I was in a local store today and was asked,”are you not upset with people calling you a leech?” I replied, that I do not consider it leeching or sponging. Why? Because if everyone who owed myself, my Mom, Dad, and the gifts and loans of Mom & Dad’s Foundation paid us back, it would equal the GNP of the entire state of Idaho. More over the crap that has been thrown at me, for just trying to be kind would be repaid, Hell I’d own the entire lower half of the state of Idaho, as well as parts of northern Utah. My families legacy and history in eastern Idaho goes beyond a few kind deeds by both Mom and Dad, it is the financial gifts that have been made, many by the way of my suggestion, that has fueled and moved this state. There was once upon a time when 4 major families were the authority of the state of Idaho, Simplot,Kingston, Albertson’s, and the Montgomery’s, mainly my family. Now that golden throne was turned into a wooden chair, the fact that I have asked for some of our generosity to be returned or reclaimed I get called a leech. No, its more like pay back time.
Okay then I saw a thing on a web site, some old TV ads. One that caught both my eye’s and ears was the old Dppity Doo commercials. So I got to thinking, do they still make and sell Dippity Doo, hair styling gel? Same for V-05? I looked today at the cosmetic row at Wal-Mart, in Jerome, and saw one of those. Bt not Dippity Doo. Is it no longer available? Or just not here? Like Red Dog Beer. Once a great staple at a few bars,and a red sign at all bars of the red dog, but now no longer available, at least in Idaho, but found out back east , one can still get Red Dog. So is it that Dippity Doo, be bought elsewhere? Kinda like some TV shows. Many are seen elsewhere, but due to the very ultra conservative nature of Idaho, one can’t see them here. Same for radio. Until the outbreak of both XM/Sirius one never heard Howard Stern, here. In fact most area radio stations never dared air Stern. The objection was, don’t want to upstage or upset the MORMONS, they might boycott the advertisers of such a show so we will not air him. But of course came the BoB & Tom Show and that is OKAY!!? In closing, nope not a leech its pay back time. And I’m collecting.
