SOA Update

I’m awake for two reasons right now.

First viewed the premier episode of Son’s of Anarchy

and as I predicated and predicted it was in all ways up to the months in advance hype. Many of the characters that I thought were bumped off in season 4 returned. The challenge now is keeping Clay from resuming command while Jax is in jail. I did not see that coming. Nor did I see Jax becoming friendly with the new cop of Charming. Nor did I see that Pope becoming so chummy with that Oakland PD detective. Remind you of anyplace? (maybe Burley) I think this is going to be a wyld season. The problem at least with me is that I’ll be offline and no cable for a few weeks, but I’ll make up for it, saw an alternative to Cable One that will enable some watching so wont be that bad.

The other reason I’m awake is that I’ve began packing. But because I have neighbors can’t make much noise, so had to stop. My what relief it’ll be to be able to howl at the moon without anybody saying shut up. Any assemblance of privacy here at the Powers, is a rarity. If at all achievable.

Much to discuss in the AM so I’m off to bed. With any luck, my money will be here from CTR, if in fact I get any at all. For CTR’s sake I better. SAMCRO MC reaches to Blackfoot as well as it is here.

See ya’ll in the AM, this wolf is headed for the rack.

Been there, done that but not long enough

Well here tiz Liz, the end of another day. The day marks two events, one partially important as it’s the anniversary of the day this nation got reminded that this Union is very open to attack. That or borders much less our airspace is not as secure as one would imagine it to be, or expect it to be.

9-11-2001 was one of those events that unless you knew someone or knew of someone that was directly involved you might have sluffed it off as just another tragic happening showing the Yankee prehistoric, neanderthaulic mind.

9-11-2001 started off as another day for this big bad wolf, in Goons Ferry Idaho. Was prancing around the house, chasing another bunch of mice as where I lived was over run with the pesky rodents. Had , had some good swine sex, you know the kind of serious animal wyld sex that one gets once a century if that.

So was up to grab some coffee, and went into the home studio, name me a radio announcer that don’t have a home studio and I’ll show you a radio announcer that has no intention of being a radio personality, just a button pusher.

So went into the home studio, and tweaked on the TV, and saw the tragedy.

At first, I couldn’t believe it. NYC perhaps, but the Pentagon getting ran into? How can that happen? Did the guy in Home security at the Pentagon’s intel board go to the head? That intel center can see, monitor and hear a moth flying over the Arizona desert, how could it miss something aimed directly at itself?

So I get a phone call from White Dove a gal I was seeing at the time who also was in charge of our east coast media center which my Nephew Tim, runs as well. The center was inside the 2nd tower. Fortunately both made it out okay, the eastern media center is now in Charlotte , but at the time I just grabbed my fanny, wondering who screwed the pooch?

Some say the whole damn thing was staged by then President Bush, Junior, to warrant going to Iraq to finish what his Dad had started. Hell the guy had just gotten elected a few months earlier. With Apache helicopters just over the bridge in New Jersey, why not just shoot the planes down? True , tragic life lost and all, but a few is better than many. Sometimes ya’ll have to put the many in front of the few or the one.

Of course tonight also is special to us Sons of Anarchy fans, as SAMCRO rydes into action for a 5th season, of which I’ll miss 8 episodes of, but will refreshen after the cable is installed at the Wolf’s Den at SAMCRO MC Idaho HQ here in Burley.

This season puts Jax in charge of SAMCRO. Can he handle it?

Season 4 is out now and ya’ll can bet it’s in my collection come pay day.

Speaking of Pay day.

I have seen many operations in my time, but CTR Payee Services of Blackfoot Idaho has to be one of the squirliest outfits. First someone can’t do math very good. Been short changed since the gal in charge of the outfit, either has lost her mind or has no idea of the specifics of a client. First while an oversight, still costing my cable at a critical juncture in March when the club was just about ready to finalize on KBAR here, then its been me trying to stretch $50.00 each month, plus what I make and while appreciated each month from the club, pulls me up short. But I had thought me moving from Heyburn to the Powers was to save me money, but even at Heyburn I could afford my cell phone. Here its months between, and I had nearly gotten to the point to where, I could go on a contract, get off prepay, so this CTR gal could pay it each month. But I need a $100.00 deposit first. But just ain’t quite had the $100.00 . Missed I don’t know how many toews due to lack of a phone, which at the end zone here means no extra bucks. A week ago, due to lack of funds and no phone, Rick had indicated that a heavy haul run was on the horizon. But no could get ahold of me. Guess what $200.00 blew off like a lid off a pressure cooker. That $200.00 could have paid for a few things. Now been waiting nearly a week, and still no money. Anytime you can’t even get a read on a company on a Google search, its best to be looking at some new company to handle something as important as monthly funds.

I know they have rules and all but hey how about getting me my money>

To answer the question the search is on for another bean counter.

More after SOA.

Ever get the idea that today just ain’t going to be your day?

Ever get the idea that today is just not going to be your day, and that ya’ll might be best off staying in bed?

Over nyte on the NyteShift edition of HazzardAyre I had one malfunction after another. But it didn’t start there.

LexiBelle when I had to switch tanks started sputtering like she weren’t getting enough go fluid to the carburetor. Then to make matters worse had to slip the clutch to get this POS Mercedes up a good incline onto a flat trailer. LexiBelle has a leak in left tank, so need to use the right one. Thinking collapsed hose. But dang it.

Sure buy a new truck, but for what’s wrong with LexiBelle it’d cost me more to replace her, and after all ya’ll cain’t just replace your spouse now can ya’ll?

So get in studio, and first the Internet short changing all over the dang place, then oh hell, spilt the coffee, as I was putting it in the basket. Damn near made a basket case out of me.

There is supposed to be a guy by the name of Murphy, who wrote this bunch of things called Murphy’s Law. The ones that goes, “ If things are going your way, ya’ll might just be on the wrong road” and so on.

Whoever it is , whatever it is, I wish this bad news ghost would get its sheer butt outta here.

Good morning Hazzard Nation.

L8R Ya’ll

Even Confederates disagree once in awhile

So logged onto my Facebook page, and saw that the SOCV had once again dug up the mishmash I did to enhance our arrangement of and for that organization with us here in the Knytes-of-Anarchy. Now understand, I had a verbal agreement with some idiot who claimed to be representing that group, yet I am finding its no doubt some damn drunk somewhere living out some ridiculous fantasy. Trouble is the dude sunk us in with him. Real name Stephen Monk, aka Stonewall Jackson. Bullshit. The fact is, the Knytes-of-Anarchy is not beholding to anyone except perhaps SAMCRO MC, and the UAITA. Past that we are of our own organization. Fact is too, there are times I think other groups are so damn jealous or envious of us that they love creating fuss’ . It’s like a kountry singer or comedian. Until you get stardom nobody cares what you do, or what song you cover. Get famous and oops ya’ll got copyrighters and so on that come out of the walls like cockroaches wanting their part of YOUR pie. Why can’t some just congratulate us for not only holding onto, but preserving the Hazzard Nation but likewise what I will call the Hazzard Confederacy? Guess the economy that started going into the manure pile from the time we swore Abe Lincoln into office, until now, has strangled some to the point some , even certain members of the SOCV grab at straws and want to split hairs. Why not just say thank you and lets all work together, to bring about the resurrection of our Confederate southern ideals and government. Aren’t southerner's more open and wider focused than this?

But I after jumping through hoops took down the one photo and deleted it. But I’m sure some dickhead over at the SOCV will dig something else up. Question is, which one of the Knytes pissed in his oatmeal?

Okay , then onto a light side.

debate question. We all recognize and know that the most recognized car on the planet is the General Lee, but did you know, that the most recognized theme song on the planet is of my heart and soul? yeppers theme to Airwolf.

Hmmm, HazzardAyre. Ain’t that we have been doing for 15 years now?

While others would rather sit around and find fault, the Knytes-of-Anarchy is out just plain doing and succeeding.

Keep it in the Ayre.

L8R Ya’ll

But whose the damn girl?

This summary is not available. Please click here to view the post.

So you didn’t make the DCC , try being one of the Hazzard Knytes , Hazzard Angels

I watch with some amusement and dismay such reality shows as DCC Making the Team on CMT.

Here thousands of the most scrumptious women in the country travel to Dallas to maybe get a shot at a job that only pays $500.00 per year with some slight royalties on sales of calendars and such.

Yet the Hazzard Knytes on an average pays $50,000.00 a year plus 30% royalties on calendar and promo items, and we have to near beg for talent.

Now granted, auditioning in downtown Burley or Twin Falls Idaho is probably part of it, but even albeit somewhat better numbers of possibles , but we just don’t get quality talent.

The question becomes why?

Sure the Dallas Cowboys are a great organization, but the Hazzard Knytes and working with an organization with a minimum membership in each of 50 states of America, of 1,000 one would think we could at least command some serious attention.

Then I watch all these pageant contests on TV that mothers damn near starve and shove their daughters even preteens into contests, and one has to wonder, is that one 15 minute shot on TV really worth that kind of mental trauma that, that kid is going to experience.

I also watched this show on CMT Friday following DCC 7, Making the team, called Cheer. Will these TV networks not stop at nothing to snag a rating? Hell I’d rather watch Lizard Lick Towing.

This entry is aiming at something and I’ll get into it Saturday, but to put it shortly, would you as a gal be better off auditioning to be one of the Hazzard Knyte’ , Hazzard Angels? Or be degraded by auditioning for a very low wage talent job , being a Dallas Cowboy Cheerleader?

So we’re back to this? Pretty bad news for today’s TV generation

So we’re back to this ? The Disney channel, from Jessie to Shake it Up , while good shows in and of themselves it’s a pretty bad reflexion of how the modern Television landscape of choices today’s television generation has to watch, especially the older ones of us.

What happened to the one hour dramas that we enjoyed ?

Best get the Dukes, Starsky & Hutch and the A-Team back on the screen. A little known network that has all been ignored and would be a great place for the Dukes, is RTV or Retro Television. But even RTV is limited.

One of the big projects of the Hazzard Knytes has been and is, Confederate Star Television, a completely solid network, based currently in Wendover Utah, that is currently looking for a network headquarters in Idaho.

CST is dedicated to retaining TV that has family values as well as the action dramas we all loved. CST will be the RTV Network affiliate in both Utah and Wyoming. As well as a full power station in Blackfoot Idaho.

Added to RTV’s line up will include the Dukes-of-Hazzard, BJ & The Bear and Airwolf amongst others.

But aside from us why hasn’t someone retained the idea of delivering quality TV to a public craving good TV?

But it’s a sorry look at TV in its content when an adult has to watch Phenius & Ferb, just to have something of quality to view on a Friday night.

Hitting the rack, twisted my knee so in real pain, taking some Goody’s headache powder and sipping some left over Jessie’s finest, to ease the hurt.

See all Saturday.

You might be a Dukes fan, but do you live Hazzard County?

I have noticed over several days, that a resurgence of Hazzard fever has once again infected Hazzard Nation. But I also find that many are just casual fans, and do not live each day , each hour, each millisecond as if they were in Hazzard County, more over ignore the lessons that each episode taught about life.

Sure these were written by script writers, but the above excellence of Mr. Pyle as Uncle Jessie gave us these lessons in a way even the smallest child could absorb.

Many episodes taught life lessons that if you looked underneath you could gain the message and inspiration from.

Then there are the stars that all too many forgot. My cousin Richie Montgomery of WHOGG. But more over, the balladeer Waylon Jennings, who was a huge star of what was branded Outlaw Kountry music. Yet all too many of the so called fans don’t even know Waylon, have never listened to his music. All too many want to listen to Taylor Swift, but forget Donna Fargo or Lynn Anderson. Both were on the Dukes.

Did ya’ll forget Hoyt Axton? Johnny Paycheck, Buck Owens ?

I am a great fan of Waylon, loved his music then , treasure it now. Plus I love albeit not much of it on YouTube , but love his son Shooter Jennings music. Did you abandon all those people?

Did ya’ll know that long before Gaylord Broadcasting owner of Oprey Land , and producers of a thing we called Hee-Haw, the Hazzard Knytes was buying hours of time blocks on just about every dang TV station in the Mountain West, just so they would run the syndicated version of the Dukes? Did ya’ll know it was the Hazzard Knytes that went to Gaylord Broadcasting and petitioned and lobbied , to get them to put the series on, to get TNN to buy the broadcast rights to the Dukes so we could see it? To get Luke Duke as host of Nashville Now, just so they would run the Dukes? But what did you do to save and serve Hazzard Nation? What did you spend out of your own pocket to further the Hazzard Nation agenda?

Did you pay $500,000.00 for a radio station license just so the voice of the Hazzard Nation could be heard? Did you risk everything even jail time just to preserve Hazzard Nation? Not only myself but many of the 50,000 membership of the Hazzard Knytes have.

Sadly due to so many events that cost me both time and money, I have yet been able to go to DukesFest, or Hazzard County Homecoming, but I try each year, but I’m always there in spirit. The fact is our country is under so much hardship many can’t go to such events.

So the Hazzard Knytes are busy working to bring such an event back to the Mountain west. Likewise I’d love to visit Cooter’s Place, problem is money don’t allow. For that reason, we in the Hazzard Knytes are building Hazzard County CSA(Confederate-States-of-America). The Hazzard Knytes are working on a script to explore Hazzard County beyond the Dukes in two movie projects, one called Hazzard Knytes the other HazzardAyre.

In closing when you have the wind of Hazzard County under your wings, ya’ll can’t do anything but soar, but for the rest, you might be a Dukes fan, but do you really , truly, live and love Hazzard County?

Stay Tuned

Is Facebook only for those without a real life?

I just wanted to expand the conversation ya’ll had with me on air tonight.

I think that while useful as a marketing tool and all Facefart (Facebook) is a place for all too many people without a life. Or women who have no job, are satisfied milking the system for money to live on, as well as siphoning money out of some single guy who has his mind in his pecker to pay for what Welfare and state aid wont.

Oh sure many get online to establish some odd Huey Hogg scam business, but ultimately go broke. Hazzard sake, if someone says hey I’ll give you a job. If you’re a member of the Hazzard Nation you already partly qualify.

Since 1982 all too many of the officers of the Hazzard Knytes(aka:Knytes-of-Anarchy) have never asked for, or gotten one single penny or euro for doing our duties to the club, even though many of us have spent a bunch of money of our own doing it.

That said with increasing demands on many of us keeping a roof over our own heads, the need for help at the club’s radio station, as well as the upcoming launch of Confederate Star Television or CST, requires recruiting .

So there’s a few that I met online through the flag scare last week that’d make good interns if not good employees. They already Know thing Hazzard County, with some education they could absorb Sons of Anarchy and Airwolf things and be good employees.

Now when I started in radio, I was damn lucky if I made $20,000.00 a year starting out. Yet when I pitch $50,000.00 nobody hardly gets interested. Now granted pulling up stakes and moving to Burley Idaho is most likely not a drawing card. Even Idaho itself is not a drawing card. After all , if it wasn’t for the Boise State University Bronco’s football team here Idaho wouldn’t have one damn thing to light up the sky with. At least on the surface.

For the basic Dukes-of-Hazzard fan, many of the story lines were derived from ideas we as a club here in Idaho provided the writers of the Dukes. Granted our group was not illuminated and all like others might be. Yes I got lucky to have a distant cousin working in the series as the lonely radio guy on WHOGG, Hazzard County’s only radio station. But all came from IDAHO> .

Yes I bad mouth Idaho a lot. Anybody who reads the blogs or hears my shows on air here, knows I think Idaho is at minimum 200 years in reverse, I also think that all too many of our Idaho resident citizens are anal retentive. However the sunsets, sunrises, open air and shaking hands with nature in Idaho covers the stupidity. Which is why the Hazzard Knytes and I do what we do. It was said in two Dukes episodes, if it could happen anywhere it will happen in Hazzard County. I have that phrase on a license plate frame on Lexibelle. Which leads to the Hazzard Knytes motto, Don’t ever ask why, ask why not? But getting back.

I remember when I jumped online just a few years ago. About 1995 or so. From Yahoo, to MySpace social networks like those with chat rooms, and all it seemed were for people who had not one damn thing better to do. Seems like chat rooms were and are a thing of therapy for many. At least its better than talking to yourself or getting rejected at the bar? But damn Sam, figure out that there is a whole great world out there, ready to be explored.

The Duke Boys never just stayed at home, they went out and made fun. Sure they had the General Lee, and perhaps jumping your Toyota Prius is not recommended. But get involved in something, even if its watching old reruns of the Dukes.

Take a walk out of the damn house. Get away from the damn computer and keyboard.

If nothing else , take a chance, come work for the Hazzard Knytes, you’ll never know what its like in the real Hazzard County until you really live here.

Ya’ll keep it tween the ditches.
