The Not in my town attitude continues .

So I ventured out today, considering I had bills to pay and people to see. 15:00 hours came and I remembered this thing KMVT was throwing with the city council of Twin Falls on the Snake River Jump redox. Trust me friends there are not as many night hot spots in Twin Falls as there was before here in 1974. The attitude of nothing big here unless it has a horse and plow attached to it, will be given an open arms welcome, and a few memories of that day in 1974, of the rowdy goings on here. Many say it was bills left unpaid, naw that ain’t it, anyone thinking that is smoking a bit more of that cannabis that was here then , now.

Naw the thing was many gals that were angels before 1974 , became vixens after.

Thought about scrubbing the going to this, thinking food and watching the thing on TV but thought showing up would be a great way to at least give KMVT our standard Channel 11 salute,>but out of some byte my lip diplomacy didn’t deploy that but sat and watched and absorbed the presentations.

Some rather media big wigs, a gal from ABC, came of course I’m interested there because of them being part of Disney and Disney’s connection to their cable channel that has many stars of shows even this old Wolf watches.

Then there were the people of the several looking to earn some cred in doing the jump. Out of em all Big Ed is the one I vote for in being here if the event even happens. Anything with this much impact is going to make these farm town city council members and people a bit nervous. The crowds , the publicity. See for those that have not lived here 80 % of their lives here as I have don’t know that Twin Falls, unlike say Boise or even eastern Idaho does not want this town on the map. Much less this size of a magnifying glass. In fact many in Twin Falls would just as soon, take Twin Falls off the map. The attitude is, lets let the kids grow up, go to college somewhere else and move away, so me and the Mrs. can sit on our rocking chairs on our old farm, in peace watching that plow tied to the mule rust. And like any mule its hard to get this area to move on anything good for them. It’s like trying to get a kid to eat spinach. You can force it down all you want, and they’ll swallow it if there’s cheese on it. In this case Big Ed buying a patch of ground to land on in Jerome County, not Twin Falls. Now then, with all the scurrying I was not going to say anything, but a prompting was pushing, hey might as well lend a welcome and give hopefully get some outside media ink, for the Knytes. So a few of those looking to speak, at this meeting left, so I got up, explained who I was, and now having the honor at least for the next 24 months of being charter President(thanks for the votes) explained I was the Charter President, and that the Knytes-of-Anarchy and SAMCROM MC welcomed them to the city favoring Big Ed. Why? because for the most part ED is doing the majority of his effort on his own dime, on a bike, not some dang thing going into space, but a bike. Something with a Harley connection. Second Big Ed, is a kountry boy, of simple roots that sees this as a self advancement opportunity rather than a pure kudos economic opportunity. So I did my thing and sat down. Listened to rather long winded folks, saying how great they are , what they can do etc. If I knew this to being a serious gig, (maybe we have time) but I’d submit a jet powered 69 Charger (General Lee) and jump that canyon. Hey the General has jumped everything else, why not the Snake River? Thing is I got bored.

Now lets look at this from past efforts on our behalf and others. The big Burley boat race, brings in a ton of tourist dollars, that’s something ABC could do to wet a few appetites cover that. Then there is the Twin Falls Air Show. On the side of the Knytes, lets look at our Jamboree of all things truck, CB radio etc, in 1975 right after Evel did his jump. The Knytes brought in just over 250,000 people over 4 days, and filled the Filer Fairgrounds of Twin Falls County. The Hazzard County Nationals/DukesFest West will do twice that. Thing is big events are not welcome here, although we try, and so do others.

Okay then, needing nicotine and a wizz break, went out and in the hall was this hot blonde that I thought was from CH-6, I have always said, if you want to see eye candy doing news , you watch ch-6 out of Nampa.

But who ended up sitting next to me? Stephanie Zepelin from CH-7. She was somewhat jittery, her foot was twitching so bad I thought she’d loose her shoe. Good looking. If she’s ever looking for greener fields, HazzardAyre TV has a place for her.

So was in the hall of O'Leary Junior High the new one. Where this fact finding meeting that was little more than a press announcement and media kiss butt session, but out there was this hot blonde. Thinking as I said she was from 6 , I went over. Thought she’d run a blip, but found she’s from 11. We all know how that went. Rachel Holt. Again someone I’m keeping an eye on, she has spice. But we know how the interview of me there went. It went, but she takes it to studio, Joe Martin looks at it, see’s me in it, knowing shit’ll hit the fan with Chris, guess what? No interview. This will change mid year next year as 2015 looms larger and for and of DukesFest West.

Some asked what that is, and its really a 4 day gig, outside, to celebrate all things Dukes of Hazzard, and true southern culture. From southern food, grass roots show what ya drove car/truck/bike show. Celebs from the show, Shooter Jennings on stage for two nights the works. What we have planned will make that Canyon jump look pale by comparison. But I am getting off track. Wonder if ABC and others will cover that?

Stephanie has a foot in the door as an exclusive story, but others are welcome to do pre news ink for it if they want.

Any mile it was a big night. Nothing big decided, many thinking it would be were disappointed. HazzardAyre Radio and TV will cover it all and keep all informed. Have a big engineering meeting in the AM so need to sack out.

More in the PM Friday.

L8R Rebels,
