Meanwhile, back in High School, false rape accusations, Max Bowman the stalker, Capt Underpants and council

Today Aaron Smith and I went to Ridgeview High School in Longmont to speak to a Career path class. They were mostly serious minded students who were interested in what kind of life choices they were going to make. What a smart idea for a Class. Here’s the break down of what I learned. One student wanted to become an Air traffic controller, another an engineer, another wants to be a police officer at Longmont PD. Another a naval career, another a broadcaster, another wanted to work in computers and video and 1 wasn’t sure.

One of the students called us  and asked if we would come and speak with the class about Boulder Channel 1. They meet three times a week and go on field trips to businesses or have company reps come into speak. How cool is that? We are working on a news piece of our visit and you’ll find it on Boulder Channel 1 later this month.

Is this a spate of girls calling in with false reports of sexual assaults? I think so. There have been three in the last year. Boulder PD charged two girls for false reporting in the last two weeks. wtf is this about? And how many actual charges for sexual assault are bogus that are never revealed. I am afraid way too many. In the 1990s a CU football player was charged , convicted and sent to prison for the rape of his “girl friend” . Three years later she called police and told them that she made the whole thing up, lied through out the trial because she was mad at “him”.  It took 6 months for the case to be reversed, but she eventually went to prison in his place.  Last week we reported that a man was arrested for groping a girl in a hotel room. I tried to talk to boulder PD about this case. It sounds flimsy to me. Like what was the girl doing in “a hotel room on a per-arranged meeting?” Sounds suspicious.

In the past few weeks, we at Boulder channel 1 have been under attack on twitter by a guy named Max Bowman who is a drunkard and a Boulder massage therapist.  We received over 200 threatening tweets.  The police have been involved and now have Bowman under investigation. His case goes to the DA for charges of cyber bullying, harassment threats etc.  Our computer science engineer tracked him down and put the pd case together. But as I’ve said many times on here , Twitter can be a dangerous place. Boulder has it’s share of crazy people on there.

The Boulder city council , yesterday, took on the topic of work place violence. Seth Brigham’s name came up again. He is the guy who got pissed off at the city when they denied his right to public access TV. He then became a permanent fixture at council meetings routinely calling them a bunch of criminals. He won one law suit for $10,000.  Is Seth Brigham a potential threat to members of council?. I dunno, maybe. They now pay a cop to be there every week to protect them from him.  I suppose I should include myself in that group too.  I have done TV shows and written about the violent over throw of government when they deny protected constitutional rights to the people. The council and the Daily Camera went crazy with my performances.

I never actually met David Letterman, but …

Since today is his 30th anniversary for being on Late night television and I am in the same biz , I thought I’d say something. I’ve been on TV as a night time host since 1989 here in Boulder and Denver.

Before I got into broadcasting , as a guy in his late 20’s I once drove a truck long distance to all 48 states. Letterman had a morning talk show on NBC that was absolutely crazy. So all across america in Truck stop lounge areas, at 10 am weekdays, there would be big burly truckers watching Dave along with Americas housewives.  nuff said.

When I started in talk radio in 1987, I hosted a serious programs called Addiction Free Radio but I could not help copying Letterman’s quips. My audience sometimes felt insulted. A new audience found it funny. And thus began my transition from a serious broadcaster to , well what I am now. Jann Scott Live.

Interesting about Letterman is that he was in news broadcasting where he to was fired for being a wise ass weather man. Oh horrors. I have been fired plenty of times for over the top antics.

In 1994 when Vicky our video editor was visting NYC she went to Lettermans show and video taped a piece out side the Ed sullivan Theater as Frann, Janns sister. She actally looked like me in the piece.

Clay, my son went to his show in 1993 and brought me a T-shirt  and a post card and door magnet which I still have.

My brother Joe built David Lettermans pool in Connecticut.

I have a signed autograph of David Letterman on my wall. He signed it and sent it to me with  a letter written by Lori Diamond thanking me for doing Addiction Free Radio. Letterman is also in recovery. But I have more more time than he does. neener neener neener.

In the late 80s I used to call his office with prank calls. Like, once I told them “we had Daves new Honda ready.” Lori diamond came on the phone, “Dave doesn’t have a new Honda.. she laughed and said  Nice try though” I could never get through.

I used to write bits and send them in on his website. They never used any.

A fourteen year old kid I worked with selling coupons actually got his letter read on Letterman.

Finally, in desperation  I gave up  and decided to just be the best Dave I could be right here in Boulder…

Oh Christ! this was supposed to be about David Lettermans 30th anniversary and some how, again, I made it all about me.

Now I am happy
