Still having a problem, so No HazzardAyre Radio until 07:00

Sorry about this, but we are having some software issues here at HazzardAyre Command, so no HazzardAyre Radio overnight, but we look to have this corrected by 07:00(7:00AM) Sunday morning. Wish I had better news. Mike from Cajun Computers and our gurus are hard at it, so we are getting it resolved.
Hey sometimes crap happens.
See ya'll in the Morning , tune in to us at 7am on www.livestream.com/hazzardayre

It's came back to this point

I have often wondered why the hell, that in some parts, not all but most parts of Idaho is far more advanced in its progression of the mountain west time continuim. Where more affluent and greater human resources are more abundant.  Like Utah and here in Western Wyoming are having troubles, economically and greedily and I say greedily, because there are structures for rent that quite frankly you could have rented them for just a few years ago, for a tenth of what they rent it for. That's why I lock in the less expensive rate for at least 5 years, like I did the shop. I'm just trying to find a second seat to co-habitate the shop to offset the extra $500.00 a month . As it may come down to me living in the shop. Which is a bit different than the one I slept in , in Burley, this one is not in a slum like the one in Burley, Idaho is.
But one needs to ask did property rise here? If so why? Jobs have not increased, economic vitality has not increased, in fact Evanston overall has lost jobs, industry and economically been frustrated for nearly the 6 years I abandoned it the second time. Had it not been for some fast talking fatdugly gal who managed the trailer NOT APARTMENT which was how it was advertised, that $500.00 I had in my pocket and I would have split, went to Tooele Utah and I could have been much better off. Any wonder why Miller said no to the race track there? No Knytes, no track. Yes WE KEPT it going for the last 20 years. There's a story there. The Hellbilly Truckers Club, is a sibling of the Knytes-of-Anarchy that is for those that love just old trucks. No frills, just thrills, and loving the old skool ways of what rolling 18 wheels as a true independent, not union, fight the system trucker was all about. Back when coffee was a whopping .25 cents, diesel was 89 cents a gallon, and high horsepower was the thing. So its came back to this point. The Knytes overhaul includes getting some of our siblings the spotlights that they have needed. On part of that story from Tooele Utah. It was in the mid 90's, that through the Deere Dazzlers Association a part of the Knytes that was built for those that lovingly restore old John Deere tractors and farm gear, that had as its President, head coach Jerry Sloan. Who suggested our idea to the then , Larry Miller. Hey it was the Knytes that gave that thing the ignition, nobody else. So why not us be there again, that's in the plans for 2016. Any mile the Deere Dazzlers Association was dethroned but not forgotten. In fact if truth be known Deere & Company has been funding much of the activities including this radio gig we do, for nearly 15 years. They along with Paccar, both Kenworth and Peterbilt, as well as Cat Diesel, and Harley Davidson. Flying J was a big contributor to the Knytes until the fall in 1998 when the company went belly up, due to the pullout of the Montgomery Foundation, and Pilot Travel Plazas bought 70% of that company, we are still waiting for our half of the law suit.
So where is the Dukes half of Hazzard County in all of this. I can't think and there isn't , a group of fans of a TV show, that has contributed more in financial, as well as loyal backing than the Knytes-of-Anarchy aka the Hazzard Knytes, yet does Tracey Duke of the tourist attraction the Boars Nest, or Alma and Ben aka on TV Cooter, have even acknowledged we are out here. Yet who bought the majority of ad time on TNN , CMT, as well as local syndication runs of the Dukes, it wasn't Tracey, or Ben, it was the Knytes. I called dear sweet Alma back in 2001 and said that this thing between coasts should not exist that Ben and I ought to combine minds here for the good and betterment of all things Dukes and of Hazzard. That the Knytes were all for it. Yet, to date outside of a quick meet and greet at the 2006 Salt Lake City Autorama there has yet to be even one phone call. Who though did Alma come to first when Warner Brothers wanted to pull the rebel flag off the General Lee model kits of EMT? The Knytes is who. Who then flew to Burbank and changed WB's mind? The Knytes that's who. Yet has anybody , Alma, Tracey Duke, and anybody else there said thank you? No, which is why in 2008 the shift went from the Hazzard Knytes to the Knytes-of-Anarchy, our theme, then as now, less Dukes, more Hazzard County.
Just to show a measure of forgiveness the Knytes had me offer to spread the news of Tracey Dukes, Boars Nest as well as the new location of Cooter's Place, what happened to the place in Nashville ? The Knytes are everywhere, piss one off you piss off 150,000 others off. But would it hurt Tracey Duke, or Ben/Alma to say, hey there's a loyal bunch out west here called the Knytes-of-Anarchy that has a online radio show called HazzardAyre barking about all things Hazzard? No of course it wouldn't. Which is why today as it was  in 2008 More Hazzard County, less Dukes.
Yes its came back to this.

Better training needed

I hav often said that the best training in our tow bizz is experience. And yet even the so called experts especially the younger studs, need the sage advice of us in this profession more than ever. And long b4 the young studs are sent on a run by themselves.

Case-n-point, Greyhound calls, yes we have their contract here. So the by mistake called Kearns Towing out of Utah, no big except, the youngn's doing the hook up were completely oblivious on what the hell they were doing. Ultimately they had to call us. We got the job done, loaded and in transport, but damn it the owners of Kearns ought to have trained better.

Whether its Donny Cruise's WreckMaster or any other certification program , certification is nothing without practicle knowledge.

In my opinion, these training certification courses need to be taught in a more classroom as well as on scene programs through say a University or Vo-Tech school,

Just my opinion I could be wrong.

Cooter

Cooter’s Place

So there I twuzz sittin in this choke and gag, here in Heyburn, trying to eat something that these days is somewhat a challenge being as I have a lower tooth on the edge of coming out, yet is so entrenched in gum tissue and me with blood so thin it flows like Uncle Jessie’s finest, that if I ripped it out specially in public that I’d bleed like an LDS virgin( If you find one, I’ll buy ya’ll a root beer), and so this really sweet thing struts on by, and her britches were so tight if she fluffed, {remember women do not fart they fluff,}that she’d rip those Wranglers open faster than the Colorado rips open Glenn Canyon. So I thought that if I did the wyld wolf sniff at her tail, like all good wolves do to their intended conquest b4 they get it on, if she’d slap me ? Or would she take it as a well needed greeting to meeting? Would her tail smell sweet as roses or like well manure? Since all are being tribal and jungleistic why not see if the babe your drooling over is fresh, or not going to get interested? Makes as much sense as this TV ad for Trojan vibrators, where this gal is at a bridal shower with her friends and the three friends give her this mechanical penus and their hair is swept back like they has too much Groom & Cleen in their hair. Then at the end of the ad the gal is talking to her new hubby, and he’s thrilled . Over a vibrator? Hey dude, I would not be thrilled at such since, that vibrator means, ya’ll ain’t gettin it done and she's replacing you with that critter.

So that’s it.

I going to go treat my arthritis.

Success is not Achieved in a vacuum

B4 I get into my rant here , I want to make this as clear as Uncle Jessie’s Shine. Since it came up last night at a truck stop.

The basic premise to us having great looking gals in print for our ads for the club, or on TV for the club, or anything else, is not so that I get to have some kind of love connection.

If I need physical contact with a lady, and I cain’t find her in the normal way, a quick trip to Wells Nevada to Miss Donna’s Ranch, a few hundred bucks put on the table and its done, without all the fuss.

We put ladies on video and in print in nice threads , and I think , most of the time in good taste. Not to be sex toys. So people get that out of your heads.

Now then;

It was best said by Casey Kasum on his last airing of AT-40, Success is not achieved in a vacuum, true success only is achieved by the people you work with and the people you work for. In our case, the brotherhood of all of SAMCRO MC, the Knytes-of-Anarchy , Hazzard-County Knytes, and of course the Hazzard-County AyreWolvez, I have been not only lucky , but blessed to work with and work for only the best.

When it comes to towing, I learned the craft and skills from the very best in the business. Likewise I have worked for the very best in the business.

When it comes to radio, again I have worked for and with the best , from Big Kelly at KEZJ(KEEP) in Twin Falls, to Country Joe from KSOP 104.3 Salt Lake City, as well as at station KFI out of Los Angeles California, where I got to intern with Robert Smith, who many of you know as WolfMan Jack, which is where I picked up my on air handle, AyreWolf.

I have hired the best in the business too. From Robin Whittaker formerly of Minidoka Idaho, Miss Dixie Diesel 1993, to our Nurse GoodBody Ellie May, their involvement can’t be replaced by or with any amount of money, they made Dixie Diesel Trucker Radio now part of HazzardAyre Radio, what it was and what it is.

HazzardAyre is going to be hiring more people in the coming months as our TV cable network goes on up to satellite uplink, that you’ll see on Cable-One channel 5, more over HazzardAyre Radio’s program, Highway Hooker Radio the only show on radio for those like me who tow goes on Sirius / XM , on the Open Road Channel, as well as here in our area over KDXB FM 105.3.

We’ll be looking for on air people of both genders, but will favor lady radio personalities since ya’ll tell us, that’s what you like.

We’ll need ad sales people too, with a better than best base pay, of $20.00 an hour plus 20% commission on sales. Not bad huh?

Beyond the money though, its pride in ones profession or in my case professions, that make it to where I love to get up each day and head out on the truck, or bury myself in the radio studio.

I truly love what I do, and yes ya’ll for putting up with me these 31 years or better.

In 1977, the idea of a truckers only or mostly radio station was considered stupid. Most of those I trusted said it’ll never work, I must be crazy. However, Ricky Lemmons of Twin Falls, Alan Culbertson Junior of Hagerman, Ron Adams of Bliss, believed. We found radio gear albeit used, but worked. We started as a outlaw station in the basement of my house near Hagerman(aka-Hazzard) Idaho, with 100 watts, a hidden antenna and a desire, to be thee voice of the American Trucker. We made it happen, and happen it has and continues to do so. With 20 stations both AM and FM airing our programs via syndication and all we grew.

Likewise just like the radio gig, the towing service of mine was created with one truck, that even then had a 1,000 miles on it. While the name of my tow service has changed a few times, to satisfy where I was based. Still what now hails as Dixie Toewing(mis-spelled on purpose) which by years end will run as CooTer’s Toewing, has been owned by and ran by the same person, me. No merges, no bull, just honest service done at rates folks can afford.

All in all, I couldn’t have gotten where I’m at had it not been for my Bro’s and Sis’s in SAMCRO MC, nor my staff.

Yes I fell a few times due to love stupidity and family deaths, yet over time always pulled out of it, again due to the kindness of and brotherhood of SAMCRO MC and all that makes that up.

Sign in my ass

It never fails to amaze me to the extent some outfits go to preserve online whatever. Example, there’s this business service called Manta, that sends me email newsletters on how to do my job better. Okay but they only jot down the headlines not the entire story. To get that ya’ll go sign in. Chute as many of those I get into I forget the password I created to start getting the rubbish, to begin with. Hong Kong Phooey, I want to read the content. If I wanted to be checked over, I go down and get a D-O-T inspection at the chicken coop, over yonder on I-84. Then folks wonder why this nation is slipping into the manure pile. Dang it we have gotten to spooked and paranoid over everything, that if someone barks, most pee down both legs.

One way to chase off some one online reading your whatever, is to make em put down their pedigree b4 they even get to read it. Likewise so will those advertisers buying banner ads on your site. In fact most of them will run like a moonrunner being chased by revenuers.

If your readership goes a bit low, so will the advertisers, their message ain’t seen and no ads.

One thing that HazzardAyre and HellBilly Trucker has ever done is hide behind a bunch of protocol just so ya’ll can read our news and blogs, both printed and on line.

Course few of anything printed or online matches HazzardAyre/HellBilly Trucker.

So I say to the complicated web sites that make me sign in all the time, Sign in my Ass !

 

Okay then. Many of ya’ll wanted to know wuzz up with things, so I’ll deliver.

First there wuzz a slight shake up of the Knytes. Just after Halloween the clubs officers got into our huddle and decided along with the blessings of SAMCRO, MC to make the Knytes-of-Anarchy a regional group, and make the Hazzard-County Knytes the original handle of the club, the Idaho Charter. This was in response to the stealth op of the movie, by the same handle as our publication HazzardAyre. The concept of the movie being co-produced by James Best(Sheriff Roscoe) and his film company here, is a drama looking at the history of both HazzardAyre Radio as well as the Hazzard-County Knytes, that coincidently began right here in Mini Cassia Idaho when I purchased a fair redoux of ye ole Gen. Lee, in 1981.

So the idea was instead of the revision of our Knytes-of-Anarchy handle that many immediately point to as a biker group, rather than the rat rod OTR(Over,the,Road) truckers club we are, keeping in tradition at least for the movie was important. Once we started, I remember sitting one evening guzzling a barley pop with this sweetheart by the name of Mirinda over yonder in Gooding, she told me then swapping out the Hazzard County Knytes for the Knytes-of-Anarchy was a mistake. She was right, as such membership dropped. So again smarter minds have prevailed, the Knytes-of-Anarchy becomes the Mountain West region charter of SAMCRO MC, and the Hazzard-County Knytes becomes the Idaho sub charter. By the highway Mirinda is the only female voting member ever of the Hazzard-County Knytes. She earned that honor. Most women in the club are part of the auxiliary of the Hazzard-County Knytes and are called ; the Hazzard-County Knytes, Pink Ladies. Not Mirinda, she earned her honor in the club, in showing a freshly discharged Marine some kindness during a very difficult time. That kind of thing is what sets Hazzard-County Knytes members apart from the many want to be’s.

More L8R and Friday morning.

Good numbers to ya’ll

We are an impossibility in an impossible universe. - Ray Bradbury

Being a path breaker pioneer can be a hard life.

Being one that breaks the path. Or is a pioneer can be a hard life. Fact is it is downright hell.

If it has not been done b4, bet your next set of 22.5 Firestone’s that you’ll catch more than a clown swallering manure at a rodeo.

Be that as it may. Any time I hear something that I sqwaked about on air or in HazzardAyre that everyone that said nah ain’t so, finds out that what I howl about is right on the money.

When I said that electing Obama President was a mistake, and that folks at least in my region get behind the Confederate Party, I was told I was racist, slave master and words that I will not repeat. But what has happened? We have a President and a yankee Union government that is way out of control. Maybe getting folks looking at the United Confederate States Party , is the road to travel. Put some Dixie smarts in Washington, rather than continue to hear yankee lies.

Then there is radio. Radio was my hobby, for many years b4 I began making it my second job, no that’s wrong, radio is not a job its a career and a loved profession.

However in my area , controlled so much by religious conservatives, Hey this is Idaho, figure out what religious majority rules here. But when I got on air, I put out programming that pulled the plug on the , you can’t put that on the air, to people saying , its about damn time that was heard here.

My style of radio is between WolfMan Jack and Howard Stern, mixed with some Doctor Demento and flavored with Hazzard County and ya’ll get the idea.

We started doing things that folks who owned other radio stations would not or thought not to put on their stations. Yet we did.

When I caught Dr. Ruth on skip from California, I got the inside intel and put her on our station , solid hit, few have tried to do that, same goes with Sex With Sue(www.sexwithsue.com) however, many other shows that were part of both NBC radio, like the ancient TalkNet we ran. Of course copycatters had to put it on their station . Putting man and woman on air here was thought as me just wanting to get a babe in the studio to get a bit of wyld something. Yet from Kristy on the Bob & Tom Show, to many drive time shows, ya’ll hear both local and nationally imported shows doing a gal and guy in the mornings. But damn it we did it first.

Then came us with our network. Back in what now? Chute , 1992 or so I went up to a tiny station in Price Utah, bribed a stations program manager to let me try something. Our shop had just opened up there, so the show was called Dixie Diesel Radio, named after our shop the Dixie Diesel Shop, the first, all truck big rig and smaller diesel performance shop. People thought I was nuts doing that too. Who is laughing now? With 8 shops in 4 Mountain West States, guess we wasn’t so damn dumb after all.

At the time there was a national network called the Interstate Radio Network, a syndicated otr(over the Road) trucker radio network, when it went belly up due to stupidity, we as a group bought the remains of IRN, bought the hole on Galaxy 5, cranked up a few of our own stations here in the Mountain West, and in 1994 the full fueled Dixie Diesel Radio Network and good old Dixie Diesel came on air and nobody here is looking back in fact our overnight haul here is still Dixie-Diesel/HazzardAyre Radio.

To me doing radio to keep those pulling and delivering America is so damn important. Sure there are those that say they support the industry but how dedicated to it are they? As for me diesel flows through my veins , and although both of mine are baby trucks , still both are licensed and insured commercial tow trucks and so as it goes I truck, days and evenings and when not on air I go tow. Nuff said there.

But I’d like just once to be recognized for the breakthroughs we as a radio media company have made in the industry, I’d like to once see a local newspaper (not ours) Do a story, on not only the radio gig, but the organization that fuels it, for the contributions we as an organization has made to western Idaho, Northern Utah and Southwestern Wyoming. B4 us, nobody did NASCAR Cup races on air, at least on radio. Nobody played local artists, which is why someone looks to a on-air stream over the internet, to hear what is not currently pop, nationally. But who did it here first? KTOW FM and Dixie Diesel Radio of Hagerman Idaho, that’s who. Who ever thought of broadcasting local plays or creating radio theater these days? We did and do.

With it all , there sadly has been loses. First the biggest one is Nurse GoodBody Ellie May, the hours she and I were in studio were precious. The gig ended long b4 it should have. Some day I pray God above will move her to getting back in the studio with me, and getting her on air. Likewise our own local sexpert Emme. Of course there have been adjustments but I am slowly crawling out , with acquiring KBAR AM 1230, here in Mini Cassia Idaho, and just waiting for FCC approval on station ownership to change, from who used to own it and us who do now, gives me that light from above. Remember God never gives anyone anything he doesn’t expect them to use, or blessings that he doesn’t expect them to act on. Both KDXB AM 1230 (as KBAR WILL BE CALLED) as well as KDXB FM 105.3 will be the voice of today’s Confederates , and Confederacy. More over the voice of the interstate.

But any time your the one that is a pioneer , be prepped to get hammered by those that can’t see the future only the present.

L8R Ya’ll
