People in Boulder drive like idiots: cars bikes and scooters
Oct 17th
As I drove down a parking lane in the Sun Flower lot a girl on a light green scooter came blasting toward me nearly hitting me and two other cars in the process. She wasn’t stopping for shit and everybody yelled at her.
On the way down Folsom I was making a right turn onto Canyon and noticed a road bike in my right mirror. I was going to make the turn and then thought “ you know, this guy isn’t going to stop..he is going to keep coming and pass me on the right”….and’ surin than shit’ he did…head down, head up ass, pissed off look….fuck! I almost killed him. This happens to me about once a week in Boulder.
Then as I headed east on Canyon in the left hand turn lane following traffic, some guy behind me got into a road rage incident with another car and proceeded to screech his brakes right next to me trying to force the other guy off the road.
At 28th and Jay road with the coast clear, I made a left turn out of the left turn lane and a CRX came blasting through at about 70 mph nearly hitting me. He looked at me with one of those, what’s your problem? I started up again and a guy in a BMW SUV jumped out of his left turn lane coming from the other direction. He shot into the intersection almost hitting my car and the one behind me. He locked em up and slid sideways.
How many of us go through this shit every day here in Boulder? I know it’s Sunday but Jesus H. Christ! I like to flash my hi beams at people when they do stupid shit. Then when I get their attention, I shake my finger at them in a scolding manner. That’s better than giving them the middle finger. They feel like their 3rd grade teacher just scolded them.

DEA begin busts in Denver Boulder you are NEXT
Oct 16th
The city of Boulder thinks it is above the law and it is about to find out what a roust of city hall feels like.
“DENVER (CBS4) – Federal drug agents have busted a medical marijuana dispensary in Adams County and have charged three people accused of running the business and another who owned a warehouse where pot was allegedly being grown..”
“Our federal government, which is supposed to serve us, the people of Colorado, instead declares war on us and somehow has the recourse to go against a harmless medicinal plant,” medical marijuana attorney Robert Corry said. “We are keeping our own house in order in Colorado and then the federal government comes in and basically declares war on the government of our state.”
Well, Corry I got news form you: Some of us are glad , glad glad the DEA is busting you drug dealing dirt ball scum. As far as I’m concerned everyone who authorized these Dope dealing gangsters belong in Federal penitentiary. Why? Cause they sold drugs to children and turned a lot of our kids in to drug addicts.
For those of you who are wondering what is up with my anti drug attitude. I got started in broadcasting as an anti drug dealing crusader way back in 1987. The DEA are heroes . Thanks for doing what you do and good hunting here in Boulder.
FLASH: This morning, on Sunday Morning, on CBS, a feature on “pill mills” or pain clinics showed that this year, 2011, deaths by drug over dose surpassed death by automobiles. This is astounding. When I first reported on this topic in 1987 drunk driving deaths far exceeded drug overdoses. Drunk driving deaths have not gone down.
In 2009 I went after Dr Jacks pain clinics here in Boulder. But it was only this morning that the national news have finally done a story on drug overdose epidemic caused by pain clinics. It is now all over the country and it is legal. What have we done?

The supreme Court taking up language on B-Cast TV
Oct 15th
Now we have Educational access TV which is highly censored by the school board and de facto the city of Boulder. Of course the FCC nor the Boulder city council have any say in the Internet, this column, anything said or performed on Jann Scott Live my internet TV show.
Youtube of course censors based on this thing they call community standards. Read> if they don’t like what you say you are gone from You Tube. This happens quite a lot with You tube, but is rarely reported.
The supreme Court will be taking up a case where they will discuss whether or not you will be able to say bad words on Broadcast TV after 10pm. It will probably pass.
But we still walk on thin ice in this country when it comes to freedom of speech. There are all sorts of people, groups and group think that frown on it. Twitter, You tube and Face book are 3 powerful media outlets who control how you interact. The are all dangerous.
But I have seen enough to be wary. Especially the Hitler Youth of Social media. People like Andrew Hyde and his ilk who seek to control media. Or that Red Head writer. They drink the cool aide. meaning they are the cry baby controls.
