Church Brethren are helpful, only as long as it does not take money out of their own wallet

Its the Holiday Hangover Monday, but got one radio show out on behalf of WyldAyre and now in production for this evenings, HazzardAyre Radio episode, and in that I was going to pitch an idea at one of our Priesthood and such members yesterday, but he was missing, but talking to the same LDS Brother, last Wednesday when he and two counselors were in the Church clerks office, were counting the kach-ing and bragging and one not so much about their individual portfolios and so I piped up, and said something along the line of how about discounting some store space downtown next to Suds that he currently needs to rent , but for me at a discount. You'dve thought I was asking for his daughters hand in gettin hitched. No no discount , no extension of aid nothing. Which is about par for the course. Now here's a quick piece from another LDS Brother. Dave, who dropped by mid month November , knew I was hurtin and bummed me $20.00. I really did not need it , tried to give it back but reluctantly accepted. Now Dave doesn't make tons of dollars, most months because of his domestic situation and all, he has very shallow pockets, but he gave to the cause. Yet Mr. City Drug, owner couldn't reduce his monthly rent space price for HazzardAyre Radio, Who do you want to trust your church information to? I've nearl came to the conclusion that Trust from the Church to me must be earned, I trust our Bishop, I trust my Home teacher, both of them, but I don't Trust many others. There's one who is one of the higher ups in our ward, who I made the mistake of pursuing until I got word she was under age, how the heck was I to know? But even though he says peace has been made, despite what gospel teaching he learns and teaches himself once in awhile, he DON'T FORGIVE ME. He says he do, I know he don't. Now not to add insult to injury, but if your going to display, best be ready to play. But there's one hot honey that is in both my Sunday school class as well as the Ward. Not saying I'd lap that up like warm milk in a bowl, but she's got the finest set of legs and a package to match. She appears she's something of Hispanic ethnic background, but she do look good. Bottom line if you ain't got it to deliver , don't put it on display. 
Bottom line both HazzardAyre/WyldAyre Radio is poised for some heavy duty kick butt expansion and ignition in 2016 and the hunt is on for a suitable location to house it.

What I give away, and the Deadly Resolutions for 2016

So I smell like #90 Octane, I work and own a shop and tow service. My time is not mine, its the idiots that scurry across I-80 crossing by Evanston Wyoming here, plus Mother nature freezing everything so cold that one can just barely stand it and not for very long. But this brings me to quite a few of my problems in the shop. Now my partner is as cool as can be, he knows more than most have never learned, and the rest I leave to Nate. But last night there were a few there tooling on this piece of dung Honda car, over a thermostat. Now Rick told em what to get, but after the ordeal of taking one out and then reinstalling, another the bad noises and voices they said about Rick and all, I bit my tung, and went into my office. Rick was working a bit on LexiBelle, but I wanted to tell the northern frozen nerds and Poindexters, They are in our shop, using our tools, using our electricity, Gas to heat the place, water and all, and being disrespectful to Rick and I , well that's soon coming to a stop, if I'm going to be in this shop deal. There's going to be rules. Want to work in our shop? Except for a very select few, you must pay at least $50.00 just to be in the shop doing your own thing, especially if your using our tools and resources. There will be at least Rick, Myself or an MC member present in the shop at all times. If we leave, they leave, until one of us returns. This free thing has to end. The shop and tow service we have is a business, not a tinker shop. If your there doing or assisting on a job we are doing that's fine if not you pay to be there. 
Now then, the last rule, and it just has to be, at least 3 days, of the week and one day out of the weekend, will, repeat BE FOR ME  to work on my rides, LexiBelle, LiL Wolf, and the Cruiser. As well as the General JaXson. JaXson is spelled that way in honor of Jax Teller of SOA fame.  The final rule, outside of Rick, do not , absolutely do not go into MY OFFICE at the shop unless I'm there. I noticed my jump box had been used without plugging it back in. 
This stuff of letting everybody in my shop, to do everything and anything they want without contributing to the financial welfare of the shop is bullstuff and can't continue. 
Now my Deadly Resolutions;
Ride more, this summer, fly more this summer , rebuild my trucks and cars, and rounding that up find some gal to occupy my domicile with me. I know that Jesus and Heavenly Father doesn't dig cohabitation of male female before marriage, however since the real squeel of wedded blues has not came into my world for a long time, up until my trip over Christmas, to Soda Springs, Herman hasn't gotten wet. And for this high octane canine, no nukie is not good. That's my short list of Deadly Resolutions, the long list in another installment here. 
Gotta get ready for church. But when I get insulted, and Rick's honor is disrespected by people we have held the door open for and all to fix their rides yet mine just sit, bullsbreath. They opened mouth and inserted foot, and if they want to occupy our shop, and use our tools, then they can pay. $50.00 a session is not asking too much, but it offsets the costs of extra electricity, gas for heat, and all. So hey wanna play, you pay.

Economic improvement, if it can happen in Idaho, could it happen in Evanston Wyoming?

In less that 10 years Mini Cassia, aka Burley, Rupert, Heyburn , and Paul Idaho, has began a real turn around in its business climate. Young's/Bonanza Motors is expanding, to a state of the art vehicle retail firm, typical agri- based business's are locating there and even the Knytes are eye balling the area once again, but the question is, for all this visionary improvement going on , on the near border of Idaho/Utah could the same thing occur on the border of Utah/Wyoming, mainly Evanston Wyoming? I say it could, but all the right people need to be on board and those who shun anything out of the box as far as companies or venture investment execs need to quit thumbing their noses and open their arms. The condition simply says, rather than strangulate something new and continue to put balls and chains on the heels and ankles of those busting hump in inject new industries, local Government and yes even religious leaders need to climb off the backs and loosen the chains that bind of those looking to create new enterprises. Just because does not blow their noses in the same hanky you do, does not mean that the other person, has cooties. The other person just might have a key idea, or giving the bird to our Utah neighbors, when their financial prowess not more than 80 miles away might just be the thing we in Wyoming and most importantly Evanston could use and should take advantage of. 
When the Knytes just a month and year ago, came to Evanston despite a mess of junk, looks at a bikers bar, radio/tv station, and even a custom bike shop were things that we as a club looked down upon. Okay maybe the marketing was a bit fowl, considering putting the hottest lady eye candy by some rides and then put that , not only on a website, but on regional and even domestic TV venues. But hey we were looked at as if we some sort of evil porn company. But hey we are not giving up. Expansion on Hazzard County Choppers, Bob Detailing, Rowleys Garage, Highway Hooker Toewing is already in view and nearly on target, KKOD FM/HazzardAyre Radio has just received its conditional FCC license, and will be the ONLY FM radio station, licensed in EVANSTON, and to EVANSTON. HazzardAyre TV is on target, for construction and will be on the bottom floor of the old City Hall building on Harrison here in Evanston, while KKOD FM/HazzardAyre Radio will be on the top floor. Question ? Why is it just us that can see the silver in amongst the dark gray clouds that hang over Southwest Wyoming? Oh and the question of what about the Reaper Club? Look for that in the fall of 2017. But and its a big BUTT 
    why is it that only southern Idaho got the message and we as an economic driver being resisted? The answer Sunday Afternoon. HazzardAyre Radio will be on air Sunday night and WyldAyre Radio Monday night into Tuesday morning.

Hazzard County Christmas's and the blind boy whose eyes were opened

Hazzard County Christmas' are different from many in other locations throughout our nation as well as the world. I can remember the Christmas's we had in Hazzard Idaho. First it usually snowed so bad nobody or nothing was getting up our old country road, no matter what. Except a horse cars, trucks and even some tractors didn't make it all the way up, to the house. So we settled in and made good with what we had. The thing we had an abundance of in our home was love, love for each other, love of our home and yes love for and of our southern heritage and roots. But even earlier in my life at Christmas, there was two stories the house was a 1960's/70's era split level which meant a Christmas tree downstairs, and one upstairs. Clothes and electronic gifts were upstairs, car parts, bike parts, and such were downstairs. Most of the kids on our block, would come over to our house to see what I got and play, with most of them, since many of those kids didn't have as much or the swell toys I had. Then there was the girl across the street, named Vicky, who always wanted to come over and smooch, with some rather cheap lipstick and such, dang wish I would have known then what I learned later, could have had one helluva party. But we had monumentious Christmas's and I was lucky most of all for my Mom and Dad, not for the toys, and that but for them, we had love and loyalty in our family, and that goes a long way. 
I spent most of this holiday crying, then I pulled on my drawers very early Christmas Day, and treked over to Grace Idaho and spent most of the day with my kin folks, mostly cousin Claude and his wife,. Ate so dang much I could burst, got home in time to see online that our member Nate, is getting hitched. He kept saying no he wasn't but hey pics don't lie,
 Don't want to say I told you so Nate, but, I told you so. I knew you were headed for the alter way last May. Watched one of the Trek movies and a Shrek movie, ate some pudding. So HazzardAyre isn't on but will be come Saturday evening, as well as WyldAyre on Sunday morning. 
Okay the blind boy that finally saw the light. This was told me by a actor friend in 2005. See there was this little boy in an urban neighborhood, as he pulled his little red wagon with near new born puppies in it a Mormon Bishop, stopped him and was happy to see the sign on the side that said FREE MORMON PUPPIES!! A few weeks later the same boy pulling the same little red wagon, with the same puppies was stopped by the Mormon Bishop who questioned the boy as to the meaning of his new sign, for now it read, FREE Baptist Puppies, the boy replied ah yes Bishop, but last week the puppies eyes had not yet opened. 
Merry Christmas to the rest of you, I'm headed to bed, see you tonight on the radio.

The 4%ntrs Evanston Wyoming radio is not just over the air, its us at HazzardAyre where quality matters.

Hey its Christmas Day, a day to spend with family and loved ones, for me in three years I'll spend my Christmas with my beloved LexiBelle massaging her body, and caressing her every curve, no I'm not talking a human female, but LexiBelle, my sweet Tow truck. Nothing on the planet is as dear to me as she is. 
The message our Bishop delivered to me when he was delivering the oranges, something I been craving really bad, since Wal-Mart and Smiths haven't had a decent orange in their stores here for months. But the Bishop says, that the reluctance on the part of Cook Brothers Broadcasting of Evanston was due to some of my racy blogs, but isn't them that asks the question, Do you remember the wild life? You'd think that the combination of a person who's on air handle is AyreWolf, and a station that considers itself as the Big dog of Evanston radio would be complimentry. It is until you realize the real deal, is I'm not churchy enough. They don't say that and I love my Bishop and the ward I'm in, but see I'm not an Elder plaque carrying temple recommended blue book thumping church member. It is better for them to ignore me, than be boycotted by advertisers. In reality me being on their station would increase their dull ratings and thus sales. Now I can't prove this, so a complaint to say the FCC for equal rights, or even discrimination wont fly here, but we all know what happened. they saw someone with horsepower and that would rock the station, and thus said no way . But its Discrimination none the less. Even though the Church people here and others say they want what we deliver on HazzardAyre and WyldAyre Radio online over the air. All this does is makes me even more determined to bury KNYN and its sister station, and push the idea of another station here. Oh and yes I can license it in another town, after all Cook Broadcasting is licensed to Lyman/Fort Bridger Wyoming not Evanston. The difference here is Cook is going to loose their station in Soda Springs Idaho, KBRV, reasons vary but the main one is in that part of Idaho, the Sant's, Rheads, and yes even Roholts control the community and county. Add to that the Idaho Attorney General, is a kin folk. Bad thing for Cook broadcasting to step on the wolf's tail, because this Wolf bytes. I'm part of Evanston that's the 4 percenters. The 4 Percenters are the ones that are fence post sitting LDS members, hit church in the morning or afternoon, and the bar after. The 4%ers are the ones that are anti-establishment, anti conformists, and the ones most likely to tune into me either online or over the air. Here at HazzardAyre and WyldAyre Radio, its not just jump and air like KNYN and other stations. Ours takes hours if not days to produce, selecting the finest in music, humor, news and things of interest, especially to the trucker/biker community, and of course the southern rebel preservationist in everybody that cheered when the General Lee jumped a ditch or river. For us at HazzardAyre/WyldAyre Radio its quality not mass production. You wont find an empty chair in our studio while we're on the air, or promising things that we can't or wont deliver, like building websites, like some do. Our listeners are the 4%ers, and so is HazzardAyre/WyldAyre Radio. www.livestream.com/hazzardayre and www.livestream.com/wyldayreradio

Waylon Jennings Waiting on Down The Line ( Rare)

Wednesday, December 23, 2015

Been a long night and what's going on with the Disney Channel?

Last night was long, 13 slideoffs, two wrecks, and for me its time to rest. So its soon to bed.
I have been watching the Disney Channel for nearly 7 years now. I started watching the Disney Channel because there was a plan with one of our broadcast units going to being a Radio Disney Station, that was back in 2012. At first it was Wizards of Waverly Place that introduced me to Selena Gomez, then came Shake it Up that I thought was about the hottest teen show on tv, which was also the basis of our idea of doing a gig called Shake-it-up Idaho. Then came Jessie, then Austin and Ally, then Good luck Charlie and then rounding it up Dog with a Blog. Of course there was the movies, Radio Rebel, which we reversed for a host and called it Rebel Radio, that featured Debby Ryan, aka Jessie. Sarah Hyland did the movie Geek Charming now doing a bit part in the series on Fox called Modern Family. Now I hear once again that Disney is axing Austin and Ally. Which begs the question, What the hell is going on at the Disney Channel? Why are the cancelling all their money making series', and distancing their mid teen and teen viewers? Does Disney now think they are shielded from revenue earnings just because they ran up the pole the latest edition of Star Wars The Force Awakenes? Sure it was another feather in Disney's cap, but JJ Abrams blew that. It's not Star Wars,  its simply the same thing JJ did with Star Trek, trying to recreate an ancient series, with new actors filling in for old characters, with old plot lines, like Into Darkness was a redoux of The Wrath of Kahn. But I'm getting off subject here. Why is Disney blowing off their best properties and inventories for what? Disney is so needing in inventory they even brought back Hannah Montana. More research needs to be done. Now for the final here, January 4th will be the season finale of all things HazzardAyre, as we are moving the studios and all to Ogden Utah and will therefore be off the air, LIVE anyway until March 1st or so. The shop and all that will remain in Evanston, but there needs to be more on air people on HazzardAyre and that kind of talent is just not available in Evanston, so we're moving it. 
Hazzard County Tymez will be here, but the radio gig is relocating.
If you dig HazzardAyre you can tune into our archives shows at www.livestream.com/hazzardayre . 
Time for sleep see all on the radio around 12 noon.

HazzardAyre Radio is a surviver

In the years that I have been in radio and the media, I have seen imported and recorded and syndicated programs come and go. Some go because the host or main joc wants too much money to continue, some go because sponsorships go lame and some go because the content goes sour. Many others go because ratings went belly up, but its usually that the main joc gave up the gas, too much work, or something. However I can and do proudly say that HazzardAyre Radio, in one form or the other and under one or more titles, has endured from a silly 5 watt station on Spurlock Drive in Layton Utah at the tail end of the 1960's to 1975 when we went on with Long Haul Trucker Radio to 1989 one year before the Dukes came on with Dixie Diesel Trucker Radio, then emerging as a rising Pheenix in 2011 as it is now HazzardAyre Radio remains as it has always been the one radio show, be it LIVE, recorded, syndicated, the fight the system kick ass all things southern heritage and culture and as well as all things military flight, radio. Long before there was a Howard Stern and after WolfMan Jack, I was on air doing what censors crapped their jeans over.  Originally called HotWheels Radio aired then by no defunct radio station KNAK out of Utah, until the fateful day of relocation and reconstruction via my parents to Idaho. Then as it always is, and continues to be What now is HazzardAyre came on the air as Long Haul Trucker Radio. The only radio show west of the Mississippi with a overnight over the road truckers based radio show. in 1983 shortly after my Mom passed away, we fired up by we I mean, the RoadMasters Truckers Association, what was called Highway Hooker Radio, the only show on radio for those who tow, the only station in the nation dedicated to those trying to make and keep a buck driving a tow truck. Highway Hooker Radio still lives as one of the spin off sides of HazzardAyre Radio, www.livestream.com/highwayhookerradio , but the real magic happened in late 1985, a former joc from my days at the original KLIX AM 1310, out of Twin Falls Idaho and I got together and brought forth a thing we called Dixie Diesel Trucker Radio, trucker radio done Hazzard County style. While not perfected and my did we have a blast getting it there, Dixie Diesel Radio got its name after my light duty diesel repair shop that I named after one I saw going to the SEMA convention in Lost Wages Nevada the tiny truck service shop and tow service in Saint George Utah, called simply Dixie diesel service and towing. I did some rework on that handle, and in 1990 I opened the Dixie Diesel Shop. On Broadway Avenue in Blackfoot Idaho, next to the Artic Circle. A year later circumstances demanded my relocation to Murry Utah, where I got together with a fiesty Itallian named Tony Pistone , and his bright and nearly as radical as I , Tommy. Tommy and I one day, were cruising in a 82 Chevy ton and a half tow truck, when Tommy said I didn't customize a rig or ride, I Cooter-Ized it. Shortly after I opened Cooter's Kustmz. In West Valley Utah. Shortly after I took a time out away from my lady Janice, and was looking for other pastures, Remember cousin Bud was still in charge of the Montgomery Foundation, so it was important to be near him. So then I took a trip to Price Utah, I had heard that radio station KOAL AM there was running both Overdrive Trucker News and the Overdrive Countdown, plus Interstate Radio. Well a bit of Hazzard shuck and Jive, and I reopened Dixie Diesel Radio for 3 hours a week on weekends, it became THEIR number one radio show on weekends . I had a distaste for any kind of authority and as such the feller who managed KOAL and I decided it was time for me to bag it,. So In the process , The radio network dedicated to truckers called Interstate Trucker Radio Network was in bankruptcy.  So I did some talking with the RoadMasters as well as the Hazzard Knytes, and in 1995 we bought ITRN, and reformed it as the Dixie Diesel Trucker Radio Network. which ran until 2006 even here in dear sweet Evanston, Wyoming, I did the on air chores, Tammy Hunt did the ad sales and promotion and hiring, until her and her ah guy pal got into a mess over nose candy, here, so I moved to Burley, Idaho. Shortly after so did did she. Some time I'll tell you that one. But radio was on hold, Tammy had to put up the radio gear for a bond to get out of the can, so it sat here. Right down to my soiled undershorts. By mid year 2007 Tammy had left, I got a bullshit con offer to sell ad time for then TV station KPIF, with the idea, of the Knytes buying KPIF, but that didn't happen, the Korean lady who owned that station did not want to sell the station to a trucker/mc/air organization. By late 2007, I caught a path through Pocatello Idaho's cable access channel Vision 12. I started with one half hour show and ended up with 4 , 2, hour a day shows. Then I saw an ad for a flunkie job in Mountain Home Idaho, at a soon to be built, in Hammett Idaho. So I moved to Glenns Ferry Idaho. Over time equipment was purchased through a sale of some journal entries to a cat named Kurt Sutter, who you know as the creator of Sons of Anarchy. In mid year 2008, the Knytes decided to follow suit, and created an outlaw truckers group, called the Knytes-of-Anarchy. However everybody we came assumed to being a MC rather than a TC(Trucker Club). Early 2009 the cat that owned the place I resided in Glenn's Ferry went bankrupt, and due to a turf war, there I decided to move to Gooding. Shortly thereafter with the help of the second female ever to have membership with voting rights Mirinda, Dixie Diesel and AyreWolf FM went on the air. I finally got in with a crooked realtor with an office space for rent, and what was KTOW FM went on the air there. Featuring both Dixie Diesel, Hazzard County, AyreWolf and yes even SAMCRO Radio. Back then Highway Hooker Radio was the main show. by early 2010, due to some serious bull involving the United States Postal Service of Gooding Idaho. My radio gig was off but only sleeping. After not seeing SOA for one season, I caught light of a pad in Buhl Idaho, and through a long process, moved to Buhl. Before I go on, I must say this, both my lady producers I had in Gooding could never be either replaced or duplicated. Both Emme and Erin, did their jobs with precision. The crooked Realtor never really figured out what he lost until two years after. Strickland Realty pulled the plug that could have made him serious cash, but the old saying you can lead the mule to water but ya'll can't make it drink. By late year 2010 I was sleeping one night after I finally had recovered some of my radio gear, and was zapped in the middle of the night by Heavenly Father, with not only the title of the radio gig and network but how to construct it. By late year 2011, I had launched the published version of HazzardAyre News, and found the people and gathered them together in Burley and on February 3rd 2012, HazzardAyre Radio launched and nobody has looked back since. 
HazzardAyre Radio simply does it right, does it without fear of the politically correct and fights the system at every turn. 
Its ironic, it is being predicted that on our anniversary this year, that the near finished website and a total full gallon memorial site for all things Hazzard County, all things military aviation, all things bike and biker and yes what we started as both trucker and tow trucker. No matter what though, HazzardAyre has never gave up, nor has the club ever gave up on HazzardAyre. www.livestream.com/hazzardayre

CBS took a vacation this week and we are getting ready for the relaunch of HazzardAyre Radio on satellite


Seems as though CBS TV took the week off, last week, in that they programmed Holiday episodes of the Big Bang Theory, for the season, that were ran 4 years and 2 years ago respectfully. Can't Understand it, you'd think that CBS would be polishing Big Bang Theory and upgrading the series, considering the Big Bang Theory is the only series CBS has that keeping them in the ratings even being watched at all. Recently when I was shopping for ad time for HazzardAyre Radio, I looked at both the local CBS station based out of Utah, both local and network inventory. What I came away with was there wasn't nothing or very little I wanted to buy. However I am shopping Antenna TV that is hosted by KSTU FOX 13 out of Utah, as well KMTU a side channel of KUTV2(the CBS station that runs old rerun TV). CBS is hurting, its like though , our local cable company here. If you ask both of them they say they're fine, but if you start scratching under the skins, you find there's some serious problems in bad staffing, programming and other pieces. Our Local cable system of Evanston Wyoming here is a company called AllWest. AllWest is a fair company, but they have my billing all messed up, they claim I owe just under $800.00 yet I have been payng nearly $400.00 a month for the first 4 months I had the service, just under $500.00 that they said would bring up to date, and not a month after they claimed I owed more than I was behind. How does that Happen. Either some cash was pocketed, at their office, that I don't buy since Ruth that shoe horned the Evanston office ran it like a Swiss watch. Ever since she left , the Evanston office really needs some rebuild and so does their billing department. If I didn't need AllWest' bandwidth for HazzardAyre Radio, I'd drop AllWest in a Hazzard County second. Which brings me to the final, as of February 1st, 2016, HazzardAyre Radio will be moving our western Wyoming and all to Ogden Utah. Call it getting a much bigger pipeline to move HazzardAyre Radio and its channels through with a bit more finesse . No I'm not moving nor is the shop or that, that remains in Evanston, but there needs to be more than just me in the studio, and since that's not here or people willing to , here in Evanston, so I and the MC voted and decided move the radio gig back to Utah. It's not that AllWest couldn't be more or making more money, from local ad insertion like what Comcast Spotlight Advertising does, or by providing local programming available like Cable One does in Pocatello, I offered our expert abilities there, but got ignored. But like CBS , AllWest reminds me of a alcoholic , in that they only will reach for help when they reach the absolute bottom. There are three Dish Network dealers here in Evanston, does that tell you anything about how satisfied people in Evanston are with their cable TV provider? More L8R Headed for the shop.

Just once I or the MC here would love to get a thank you, and some people should keep their mouths shut unless they know the whole story.

First of all got criticized overnight on air about my fascination or hankering of women in nylons . Sure some say its perverted that I would rather dive into and whiff a womans toes in nylon hose than lapping up the aroma of a flower garden, don't ask me why, shit if I knew I'd be one of them Fizzikeeatrists, not a tow truck owner operator/crop duster pilot, radio person. I just like how they feel and look on a lady's legs. Its like chrome wheels on a truck, don't make the truck really run better , but the chromies make that truck look spiffy, same with nylons on legs. Okay then this points us to a situation tother night at Jodies Cafe here in Evanston. This one seat cover named Brittney that sniffed around the MC here when she thought she could get in on the bottom floor of us revamping Lotty's Bar here. We picked another location, but more money has to be coming into the MC long before that happens. Any mile, this Brittney came over with Mom's permission, on a recommend by her mom who works at a somewhat discount smoke chew store here. For about a month she was here everyday, I explained to her that the radio gig came first, as well as doing up some promo photography for the website to promote the radio gig. I told her the only wardrobe requirement was nylons of some type. As all things Hazzard County are leggy, forget about my hankering. So she did once, in some rather green loud ones. But never got on air. She would never sit up in the chair and do an hours worth of radio. Then there was a morning I got up, went to Jodies, for breakfast, to meet up with a photographer, from Cokeville Wyoming. But afterwerds never heard from Brittney nor nothing, even when we had her pay check sitting right here on my counter, but old Britt, could sure tell people how bad I was , that we didn't pay, ah, I'm not going to hunt you down, when pay checks are here you come get it or it goes back via snail mail to the MC(Knytes-of-Dixie) . Britt even told one by the name of Becky of which both of them worked at this Porn store here, how bad I was. Now Becky wasn't too bad on the eyes and gave some time, could have developed into a damn good on air team, which leads into my last subject here. It doesn't matter if its photography for the website that'll carry the radio shows channels, or giving a bit of a spotlight to the shop, or tow service or the club. I know there are some damn sharp women in this town, but here's the clincher, just like Twin Falls, Hazzard or any of our sub charter towns of the club, when we start a promotion project not only do we pay better than a month at McDonalds, but people who never knew of much less cared about Evanston or the immediate area, finally see the majesty of Evanston, how natural and pretty it is especially in the mornings, or the tiny deer parading around the snow looking for something to eat, or when we are looking to host an event like a rally or truck show, but does anyone of these people ever come around and say , "hey Pat , thanks for what your doing, maybe I'll buy a months worth of advertising on your radio channel. " Or do I ever hear from City Hall, from somebody there, coming to see me about the good we as a club are doing, but my let one disgruntled customer beller to a city official, and the PD can find me then. But just once it'd be nice to get a thank you, either myself or the MC, for that matter it'd be nice for some chicadee to show up in her stockings and say "okay, I'll be your local model, or I'd like to sit in with you on your radio shows." Just once. There's more going on here than just a garage and online radio station.
We are breathing life back into a near death village. Where we go everything grows.

Yes Sally there is a nation just as ours between Los Angeles and New York City.

Seems as everyday as I deal with vendors parts suppliers and even lending companies it seems as though all too many forget there's a nation between Los Angeles California and NYC New York. Example been working with this cat in California named Dom, he said he'd send some paper work to me to get me some financing. Outside of the fact of a 585 credit score, due too many partners, in business and a few engagement charge offs, never have went bankrupt, never lost it all, and most importantly never have went completely went out of business, still Highway Hooker Toewing for 38 years owned and operated by me, and does more business on my own than just about any towing service in the Mountain west. That is until I moved to Evanston, Wyoming. I do okay, but to get some new equipment and enable a one payment a month in a debt consolidation operating capital loan, rather than having to pay all too many, that are getting antsy, but that paper work was supposed to be here nearly two weeks ago, yet every day I go to the mail box, no paper work. Now If I was in some major city, knocking down 50 calls a day, I can bet your next tank of diesel that, I'd have that paper work, and the check in the mail. But because we're not a big fleet in a big city with multiple calls a day, yet Highway Hooker Toewing, knocking down calls from our listing on Yelp, and Google plus getting calls from everyone from AllState Motor Club, to AAA to Quest, and Honk, despite being in competition with 9 others here in a population of 13,000 in city to near 20,000 area and county wide, we do sorta okay. Imagine what we as a company could do with a good rollback, and upgrade on the equipment we have? Which is why I got the attention of Dom, thinking, if I got a loan through him, paid it off in a short period, and demonstrated our credit worthyness that come mid summer go to Dom to finance a newer truck with a newer rollback. But because we are small, we get brushed aside. But it's not just that and the only real old fashion speed shop between Salt Lake City and Rock Springs, even HazzardAyre Radio gets ignored . Oh sure people flock around the Facebook pages, United Confederate States of America, Hazzard County Chamber of Commerce, and Hazzard County Tymes, its flat ridiculous . So hey big city fellers and all there is a place and places between California and NyC. Its called America and my part of America is Wyoming.

Snow can be your friend too, one chapter is near its end yet another soon will be

I woke up yesterday at just shy of 09:00 hours when I got a ringing in my ears that just did not go away, so I laid back down thinking it'd go away by church time, but nope. i hand the blooming ringing and trying to swallow, that just would not give me any relief. So I figured it is Sunday, even Heavenly Father took a day off, so I figured I could grab some grub, lay back down and get up by around 21:00 to run down to the shop. I got up and was so dang dizzy I hurled until all I could taste was bile, took my Nexium, and watched one of the Star Trek movies, the latest ones from JJ Abrams . Was going to do radio, but that damn ringing and muffled sound in my ears prevented that. I think I caught an upper respitory infection from one of the guys that hang around the shop. For me I don't do the sniffle thing I usually just get a bad ear infection, which I did. That and the high blood preasure that I've been under with the shop and all, been getting all these promises of money to help or do the past months rent. I don't mind contributing, but outside of twice, no contribution what so ever. I don't make that much each month, so that's why I enlisted a partner. If I could've done it all myself I'd do it all myself. Which is making me think , do I need to be? According to a few, its against Wyoming law to run a towing service from ones home, yet I can nearly count on one hand at least two maybe three here in Evanston, two out of Lyman, although there is no one in Fort Bridger and since I've been getting quite a few calls from Fort Bridger, makes me think, maybe I need to go sniff around there and see what's available there. I'm not saying that its quitting time at Hazzard County Choppers, but I am thinking it may be time for a push back and evaluate. Only if one customer pays his transmission conversion bill do we keep open, or at least a few local donations of those who say their friends.
My guess, it's going to be, move my equipment from the shop, here to my home, and look around to see what may or may not be available to determine if I remain in Evansgone or not. Twin Falls Idaho even Blackfoot Idaho looks good right now. I really wanted to go to church this Sunday, with the before Christmas services, but I just was too dang ill to do so. Maybe next week. Next month is really going to be a struggle, but if its cable/internet versus shop rent it'll be shop rent at least my half of it, depending on what happens today and the next couple of weeks, but its not going to be just me . 
Keep it tween the ditches.

Towing people are not as united or together as one would believe, thank goodness for Toew Bros.

Add caption
If you look at press clips, and postings on say Facebook, you'd think that everybody in the business gets united when there's a fellow toewer or the entire area towing community is going to be effected by some legislative or other invader. Its always a great idea, as long as it whatever it is, DOES NOT COST THEM MONEY out of their POCKET. If it does the industry is not as united as one would think. Oh sure getting together at a tow show, or a WreckMaster class is one thing, but an area like say Rock Springs Wyoming, where one of our prospective members is located that's getting pushed out of the way by some big boy with deep pockets from Utah. So you throw up an idea, ban together pass the bucket around, get $100.00 a piece to throw in and do up some media blitz to educate politicians and policy makers that this is not a good idea. This also was the case, a year or so ago. AllState Insurance joined together with one of the big nationwide towing organizations and produced a 20 second ad on the idea of moving over so we don't get ran over out there doing our jobs. So what did the Toew Bro's do? We grabbed that 20 second PSA AD, and contracted with KSL TV, but we also sought a bit of financial help from the area toewers in Utah. Guess what a few did, in as much as we ran the ads for 6 months. So getting back to Wyoming, we could have put this together with a sub ad for the outside turf invaders dropping in on Rock Springs and Green River Wyoming, so our prospect member got in touch with a few over there, and no givers. Maybe Shawn can throw in $100.00 as I will, and the Toew Bro's can make up the difference. 
Next time you read on Facebook or elsewhere that all the toewers unite on a cause, don't believe it. Especially if the whatever it is cause COSTS THEM MONEY.

Is it soup yet? Depends on who you talk to, we may be down but not out there still is HazzardAyre


There are many people who say they are Christians but when pressed are sitting on the fence. They believe in a higher power or entity but they don't have faith in his abilities, or power or love for us his servant children. It's sad really, sure there are times when we feel that we are powerless, over whelmed and just pushed against the wall, but when we put the problem in his hands and say , " Jesus take the wheel". that's when miracles do happen or at least we get guidance as to what to do. Example the gig of the shop, Rick and I, I know things are right at the burning bush right now, but I have faith that Heavenly Father and/or his son Jesus Christ, will give us the ability to overcome this, whether that is Dom in California financing us to the tune of $10k, or some yet unknown answer, if its to be, Jesus will make it happen. God does not give us things he doesn't want them to use, for Rick, its being able to turn a wrench, for me I have three skills, the ability to fly or be a pilot, tow and being on radio and/or TV. God also will not give us too much to bare, even though it may be that it seems like it is. It's also known by we who trust in God, that when one door closes another opens. Last year close to this time, my little service truck was down, had an asshole property manager, throwing my ass out of a tin can trailer, in the middle of the month. Add to that NGL unplugged me just for complimenting a front counter sales girl and the company she worked for. She took it wrong as an insult, so no Internet. I was still trying to get my VA and SSI money flowing in the right direction, radio station gear was about to get tossed, and needed my car. Yet, I got help from our church, got a ride to fetch the Subaru, got my radio gear back and was able to get some rental help from two Wards. The sweet lady who manages our complex pushed the app through and by late January, I had and still have a good nice very compfortable place to live. When I was faced with another financial crisis, here cam Uinta County Housing, lowered my rent, and I'm not doing too bad. Sure we might have or at least I might have to reduce my overhead a bit by finding less expensive quarters for HCC/Highway Hooker Toewing(mis-spelled on purpose) but by the end of the day, I also know I have this great gig called HazzardAyre(air) Radio. the mixing of Dukes of Hazzard and aviation(warbird) radio into one package. Worked solid, that brings in $500.00 or near there a month most months and raises during the summer months to nearly, $3,000.00 a month, of which I pocket $1,000.00 of and the two halves of the MC pocket the other two k . That's one of the reasons I'm going to Dom, for financing, as to not so much raise the income level for the tow service, but to elevate the inflow of cash to our stash, for HazzardAyre. If a few here of my crew would sell ad time on HazzardAyre, then we as an enterprise could be knocking on at least $10k a month. But finding people willing to waste some shoe leather and sell ad time for HazzardAyre is tough. So is it soup yet? Not exactly, and it depends on who you talk to, but at the end of the day the club and you still Have, HazzardAyre Radio, www.livestream.com/hazzardayre
