1979 Long version
by Robert Hedges ©


1979 = Robert took Developmental psychology with Prof. Driscoll at UnivLou in the spring term. He took Developmental psychology - with Prof. Bixler in the fall term of 1979.

79/1/2 = Bernard Lilly and Inman . . . . ."they were having a party, . . I stopped . . . . got all their names . . . This is a vague memory for me. I do not know what was being discussed, but at the time I felt relieved that someone else knew what was happening.

79/1/2 = Welby Pritchett said " we didn't know you were so good, we thought you went bad long ago." "we didn't know you were so good " You really do know all those good people don't you...we thought you went bad long ago.......I went bad...I was out disassembling cars just the other night . . . I've disassembled a lot of cars. I wish I just stuck to fixing them now. . .That girl you want far away...she went under . . we didn't know you were so good . . you're out to get us all.".. Welby Pritchett is a mechanic who was in Robert's high school class, as well as State Trooper Pratt's former brother-in-law. He grew up on the street where Mrs. J.T. Johnson's sister, and the Bentley's relatives lived in Fern Creek. Robert bumped into him sometime soon after the 10 year reunion, in Fern Creek's Convenient.

79/1/ Ed Bickett " better luck next time" . . . " we got the best with the worst before" Also a phrase Robert said to A------a got a not unkind comment from Ed Bickett's secretary " you like her ?" Ed Bickett's employee said " we were just about to get in with them" Robert had gone to Vine Grove KY to try to get Ed Bickett to pressure D&E to complete their late contractual obligation to build the grain storage facility.

79/1/ = Ed Dailey said "it was us . . . we tried to turn you bad . . . " This was the first conversation after Ed Dailey gave away his being involved in the drugging situation by enjoying Robert's pain so immensely.

79/1/ = Jerry Brico called on the phone and said..". do you have a special card ." you better call that number. . " it was us . . . we did it to you . . now we are going to do it for you . . " it was St. Bernards". .

79/1/2 = Jack Bennett venting unexplained anger, as Robert spoke with him on the phone concerning business with Bennett's Store in Taylorsville. " it's you that made the mistake . . . . " No explanation ever has been forthcoming since this conclusory statement was made.

79/1/ = Bill Schneidtmiller from S & S Service Center...."it was us no accounts . . . we did a number on you . . . ". .

79/1/7 = Mrs. Birkhead on a later Sunday in the married Sunday school class .". . . . You're is going to be a test tube baby . . . " A Jefferson County Police Officer, from Highview Baptist, who had joined just a few months earlier was present during these remarks, which were made in a crowd.

79/1/7 = DPBChurch Choir master........"well, do we have any new tenors .". .

79/1/8 or 10 = Robert met (a scared) Ralph on the Salt River bridge, and Ralph said ÒIt was Ed Dailey, . . . he put it in your water jug, he put it in your water jug, now we're all gonna get killed, . . . I'm gonna go home and tell ". He ran off to tell presumably Opal Husband Edwards.

79/1/10/ = Kerry Edwards said. . . . " I heard what happened . . . . .I'll help you . . ." The work was slow on the grain bin, and Robert was working on it despite the fact that the contract was with D&E to construct the bin, much earlier. The grain bin was first used in January.

79/1/14= Mrs. Birkhead on a still later Sunday in the married Sunday school class . " soon as I found out you never touched mine I retracted all my claws, and I have lots of claws . . . " A Jefferson County Police Officer, from Highview Baptist, who had joined just a few months earlier was present during these remarks, which were made in a crowd.

79/ / = Dr Glen Hinson's son said " The're lots of queers in England, my daddy said so ". Why would one of the youth tell Robert something like this? Eddie Dailey had recently left the Army after 13 years, and his last duty station was England ? Is there a connection ?

79/1/30 = Petie Day, "it was us that started it . . . when the noise got loud we took you in . . . ". .

79/2/ = Catherine Hedges said, " I'll feed you no matter how this turns out.." . Robert was baffled.

79/ / = Ed Dailey said " I was peeping on the window . . . " Robert responded that window peeping is about one step from the Raincoat crowd.

79/2/ = Robert made a $60,000. loan application with the required signatures and approval of Houston Hedges at the Land Bank of Shelbyville. He needed proof that 52% of his income was farm related, need to reside on the farm, and need to demonstrate "proven" repayment ability. This loan was denied. Houston Hedges was there and had agreed to the loan application. This agreement represents a contractual obligation, and a continuing business.

79/2/= " we have to draw the line somewhere . . . . "You made a LINE . . . " yelled Steve Hornback, while discussions were under way over internal expansion and long term credit. This ties Steve Hornback to UnivLou Sociology , and this business interference hooks into the class of Prof. Morton Winger.

79/2/ = Catherine Hedges said, " Lita is married to Steve Hornback, go find her in Shelby co." Robert drove part of the way to Shelbyville before he realized how drugged he was and how untrue this statement was.

79/2/ = Eddie Dailey said "We told everyone you'se bad . . . I don' know what we gonna do . . . . " What does bad mean ? Where does the definition come from ?

79/ / = Wetzelberger said " it was us that didn't want you to have any kids . . . " . This sounds like a threat. It's meaning can certainly be mistaken for some other negative meaning.

79/ / = An FM radio station broadcasted " oh . . you don't want A-------a, . . we all had her " Robert was listening to rock/pop music on John's radio and does not know what station broadcasted that.

79/2/ = Houston Hedges said " Its the Hinsons, it's the Hensons " . . Robert stupidly replied in reference to the Hensons with the FM Radio Station instead of the Hinsons at DPBChurch. He then visited the Hensons so they would not be entirely unfamiliar with him again. Robert was thinking of the radio at the time because he had noticed that broadcasts referred to his activities.

79/2/ = Ed Harmon, youth minister at DPBChurch said . . " we kept getting these big phone calls" . . . ". . . we heard that you done all kinds of hard stuff . . to be strong " " you shouldn't lift things in your condition . . Ò[ is this an insult or compliment??]

79/2/ = John Hedges said "hen,hen, they make you think you need me, I like them . . . ".

79/2/ = Bernard Lilly said . . ."we know you didn't do all that stuff . . . " I just stopped by to get all their names . . . I had to make it look like I was one of them . . . ". . Robert's memory of this is very shaky.

79/2/ = Salt II Sat. in Feb. = Deer Park Baptist hosted a Salt II community hearing with Senator Wendell Ford as speaker. One bystander said to Robert ....."you're the policeman with no gun . . . we took your gun away . . . " A Catholic visitor married to a local churchmember said..." you just keep bringing them out . . . . I have relatives in Leitchfield . . . ". Robert could presume he did something or was believed to have done something, but hasn't a clue what this man is talking about.

79/2/ = The Anchorage Patrolman who pulled Robert over one day, and didn't ticket him . . . "she is gone now . . . you don't need to worry about her any more" [her who?....worry about what ?...]

79/3/ = Steve Hornback at the Land Bank said . "It's your Aunt Jeanette . . . " Where does he get a family name. ?

79/3/ = Petie Day said " it was a motor cycle gang that did it . . . . .that gang on Preston.. or " it was Preston street that started it . [and later] . . . " Who do you work for . . . . I have a badge . . . "

79/3/ = John Hedges said "we wanted to share and share alike". . [He had never shared in the work, transportation costs, expenses, risks, planning, skills needed, etc.]

79/3/ = Robert visited Father Jack Morgan while he was hospitalized and Robert was required at the hospital as transportation. Jack Morgan said . . . . " we decidied you aren't going to have any kids . . . . ."we let them slip away . . . " we are for 'ours'". . . you did - bla bla bla . . .why are they badding you out ?, . . that's all we could find" [what do you mean, that's all you could find. . what was that sitting on a streetcorner waiting on you to come along and pick it up] Robert does not yet know who "they" were.

79/3/ = Father Jack Morgan's nephew, Attorney Morgan, while visiting simultaneously with Robert said..." what's this about Gay . ." Robert responded with [ is she divorced ?]

79/3/ = Father Jack Morgan said "You'll lose your little shepherd . . . . " . . what does that mean.??

79/3/ = Butch Johnson said " it was us that did it . . [later] " I'm a lot more like Ed than you think ". . Did what specifically. ?

79/3/ = Catherine Hedges said, " We'll get the secret service if we have to..." or was it "we got the secret service" Ridiculous, unless this is some code. Robert presumed that a cousin was in the Secret Service and some crime had occurred and was being solved.

79/3/ = Petie Day said "you changed horses in mid stream" 79/3/ = Ella CHD said - "It was Petie Day" (what was Petie Day or what did he do ? ) while visiting Fern Creek in early 1979. Robert was trying to figure how he had been drugged at the time.

79/3/ = Friday night youth dinner at DPBChurch - Mrs. Bailey, mother of two girls in the youth group said = " you're about fragmented now aren't you . ." Beth Gaba said ." you want me to feed you . . ?

79/3/ = same Friday night = Judge Delahanty sr. said "We heard from your faith . . . they're a pretty good faith . . . you're in a hurry to get back to them aren't you . . . we won't keep you long . . . this card will tell you when to be in court again " . . .This was a friendly Traffic Court and a polite Judge.

79/4/= Sunday afternoon in the DPBChurch parking lot, Tommy Jackson, the newly arrived youth, seated himself in Robert's car and said "I'll do anything you like . . . you like me don't you . . . I thought you liked me . . I peep in windows for the Courier Journal . [why you little creep] . I was in Boy's Haven....The councilor there [boffed] the other boys . .[I might have done something like that once - what about the priest ?] . the priest didn't care . . . he was a crook . . . Boland-Maloney Lumber Company is his family . . [oh, a bunch of fag priests, why didn't you turn them in, tell the detectives ? {RH}] . . . . . .they'll kill you for that . . . they're gonna kill you . . [no I'm gonna kill you, don't try to change your story, I have you on tape - {RH}] . you know those two [girls] you want to see . . . I got rid of them . . . they're gone . . . you're never gonna see them again . . . " .Is there some connection to this situation between Susan Dahl and a dispatcher at the Courier Journal working in the basement, known only as Doug the Chiropractors son ? Or a connection to Mrs JT Johnson who is the Courier Journal representative in Spencer Co.

79/4/ = Monday or Tuesday Robert told John to stay away from Tommy Jackson, and told Ed Harmon that Tommy "has a problem". These were vague facts, without explanation.

79/4/ = Tuesday night Robert was arrested on a bench warrant for failure to appear on the traffic ticket, same ticket as for the Friday night in March hearing described earlier.

79/4/ = Wednesday in Warrant Court with Judge Delahanty sr. again who said [after Robert made an opening statement - "go ahead make me look bad" (an arrest and jailing does make a person look bad, you know)] Judge Delahanty sr said "we hear everything you say, you figure out how. . . you like the Boys don't you ?. [uh well no I'm a bit of a loner]. . what about the girls ?. [Robert responded with a tirade about the gluesniffer, and how he wasn't going to marry her - well meaning but ill-advised and using earthy language. He also got the only real thing which he thought might come back to legally haunt him off his chest.] . . . I just had a long talk with your Attorney . . . He's in the next room . . he's afraid he'll be called a fag. I think I'll fire the Arresting officer . . . we wanted to get rid of them anyway . . . we can't hold you . . .we didn't read you your rights . . don't use that one against me too often "drums started it, I'm gonna end it for you. . you've got all the queers " Robert had no attorney and he didn't to his knowledge have all the queers. Delahanty's brother is a Priest, and the Sunday before the subsequent arrest Robert have a confrontation with "the little creep" at DPBChurch where the topic of abuse, a priest and threats are factors.

79/4/= After Robert was released from the jail on Wednesday afternoon, he was driving on Back Run Road, and he saw a field of redbud trees which needed mowing. He stopped nearby at Shagbark to inquire about transplanting several. The following situation with a bearded heavy-set man is strange... " You don't want to mess with me . . . I run everything . . . I could have shot you where you stood but I see that you are unarmed . . . You just weren't gonna light out were you...This place here used to belong to _______________.I lit them out personally . . . I got what you're looking for inside . . [short wave??] .They're doing all sorts of stuff . . . Don't worry, they won't recognize anyone . . "first we did something real easy...then we did something real hard . . . you'll like her better...we made her a bad girl . . . she'll be good for you . . . we're doing it just like in the book . . . we even made a torture board . . . we got the Fed we wanted . . . don't worry about them . . . they won't cause any more trouble . . . we brought everyone in from other places . . . they wonÕt catch anything . . . we have our own doctor . . . you never gave anyone anything . . truckers bla bla . . ". Robert never really understood what was happening here. This individual may have had a short-wave radio rig, and may have been involved in something on his separate wavelength. Tom O'Hern who is listed in the records as the owner of Shagbark on that date. Robert left here more confused, but with a positive outlook.

79/4/ = Ed Dailey said ". .that's my line, I'm supposed to say that . . . well I guess I'll have to use that then. They did it to one of ours...we're gonna do it to one of they're...". He believes there is a script here.

79/4/ = Social Psychology with Prof Driscoll who said " " we want you in the middle of the road " among many other unexplained things, while in class, before all the students.

79/4/ = Steve Hornback said " All you have to do is get married , then you can borrow all the money you want . . ."

79/4/ = Prof. Morton Winger, during Sociology class at UnivLou, responding to a comment from Robert about socialism [that's preposterous] . . " yeah . . . you like those pretty preposterouses don't you . . . I like those pretty preposterouses too . . well what about the girls . . that's what we want to hear about . . you made a line didn't you . . [two classes later] There's gonna be a murder in Anchorage."..Prof Winger is a 300 lb Sociology Professor at UnivLou. who teaches Social Problems.

79/3/ = unknown store clerk in Bloomfield = "you're the flasher of the lake area " [one more insult, one more rumor..]

79/3/ = John Stearns from S & S Service Center..." we left you one . . you can still have kids . . ."

79/4/ = Handy pantry clerks "first we heard you went over the hill, then we heard you came back, you never did go over the hill did you . . . ? "

79/4/ = A clerk in Mt Washington at a convenience store last name of Williams [ about 6' 3" tall] said " we don't want you to get big".

79/4/ = Catherine Hedges said, " you shorted . . . . when I was young, shorting was the worst ." . . . What does short mean?.

79/4/ = Lee Kotheimer visits the farm, hands Robert a pistol and says " shoot me (him)" Robert used this pistol to shoot several groundhogs which were digging up the barn foundation.

79/4/13 = Refusal letter by Steve Hornback of Land Bank. No long term credit was available to Robert from this bank.

79/4/ = David Harrar, a youth at DPBChurch said "Pope told us there are lots of queers in Central Park . . . he [Pope] said "let's go beat some queers . . . " . .

79/ / = Robert discovered Amway and looked at the possibility of selling. He made a list of potential customers at the request of the local established Amway dealer, Bob Blair. John got this list of potential customers out of Robert's clipboard and passed it along. He was a spy of sorts for someone. The rumor was soon spread that Robert had an enemies list, which was in reality a business prospect list.

79/ / = Powell Lagasaw was a neighbor at 6009 Bardstown Rd. who arrived on the farm to gather firewood. "we heard you suck d--ks" . .

79/4/ = A Southland Electric secretary said " Shaughnessey needs a big bill payer . . . " The name Shaughnessey has different meanings at different times and in different places, but at that time Shaughnessey was a UnivLou student politician, rather than a Ky State Legislator as he is now.

79/4/ = Curt, a youth at DPBChurch said " we been giving it to you right along . . . it's us you're destroying..." [giving him what - respect?] This is still misunderstood.

79/4/ = Bryan Barnes, an almost youth at DPBChurch said " I think you're sweet on me . . . " This was intended to provoke and it did just that. Robert felt closer to violence than is normal for him. "Get your mind out of the gutter, boy" said Robert.

79/4/ = A non-central character, a Deacon in Church Library . . ." we didn't want you to have a blow job." . .This is the result of the little drama with Judge Delahanty sr. I believe.

79/4/ = Sunday = Bill Gaba, a youth at DPBChurch said . . ."we know nothing happened in jail . . . we were there . . . I guess it's all right to sit in my car . . . " What is going on here ? This implies that someone can spread any rumor anywhere and because no rumor is ever expressly explained there is no defense. Robert hired him for a truck ride to Elizabethtown later.

79/4/ = Father Jack Morgan said "it was the tenants" . This is a nice conclusive statement, which may or may not be based upon facts, which were never stated, or well pled as the law requires.

79/4/ = Random unknown security Guard at My Old Kentucky Home in Bardstown, . . ."we know all about you fags . . . " . . Was my photo circulated or was my distinctive Corvette given a bad name as Wetzelberger said.?

79/4/ = An unknown clerk in a store..." your brother doesn't know what he's doing . . . " . .

79/4/ = John Stearns said "we heard you got bugged . . . " .while Officer Dalrymple was present. This occurred at the farm. It never dawned on Robert that this conversation had overtones of homosexual conduct. It seemed like an entirely different conversation. Robert invited Dalrymple around because of Delahanty, and Delahanty had led Robert to believe something. See the Tooth Chapter.

79/5/ = Dahlrymple said.... " you're a fag...it's confirmed...". your sister said so "[later] . . we heard you grew marijuana . . Robert was distraught. When an official person like a Policeman falsely calls you a fag it really hurts. Robert doesn't know if it hurts more when it's true. He responded with a statement to Dahlrymple about his half-sister's lesbian baby-sitters, since she had attacked him before Xmas. Robert invited the Police out to the farm, and they arrived en mass with horses. The best way to end a rumor is head-on-confrontation.

79/4/ = Prof. Morton Winger "you're rotting from the inside out . . ." Robert took this to mean that a disease rumor like Billy Winburn had mentioned was going around.

79/4/ = A Deacon at DPBChurch.." we made you beg . . . ". Pride may goeth before a fall, but one must have some pride. Robert does not know when before this date he had begged. Who would feel fulfillment by making him a beggar. ? Who would become a better person as a result of depriving Robert. ?

79/4/ = Mrs. Dauenhauer at DPBChurch..."Dahlrymple is helping us". Robert do not understand this, but if this were true, Robert would need to find a different Policeman to help him solve this dilemma.

79/4/ = Dave Parrott said "They're calling you a fag . . . I know better than that . . . I got just what you want at my house . . . I've been straight for two years, come on over, I'll show you . . . you want that girl in Leitchfield . . . " Parrot is a local Corvette mechanic and trader.

79/4/ = A brush pile fire spread to the main crop field and standing corn as well as the lodged corn was lost. There was no crop insurance. That corn which lodged (fallen over) earlier was already unmarketable.

79/4/ = Ed Dailey..." you shore got upset about that Tommy kid down at church " 2/3 days after Tommy Jackson = Ed Dailey visits Robert on the west hill.....John Stearns is camping.... Ed is prying about John Stearns, sex, etc. "well I guess we'll use that then,........" [how does he hear from DPBChurch]

79/4/ = Bob Blair said " what's this about a blow job . . . " . .He is an Anchorage businessman, who sells Insurance now. He obviously heard something on a grapevine. Robert responded with "not over here in this neighborhood ."

79/ / = Petie Day said ."it's me that has been the roadblock in your path . . . it's not what you think, it's not one big conspiracy . . . . . . we all have our own thing going . . . ". . while in a store in Mt. Washington.

79/ / = Robert called Lowry Brown of the Taylorsville Brown Family and he said "everybody got after you" . Tragedy struck the Brown family since that time. Bobby Brown, Lowry's brother, shot himself, and a daughter died in a one car accident in a ravine. The family farm was taken for financial misdealing at the local bank and because of marijuana growing. The Bank was sold to others after irregularities were discovered.

79/ / = Petie Day said " you'd better go align yourself with your sister...it was her that knocked you down . . . [how did you get her to do that] .oh we just called her up and told her a bunch of stuff".

79/ / = Eddie Dailey said " we told everyone you'se bad, I don'a know what we' gonn' do. ".

79/ / = Attorney Kelley of Hodge & Kelley in Taylorsville while he visited the farm looking for political support. "we said you weren't practicing . . .practicing . . we knew we should not have thrown in that word....." . This implied some negative rumor has circulated.

79/5/ = Houston Hedges, on several separate conversations, said = " you were supposed to run at the first hint of trouble," Trouble from whom - run from what ? "we're in with the no accounts . . " = SPEAK FOR YOURSELF = we know just where you were . . We hear from everybody . . . we are sworn to secrecy . . . we had to get something on you . . . we couldn't be in if we didn't have something on you," These remarks are made at various times and on no specific occasion. They are not all memorable, but some were notes taken immediately, and others are burned into his subconscious. Because Robert and Houston had practically constant contact, it seemed less relevant to record these. Robert presumed that he would be enlightened eventually "you beat the Cooks, " I didn't know that we were in a race or a contest. 'he couldn't measure up" presumably discussing John Hedges.

79/5/ = Harlan Brown said " they're talking about you . . . they're talking about you . . . " It took me all my life to get in with the big . . . I'm not getting out on account of the likes of you "

79/5/ = Catherine Hedges said, " you have been running around blaming Ed Dailey for the fire in the corn field . . . you need to go see a psychiatrist."... This is where B lied to F that D said - to cause F to become angry and attack D. Some people fall for this trick over and over and become irrational.

79/5/ = Robert originally approached the FBI because someone had planted a persistent false rumor about his car-show-ready 1957 Corvette. The confrontation with a false rumor seems to be the best approach. The violation of educational law which was occurring was part of the complaint of 1980. Robert also had to confront the various other rumors which seemed to destabilize his credibility in front of this group.

79/ / = An F.B.I. male employee claimed "lack of jurisdiction, it is just a small local matter " The FBI Agent who first spoke with Robert was named Mike Koziol. He soon transferred elsewhere. Robert never asked for any agent's names again.

79/ / = An F.B.I. female employee tells me that "Oh, you're the guy everybody is going to harangue you out of town". What does harangue mean, and who would suppose that coersion (extortion) is legal?

79/ / = An F.B.I. male employee said "we're going to get you for flight to avoid prosecution...."[ older agent in office ] Couple this duress with the above duress and there quickly appears a problem.

79/ / = A woman civil servant in the Federal Building said Òyou arenÕt tainted, only tarnished " . . ."your silver platter is tarnished also ".

79/ / = An F.B.I. female employee said " we used a writ of mandamus . . . . "

79/5/4- The Land Bank refused a loan application for $64,000. The signature of Houston Hedges on the line indicates an agreement exists on this date to procure long term credit.

79/ / = Eddie Dailey " it was me that did it all . . . the Foreman's know everything that goes on in Jtown . . . shouldn't you go see them . . . "

79/ / = Mitchell Bentley said " Eddie Dailey done something that wasn't too swift . . . he never was very swift, not even in high school. "

79/5/ = Harold Philips, associate Pastor at DPBChurch- "it's mass entrapment . . . we've heard of it before . . . " . Robert could only think of the Catholics as the "masses" and the Baptist as the "multitudes" at the time. He was after all in church.

79/5/ = Dr. Gaba, father of Bill, Ed and Beth Gaba, all in the youth group at DPBChurch = " you're brother-in-law is trying to get you killed . " [later] "stealing firewood" [ The stealing firewood rumor is just one more false rumor by those who spread the rumors faster than you can stop them.] [later] "everyone likes Wetzelberger". . [maybe a Wetzelberger relative, Dr. CF Wetzelberger]

79/5/ = Dahlrymple said . ." it was Hikes Point....". Hikes Point (a location in Louisville) what or who is still unclear? Robert could never carry on a conversation in response to this because he didn't know enough to converse.

79/5/ = A secretary in the front office of the FBI in Louisville. "oh, you're the guy everybody is going to harangue out of town" . .

79/ / = Chuck Otte said "You were standing with one foot in the mud, and you stepped into the mud with your other foot. " . . . "they have photographs". . . . "We wouldn't let your attorney do anything....." [.....what attorney.....when....who is "we" ?]

79/ / = Harlan Brown..."you are all interchangeable . . . ".

79/ / = Bob Blair said "they just want you to stay away from Beth . . . " __________________________ [later] . . . "it's Petie Day, he just found a different way to knock you down . . . " .

79/ / = Ella H. Deitz said "Everybody is doing it for John".

. 79/ / = Eddie Dailey said " them you got on . . .they come running to us and we let'um off " Robert believed at that moment this referred to Parrot, but he doesn't know who at this point.

79/5/ = Doug Yates, a Corvette Specialist in Cecilia, KY, on different occasions said " We heard from Kenny Cook, he said you only did it once , . . .he used the radio, to Grayson County . . . they probably will turn you fag . . . "

79/5/ = Dahlrymple at S&S Service Center in Fern Creek said " They had gotten next door to start it . . . it was them making all the big phone calls . . . they had gotten some others to make big phone calls . . . "

79/6/ = Catherine Hedges said, " you argued with the man behind the desk" This shouted harangue never made sense to Robert, because it lacked an identification of whom.

79/6/ = Bill Gaba said "we heard you fell all over...." Robert replied "you mean my heart goes out to them? " - " no that's not what I meant ." . " well they won't have you to kick around anymore..." [this statement sounds like the old Nixon statement, and it sounds like fellatio also, as in the earlier use of fell. Or was that earlier use of "fell all over" about some drunk chick at a party on New Years Eve. ] The events were getting to him, and sex seemed to be the underlying theme.

79/6/ = Dahlrymple, Det. Jones and fat George of the Ambulance Service mentioned Chuck Otte. " You won't have to worry about him anymore. " Dahlrymple would have fixed me up with a blonde in the license bureau, or his daughter maybe about now.

79/ / = Wetzelberger said "we'll have to give you a bad name now " .

79/6/ = Dahlrymple said " we weren't trying to get you...we were trying to get your dad . . . [ later] . . . it was us . . . we're supposed to let up now . . " .

79/6/ = John Hedges said "if you're so smart...you figure it out..." [hate- all knowledge comes from external sources originally, after which intelligence can assemble and utilize that acquired knowledge]

79/6/ = Ken Sutherland borrowed and returned the cast-iron bench saw to the farm from Robert. He said "oh . . you know that girl far away, she's crying now . . . she said she never "fell" anywhere" Who is he referring to here and does fell mean fellatio ? and Robert lost his temper and said " what about that girl you raped," and also "If your dad wants to paw someone he should stick to pawing you. " Robert was referring to Mr. Carlos Sutherland having put his hand on his leg several years before. " she's been telling everyone what you did . . . . she says you have been doing not nice things . . . she's saying that didn't happen . . . [glue sniffing] . . " I haven't a clue who the girl far away was, and I lost my temper. I suspect in retrospect that the names were so mixed up that each was angry over the situation. This shouting should not have happened, and except for the stress of the time would not have.

This late $20,000. short term loan delayed a tractor purchase and thus plowing and planting of beans until July 79, and the Salt River flood of August and volunteer corn from losses in Dec. 1978 harvest reduced the bean crop to very few salable beans. $5000. lost to flood and storage depletion, $8,000 lost to late planting.

79/8/ = Ben McAdams.." you sure are good at finding bugs . . . ".

79/8/ = Ben McAdams, the loan officer at the PCA = " it was rat poison . . . that's what happens to rats . . . you're the fly in the ointment, you know what happens to the fly in the ointment don't you . . we call it a bung . . . " .....
