Gordon and Grace Gamm play into Hands of Evil Empire : Jann Scotts Journal

Oh No…. Gamms Fund the Dairy
Every Time somebody donates money to the Dairy Center for Performing Arts it pisses me off to no end. Why ? Well, it is not because I am anti arts… on the contrary.. I am an artist; writer,Actor, photographer, designer, and film maker…. so I am not against the arts. Oh really.., well then Jann what is it ? Pray tell.
OK here goes again for the umteenth time incase you just moved to Boulder.
When the Dairy Center was first built and opened in the mid 90’s there was a component that was Key. It was the addition of the South East wing of the Building which cost $300,000 of my money. My Comcast dollars. Comcast Built an entire TV studio called studio 54. Then Comcast kicked in another $450,000 of my Comcast money to finance the operation of a local Public access TV Channel for an entire year. Every year Comcast gave you $300,000 to operate this local access channel for one year on into infinity.
It was state of the Art and won awards and honorable mentions all across the country… Then something horrible happened. The board of public access changed. They had no idea what they were doing. The censorship started. First all of the art was censored, then all of the programming and performance was censored. Then the city got involved and censored even more.
Before it was over the city shut the channel down and cut a deal with Crocs who opened the Boedecker Theater which the Dairy Center has total control over… So the people involved in ruining public access TV in Boulder are Richard Polk and Sue Deans dairy power couple old farts. Macon Cowles and his wife who are a couple of Commie fascist who need to control everything. The sister broads , Robin Beeck, who now run BIFF but once controlled the channel. In the end they stole Channel 54s premier event and turned it into their private money maker. The guys who started Digital Arts also led the board for years , but made such a mess of it , they opened their own shop.. Bruce Borowsky. The city then hired a guy from California named Tony Perri to run things..He imploded after a series of missteps and moved back to the beach to make surfing dog videos. Then Alan Ohashi took over and he lost his ass and the whole thing shut down… where it remains to this day. Dark as night. Channel 54 as black as a Nazi SS Uniform... a city staffer recently told me “they never want to go through that again nor have the council involved even remotely with public access. ” Crystal Gray, former Mayor told me ” the council who interfered had absolutely no concept of what public access tv was… they were the wrong people at the wrong time”
Public access channel 54 shut down by corrupt city officials and their goons. So when suckers like Gordon and Grace Gamm step up and drop a cool million on this scandalous Dairy Center for performing arts, I just want to pass out… They are adding to the right winged agenda of the corrupt cabal who suppress freedom of Speech in Boulder. The Dairy shut down true video and digital art in Boulder.
Yep,they tried to shut me up…. but Comcast hired me immediately to broadcast on their state wide Local origination channel. Then the School district put my shows on their channel BV-22 where I can be seen nightly at 9:00pm. That has been going on since November 2007 when the city put Nazi SS troops in charge of free speech and turned channel 54 dark.
So there
from phony free speech Boulder

Tech Star Brad Feld ends up In Boulder ER with blood clot: Jann Scotts Journal
Dec 13th
>Boulders Brad Feld the Tec Star multi millionaire is reporting on his blog, Feld Thoughts that he ended up in the Boulder emergency room last night with a blood clot in his leg.
Blood clots are very dangerous and often not caught. They can make their way to either the heart or the brain or clog a blood vessel someplace and cause catastrophic damage. They lead to strokes and heart attacks
They are often fatal. This is a near miss for Feld who is reportedly resting at home taking blood thinners.
Blood clots are very dangerous and often not caught. They can make their way to either the heart or the brain or clog a blood vessel someplace and cause catastrophic damage. They lead to strokes and heart attacks
They are often fatal. This is a near miss for Feld who is reportedly resting at home taking blood thinners.
Last year Feld wrote about depression and how he was dealing with it. Then this year he’s finally struck with a blood clot. 2 years ago Feld wrote a book with David Cohen called Do More Faster a manual for entrepreneurs on how to burn the candle at both ends. When I saw the title I shuttered and thought ” Oh my God this guy has no clue”
But the do more faster lifestyle philosophy is not exactly the Boulder way. it is more the New York City Way or The Wall Street Way. Feld who is known for working incredible amounts of hours, getting little sleep and running marathons is Boulders startup Guru. But one has to question this startup genius. Does he plan on publicly working himself to death at an early age? He is well on his way.
Boulder has had many gurus over the years who all seem to have the answer to life. There was Trungpa Rinpoche who dragged a lot of people down the road buddhism and alcoholism and aids through unprotected sex. A lot of people died following that guy.
Feld is leading people into workaholism. He and Tech Stars have a nationwide following. Unfortunately we are getting to watch him implode along the way. He should be used as a good bad example on how not to lead your work life. Maybe he’ll smarten up. After all Boulder is a place where people come to live an alternative lifestyle of peace, prosperity, health,wellness at a sane pace. I like Brad Feld and I’d like to see him live and not go the way of Janis, Jim, or Mama Cass.

Boulder Colorado
Sony : Heads are going to roll Jann Scotts Journal
Dec 12th
As a guy who shoots his mouth off for a living and often writes inflammatory editorials, and have a reputation for that kind of stuff. Nobody takes me seriously for what I write or what I say on video. That’s always a mistake be cuz they play right into my jaws of death.
A lot of what I do is parody. Now does that get in the way? sometime. Being a CEO in addition to being a talk show host can be a tricky balancing act. It’s the price I pay for freedom of speech and performance.. it’s particularly interesting here in Boulder which prizes itself as a hip free city when in fact it is scaredy cat.
But what the Sony executives did was ,well, let’s just say heads are going to roll ,starting with the CEO. Why? Because. she put herself up as” I am CEO of Sony” untouchable… she is not a comic, a performer, culturalist editorialist, or a commentator. No she put herself up as an American businessman…… oooops; not anymore.
Nothing is private on the web.
Now what the North Koreans did by hacking into Sony is nothing short of Cyber war. On the other hand looking at it from this perspective what was Sony thinking when they made this movie? They knew North Korea was going to come after them. They had to know right? Oh no maybe they didn’t think about it. nobody thought that . North Korea is just like the crazy Muslim nations. you go ahead and make a crazy movie about Mohammad and find out what the world of Islam will do. blowing s*** up all over the United States..
