DC. So here is my idea, let's draft Shooter Jennings for President, or maybe Willie Nelson. As I round the bend headed to the Cat House here, I need to ask is the big bad dawg Google having trouble again. Seem as though my Gmail is taking way too long to load and is not quite what it used to be. Another thing if Yahoo and Microsoft merge will that be a better outfit? I need to be shown. Since my OutLook Express and my Hotmail account while it will work, could be better. If all of them loaded as quik as that of my Yahoo.com mail client I'd have it made. Computer Tech and American Politics are like the entire nation all need to grow up.

The Tech itch needs scratching and just who is Bob Goldwater?

I was sitting here all day getting some rest since Tuesday's are one of my days off. The first thing I noticed was that on our KPIF TV -15 which is all I can watch since since I was conned into mving here I can't afford cable. So the show is very low in sound volume, but the dang commercials startle you off the couch. Of course or CW-15 here has no or very little in the way of local TV ads as well as the fact Brian can't get anyone that he can afford to pay to produce any. Hey I was there I was willing and I'm still Brian's best friend here in Pocatello area. I am the only person that still backs up Brian in public if someone talks about KPIF more over if the guy would just look past his own stubborn streak, and see his best FREE asset is me, well Brian knows how to get in touch with me. Okay have you heard the ads from that attorney Bob Goldwater? About all those law suits ? I have wondered has any one ever called someone to sue one of these other lawyers? Trust me this is serious, your time to act is running out email me lets put a stop to over ambitious crafty attorneys. Meeting with attorney this week about fixing this financial situation regarding my cousin. According to a local mental health practioner here in Pocatello I'm more than able to handle my own financial affairs despite my low skitso condition so we are going to petition SSI to have Bud removed as bean counter for me and me do my own accounting. Following that its hammer down on Bud , and resolve the deal about the loss due to a dillweed of an investment to an annuity. Something neither my mom nor Dad would have even done since neither Mom nor Dad trusted annuities or that kind of financial vehicle. Mom and Dad believed in property as being a symbol of wealth or at least financial stability. Which is why Mom bought that bank at the I mean really bought the bank in Boise on 10th and Bannock which at today's value in property in Boise would have made me much more money than that annuity Bud put me in that has caused me to live like I do now. Bud may not have much but he's going to have less. I should have just ate bologna and bread and sued Bud years ago. But things are due to be fixed soon. They say to forgive is divine, Oh I forgive my cousin, we are all human, but just as it should be I need my money. So the fix is in the mix.

Until L8R Taters

From the Rode House

As I watched the TV earlier I had to laugh at the news story of Idaho mainly Eastern Idaho pitching the area to film makers. Oh really ? Where are they going to find an talent acting or otherwise to be on the tube. An associate and no not Brian, said the other day one of the problems I have in this area is due to the fact that while I myself can't see it there is a BIG RED NEON sign on my forehead saying PREDITOR. While nothing could be further from the truth. Heck if I needed (Some days it might be nice) But if I needed to get laid that bad, a 247.3 actual miles to the Sugar Shack in Wells Nevada would take care of that problem and for much less money and much less stress. So its not a he and she thing that I do this media thing up for. The main reason I do this is simply that I like you have are out there rolling freight up and don that interstate looking for road, weather, and industry news and information, even if my freight is resquing disabled trucks still its still pulling a load. The thing is I also can remember when we first established the HQ of Dixie Diesel in Boise, years ago, back in 1985 to be exact there was no ground school for aspiring broadcasters at least in Idaho. The Ron Bailey Western School of Broadcasting in Oregon had closed up and even if it hadn't that was a long way to go to hire interns to burn what we were doing. So at the 1986 Western Idaho State Fair in Boise at the Boise State University ( BSU) booth, they were asking what kinds of programs would be attractive and would help the area? I pitched the concept of a Vo-Tech , Radio-TV-Media program . Now it probably did not hurt that the head bean counter of Confederate Star was also a member of the advisory committee of BSU nor a bad thing that same bean counter owned Turnkey Construction of Boise that designed and constructed both the Ann Morrison Performing Arts Center nor the Boise State Pavilion but he did. After I had stupidly moved from Boise to PocaShit Idaho to go to body and paint school. Should have done that at BSU, if I had, much money and a bunch of crap could have been avoided including but not limited too loosing the Gen Lee, having a son, etc. Hind sight is 20/20 meaning even I have ill faited concepts. Any mile that Vo-Tech Media program did take off at BSU. Started by none other that the Hazzard County Rode Warriors Association. Could that happen here in Eastern Idaho at ISU ? Sure it could, but again that would take a heavy duty pull out of the head from Mormon Fear, here that don't seem likely.

More in the AM have thundering children's above my head need to get some grub. L8R Haulers

   

It is tyme to get back on the road carry the load

Okay its Saturday and while I tried to sleep more my back was killing me so bad I could just barely walk up right upon awakening. With the weekly pow-wow here at the Rode House it was time to snag some moo juice from the store and all . So I walked up to the nearby stop and rob and bagged some grub. How the total was over my food stamp level was beyond me but life goes on. Should have just 5 fingered the cakes and bought the moo and soda. But this brought me to thinking why the hell am I waiting to get my six out of this economically challenged city when just 300 miles from here is Mountain Home, 35 miles south of Boise, and just 40 miles north of Hazzard. The fact that none of the Hazzard County Rode Warriors Association lives in or even near to eastern Idaho except myself here in Pocatello one in Idaho Falls and one in BlackFoot , that dawning is enuff to say this just might not be the place. If the goal to provide a media extension of what we are doing TV and radio wise to my kin folk is a consideration , They all live in Grace and Soda Springs Idaho. NOT POCATELLO.  The only kin folk I have living in Pocatello is my cousin Donna who is not watching my TV show or anything else we are doing, My XYL watches but only to make fun of it and as far as my son, I'm still not convinced he is my son. So what am I doing here, drowning where I can't even pay a phone bill, my truck for going towing is 70 miles west of here and the paint is all but on the wall, get the hell out of there more over me outta here. So I gave my landlord my 90 days notice. Looking back to Mini Cassia to start but the end goal is Mountain Home.  An old saying that my Mom used to say when I was much younger went something to the effect that a fool and his money are soon parted. I must have been a fool for listening to Brian Nugent of KPIF. When he pitched the concept of me buying that CW TV station. I truly think he was really looking for a person to bail out the station, make improvements then be done with me. Again thank goodness I have Bud in Utah taking care of the money and it not be in my hands.  The TV thing might be even more of a good flavor if in fact there was employable people in media here. Sure there were tons of honeys at the KPIF/CW ANTM auditions for a big maybe, and even then Brian had trouble finding the money for airfare to send the winner to Hollywierd. But that maybe is backed up by a TV show that all of a sudden shows up here. Granted our gig gives a for sure rather than a maybe but even so 80% of those came from nearby Idaho Falls area of Idaho, not POCATELLO. When one considers the fact that Idaho State University does not offer a hands on VO-Tech radio/TV/ media course but Boise State University does, something that the Hazzard County Rode Warriors had a major involvement in to creating, more on that in another blog. But ISU does not offer such a course. Why? The only reason not enuff media activity here to merit that. Not that there couldn't be but that would take the major pulling out of the head from LDS mud to get that done. Much of the problem that Utah has in growth is the same as POCATELLO. Mormon Fear. And if your not kissing LDS ass in either location not much of anything else is going to happen either. While Western Idaho has some of that its not as deep footed as it is here. However to be fair I will snoop some before I split from here in the BlackFoot/Idaho Falls Idaho area both for a pad to hang my hat in as well as partly base Confederate Star Media in but not the bio fuel plant or much of anything else. When deep in my heart I am going to get my six out of here, to Western Idaho. Where there?  In My next Blog.

  

Cabin Fever and what we are and what we are not

It is really coming down here in my area of Idaho. That is snow, snow and more snow. Weather dudes here sezz it'll be better this weekend but what the heck do they really know? Tuesday was a great morning after a month of having my son here at the Rode House he is undergoing some heavy duty mind treatments to be better than what I saw here. Cabin fever is a bit more than what I had anticipated and at least Tuesday I was able to truck over to Rupert and look over operations there. The roads were pretty good going over and coming back in fact it was not until I hit the outskirts of Pocatello that the roads tuned ugly and slick again. Could it be that not only are most of the folks in the Pocatello area cold but that the weather just stays crappy here? Who knows, but again it snows. Went out to Pocky's Denny's for breakfast and albeit it was nice to see the town and streets all to myself, as it looked like one of those shots you see on TV of the Ghost Town, seemed as though not only did they roll up the sidewalk but the whole blooming town to go with it. If only I would have rolled out to Daytona as I planned a few weeks ago Icould be enjoying albeit rainy but hotter outside weather than here. Its amazing what happens during Speed Weeks at Daytona this time of year. The cabin fever here is so bad that I'm having withdrawls of not getting any serious action of the female type. So bad that a poodle looked good the other day. I'm talking a two legged Poodle so don't get to thinking that I have resulted in asaulting critters. Talks are still going on here about us snagging KPIF TV 15 of Pocatello but the powers that be now want to talk to the real owners of the station not just Brian and I so we see what leaves shake off that tree. Have not done my other TV show on local access channel for two weeks but looking to get back to that come Monday. That all said, when it comes to the Rode Knytes Association there is a big observation as to just what the Rode Knytes Association is and to what it really is not. The Rode Knytes Association is nothing more and certainly not less than the grouping of those who love old and vintage as well as custom tow trucks. We as we concieved the organization not a big rig truckers organization. We are all towing people not long haul truckers but since much of what effects long haul trucking effects us in towing we keep our thumbs on the pulse of both industries. Most of the Rode Knytes Association are members in good standing or associate members of the Owner Operator Independent Drivers Association or OOIDA. Which is the best as far as we are concerned in representing Americas long haul truckers. But what the OOIDA does not do is represent the interests of the towing industry very well if at all. Now there is a supposedly national towing organization called the Towing and Recovery Association of America or TRAA, however their views are more to the east coast and of the bigger larger metro city area fleets. The lonely 6 or less number of trucks to just an independent toing professional in a small rural town like me here in Hazzard or such is just not their biggest concern. Which is the who that the Rode Knytes Association represents. The small fleet back country towing professional. When the concept of putting together a truckers TV show came we thought we as members of the Rode Knytes had hit pay dirt. But that glitter just turned out to being little more than glass fragments in that dirt. What we are looking at doing is putting together something we will simply call towing TV. More about that next time. But to sooth my cabin fever I'm going to take a nap.

XYL TURNING QUEER AND POCATELLO HOME OF WELFARE

Welcome to my highway. I am fully convinced that the city of which I currently reside is the home of public assistance and welfare. Consider this; of all the towns, in our great state of Idaho Pocatello has within more square blocks more public assistance and mental health services agencies than just about any town in Idaho. I do not know if its because Pocatello sits out the backyard of Blackfoot Idaho where the states cracker nuts are housed or that Pocatello due to some serious mismatches in state and city government has created a city of blight, whatever the cause why is it that Pocatello once a city of prosperity is now threatened with its own survival. Does make one think don't it? So then one may ask why Dixie Diesel Radio/Television makes one of its media centers here? First Pocatello sits at a juncture of 4 major highways, through our state, they being U.S. 30, I-15, U.S. 89 and I--86 . That being the case we are here to better serve you our fellow truckers and members of the Rode Eaglez Association. The other part of this is that like Johnny Appleseed if we don't plant the seeds othing will grow. Enuff sedd. Okay then, The Hazzard County Knytes and the Rode Eaglez Association have decided to pass on buying KPIF TV of Pocatello and establish our own station near Mountain Home Idaho. With only 35 miles to our capitol city of Boise which gives us a greater media labor force to hire from and get visual on air talent from, as well as Mountain Home Idaho is a location of a U.S. Air Force Base as such the city and area are more military friendly, and last but not least Mountain Home s only 46 miles north of Hazzard Idaho, and I do not need to go into the advantages of that but suffice to say much more will get done much faster. I am dedicated to relocating there mid June to early July. Last but certainly not least my XYL(EX-YOUNG-LADY)-{former wife} is beginning to show signs of turning queer. Not that I mind that much as after all I don't have to mess with her any more. However now that I have full custody of my son, my solo wings are getting a bit clipped, and its real hard to be changing my ways after so many years. But I will manage. Current regulations for truckers that were made law last year in our nations capitol is now manditory. the HOS are however being revized and should have a new set of game rules out by mid June, according to boh the NHTSA as well as DOT. Light duty CDL is being propsed in congress this year as well as though many state DMV's. For many years we who towed under a claSS D license will now have to graduate into a Class 3/CDL or one for light duty under 25,000 GVW Commercial hauling. As always production agriculture gets a reprieve on this with farm trucks and vehicles although licensed as commercial trucks will be allowed a stay in the current regulatory changes. The rest of us will have to get our CDL's no excuses this time. Dig out the books . Because of the change here the Rode Eaglez will be looking at setting up both low cost training classes as well as third party CDL skills testers and testing centers. These centers will be spot tested in Idaho. If succesful we will extend the testing centers to other area and regional states of our membership chapters. Dixie Diesel finally goes on Television, Friday at 5:00PM Mountain Standard Time in Pocatello Idaho on Cable access channel 12 . What makes this very special, is that Dixie Diesel TV will be the first Television show on TV for news and 411 dedicated to both the Trucking and Towing industries. So if your in the area tune in okay? If we get this off the tarmac we can use it as a first block of the building of a nationwide show on TV for truckers and trucking. We could really use your support. Last I'llbe out of service for two months as ou Internet services are being upgraded from having to pay for I-net access through someone else and us having our own Internet Access. In essence we are building our own I-net access system.
