Big plans are the things of dreamy nights and mucho brews. Guy wants to jump a canyon, or a MC wants to build a both OTA and Streaming radio station. But then you start peeling back the covers and layers and discover, that even though the jewel looks bright on the surface, its very crusty and rusty under .
After the big introduction press conference swindle meeting of last night at O’Leary Junior high, yesterday, in winding down I began looking over things, considering on just basing the media werx here in Tweaker Flatts as its called in the REAL WORLD, and then started looking over both facilities as well as IP pipelines. In both cost and effect, Salt Lake City and surrounding areas still out numbers and outshines Idaho. Heck its even a bit warmer down there. Plus the headaches of human resources are less there as well as pickable fruit from that human resource tree. So what to do. Being elected of the Utah Charter which includes this sub charter here in Idaho, I have to help make these decisions. Thing is, for all it is, I just can’t yet say Idaho be the place, or at least Tweaker(Twin-Falls) Idaho be the place. I just can’t.
So then I get to thinking of yesterday’s meeting. Here comes such operations as ABC news, NBC,CBS and major media players, they’re going to need some serious internet and other horsepower here to get information streams going both ways. Plus streaming video and audio to that home port in NYC and Florida, and yes even HollyWierd.. If its taking this long to roll out HazzardAyre and even to get us a fiber optic feed in and out of here to give us horsepower, over 7 months with a net loss of $15k, in ad revenue to us as a station, missed FCC filings and all, will outside interests like ABC or these jumping teams to name a few going to just raise their hands and whoopie? I don’t think so. They’ll look at us and our struggles and say this podunk place just ain’t for us and move off to a more user and accessible friendly IT and so on state or place. Like Boise or Pocatello. Likewise if the city of Twin Falls and all is thinking of reaping the benefits of new influxes of commerce staying business’s both large and small strolling in, both tech as well as partially industrial, then such infrastructure needs will need to be addressed and put into gear or many outsiders from more friendly in all ways ecommerce enterprises are going to leave as fast as they came.
Now then was also thinking of DukesFest West.
The big love of the site of our 1975 edition of same, at the Twin Falls County Fairgrounds in Filer 10 miles west of Twin Falls, is diminishing rapidly.
Alternate locations are being eyed for the event. Two of which are in Utah. Now many would say that makes more sense since Utah has a more advanced infrastructure than Idaho does. True , but things Hazzard and Dukes were born on the back of rural America not urban America. However , even on that places like Idaho Falls, Pocatello, even neighboring Jerome are being looked at. Of em all I’m still looking serious at Tooele Utah for the gig. Reasons in another entry.
I had a long conference call with organization President, Kevin last night over much of this, thought of him give it 20 months see what goes, my thinking 8 months into 2014 at the most. By then car is paid, my other rigs long haul worthy and as such move.
Dig this looked over just the available office rentals in metro Utah. Dig this, for just under $200.00 to a very max of $500.00 and on the below level $50.00 a month the club can have space there with all the plush, bells and whistles, even down at Thanksgiving Point.
So I ask both Kevin and you our membership what the hell are we loosing sleep over Tweaker Flatts just on the maybe, for ? When what we need is only 300 miles away?
Any mile, heading back to bed.
Bad cold and talking cold, its ten degrees warmer in Utah.
