Speaker 1 (00:00):
Scott Vorhees.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
Here you are. You're listening to the radio. I'm talking
on the radio. This is a connection that few people
can make because few people choose to turn into tune
into this radio show, probably because I can't even know
the difference between turn in and tune in. Yeah, we
are turning in. Like just go to sleep at night
to listen to you on the radio. Scott. I know.
(00:22):
I get your emails. They come in all the time
via the Zonker's Custom wo's inbox. Scott at kfab dot com.
Good morning. My name is Scott Vorhees. Lucy Chapman is
right there wearing the same shirt I wore for second
grade picture day in nineteen eighty four.
Speaker 3 (00:39):
Yeah, it looks like so is the one you're wearing now, Linus. No,
Charlie Brown.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
Sitting the Charlie Brown's shirt is white with a black
jagged stripe.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
This is exactly what you're wearing, and that.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
By the way, is exactly what I'm wearing, except the
colors are different. It's a black shirt with a yellow
jagged stripe. Here a whole the microphone really close to
my shirt so you can see it.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
Oh, there we go.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
Now you do the same we're gonna do that.
Speaker 3 (01:11):
I can't find it.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
I'm holding for applause. I'm not all right. Here's the
latest thing that our sheriff, Douglas County Sheriff Aaron Hanson,
has done, just to just to tweak people. And my
favorite thing about tweaking people is when it's done subtly.
This was sent to me yesterday by someone in the know.
(01:44):
This wasn't a press release at least not that I saw.
Maybe I ignored it. Sorry, This is just something that's
now posted on the Douglas County website. If you go
to the Douglas County Sheriff's Office, there's a new page
on there. It's the Douglas County Share Griffs Sheltering Assistance
Program and it says on there help us house those
(02:08):
who are living intent encampments in Douglas County. The Sheltering
Assistance Program allows Douglas County residents to volunteer to temporarily
house individuals who are experiencing housing instability. And it is
a document you fill out. It says at the end
(02:28):
there's a disclaimer. Just like with any public document, I
certify that the information and government issued identification I provided
it is true and complete to the best of my
knowledge and believe I understand that the information will be
used to conduct a background check, and I am aware
that falsifying information may lead to criminal charges. So it
is up there with the Douglas County Seal and it
(02:49):
says this film must be or part of me. This
form must be filled out completely in order to be considered.
First your personal information full name, address, city, state, zip code, email,
phone number, and then a question do any miners live
in the household? Yes? Or no? Those would be minor children,
not those who go down into the caves. And then
(03:13):
it says under housing considerations, and you click or you
check or circle yes or no. I am willing to
house these individuals for at least blank months, and you
fill in there, so you would fill in there like
I think I'd be willing to for the next six months.
You're right, in a six how's the following individuals? And
(03:35):
you can choose yes or no. A family, a person
with a pet or pets, a felon or repeat offender,
a sex offender, a person with unaddressed addiction challenges, a
person with unaddressed mental health challenges. And then you circle,
(03:58):
Yes or no, I expect to be compensated for my participation.
I think under some circumstances, I would expect to be
compensated for my participation. In other circumstances, I might expect
to pay for such I mean some people. And you're
going to house a sex offender with unaddressed mental health challenges?
(04:18):
How much not you pay me? I'm saying this could
really lifen up my house. This is the spice of
life I'm looking for. By the way, Lucy, your microphone
is still on the entire time.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
Oh look at that?
Speaker 2 (04:37):
Yeah, how about that? Okay, So if you want to
do all that stuff, fill all this out, and then
you can check which housing accommodations you are willing to
provide a person who's living on the streets, who may
or may not be a sex offender with unaddressed addiction
and mental health challenges. You can be willing to provide
a bedroom, a couch, a converted garage space, food, rights
(05:00):
to treatment, or other. I mean you can put in
there like jet ski. Does this person like to jet ski?
I have a jet ski? I'd be willing to provide
a jet ski? And then yes or no, I have
a license, or I have experience providing behavioral health care
treatment and substance abuse treatment, and then you sign and
(05:23):
date it and you send it into the Douglas County
Sheriff's office. And no one is going to do this,
and they know this. This, this is a brilliant form
of subtle satire to argue against the people that say
it is absolutely inhumane and unnecessary for law enforcement to
(05:45):
do anything about Omaha's growing homeless problem. When the sheriff
goes out there and you have limited resources from a
law enforcement standpoint, a legal standpoint, to remove someone from
a situation that's dangerous to themselves. If you stay out here,
you will die, dangerous to others. Some of the people
(06:07):
who are living on the streets are a danger not
just to you and your family walking around, but other
homeless people who they're attacking and abusing and assaulting on
a regular basis. They are a trespassing nuisance in businesses
(06:29):
and private property. They're aggressively panhandling people in the streets.
And when the sheriff comes up and says, okay, it's time,
you can't you can't do this, and suddenly all these
activists come out and say how dare you? This is
so inhumane? And then the sheriff says, what exactly are
you doing about it? What? All these people say, Hey,
(06:51):
you can't do that. What are you doing about it?
We're we're the ones that get called out, someone calls
nine to one one, cops show up, we're cops. What
do you want us to do about it? If the
answer is nothing, just leave them be. We can't leave
them be. We're seeing people die, We're seeing people get attacked,
We're seeing people get trafficked, We're seeing people get hooked
(07:14):
on drugs. We're seeing business owners say, hey, what do
you mean you can't do anything about it? This guy
shows up, drops trou and purges his bilge in the
lobby of my hotel every morning at ten o'clock, you know,
like he's a like the wake up call, and you
guys can't do anything about it. And the activists say, no,
(07:37):
don't touch them, don't you leave them alone. So the
Douglas County Sheriff's Office has a new Sheltering Assistance program
to tell the activists, okay, says you care so much
about these people, how many of them are you willing
to take in for how long does it matter to
(07:57):
you whether they are a felon, a repeat offender, a
sex offender with unaddressed addiction and mental health challenges? And
are they going to sleep in a do you have
a bedroom? Are they on the couch? Are you providing food?
Rides to treatment? Are you a behavioral healthcare practitioner? Sign
(08:21):
and date? Fill it in and we will take them.
We will be very happy to take them from living
at fifteenth in north of Coming Street and we'll bring
them right over to your house. Thank you for providing
your full name and address. We'll bring them right to
your house. You know, just Avon calling. Sorry, not Avon.
(08:44):
It's the Douglas County Sheriff's office with a vanload full
of homeless people. And I know people are like, this
is disgusting. You think this as a joke. No, this
isn't meant to be funny, darkly satirical, absolutely funny. Haha,
(09:05):
laugh out loud. That's the funniest thing I've seen all day. No,
nothing about this funny. But apparently the fact that these
activists say, don't you do anything two or for these
people they're doing just fine as they're as they're fine,
just letting them die, especially whereas we're going into the
(09:27):
winter months here in Omaha. This is to tell them,
all right, you care so much about these people, have
you given any thought to what happens to them if
you allow them to live on the streets. Cause we
can't put them in jail very long and you're not
(09:48):
taking them in, So what exactly do you think is
going to happen here? That's the Douglas County Sheriffs Sheltering
Assistance Program. Bravo Sheriff Hansen and his staff. I am
a big fan of dark satire. Now this other thing
is real. That's real life. But this is a new
(10:10):
law that goes Actually it's two. You've only heard about one,
the move over law, which says that if you are
going through a department store and you're taking up the
entire aisle as I'm trying to get through with my cart,
you got to move over otherwise I'm allowed to stab
you that.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
Okay, I had not heard about that.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
Checking to see if Lucy's paying attention. That's not the law,
though it should be, Man, it should be. Excuse me,
can you get the get out of.
Speaker 3 (10:43):
Maybe just like POKEM get him with your car.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
A little one person stab is another person's poke.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
Well, just a little bump with the cart.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
I barely broke the skin, but I didn't hit in
the arteries. It's a It was an aggressive poke. It
was a meaningful poke.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
But did you use a lead pencil?
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Aka stab? I have a which hand? Is it my
left one? See the scar right here? Yes, that's from
a lead pencil, digging directly like from my pointer finger
down to my thumb. I have a scar from a
lead pencil. I don't remember what I was doing. I
think I was obviously goofing around in class as an
(11:25):
elementary student at Bloomfield Elementary Home with the Mighty Mighty Bobcats.
I was goofing around and my pencil slipped and cut
through this gap in my hand, and I remember looking
down at it, and when the skin opens up, you
can see the vein in there before the blood starts
(11:45):
to come all over the place. Is this gross? It's
not lunchtime yet, it's nine eighteen, and I remember looking
down and seeing blue before I saw red. And then
the teacher said time to go to gym class. Everyone
line up, and I'm standing there and I'm holding my
hand and I'm looking at it and blood running everywhere,
and we're going to gym class. And I finally get
in there and I find the gym teacher, the great
(12:07):
Missus Rocar, who I found out recently not to demean
her character, listens to this radio show once in a while.
I went up to her and I said, uh, Missus Rocar.
She looked at my head and said, go to the
principal's office. What do you go to the nurse? What
are you doing like? I don't know. My hand's falling off.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
You guys, were you were a little behind a little yeah, no,
a little ahead of whatever. Yeah, not the same class
as me.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
I'm much much younger than you, Is that what you're
trying to say?
Speaker 3 (12:37):
Younger? When we were in school, we just used pens
and drew on ourself. I don't know why you were
stabbing yourself.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
I didn't mean to stab myself, and I meant to
draw in my shoes or whatever I was doing drawing
menil well, I don't know I'd.
Speaker 3 (12:49):
Take a pen and weren't real smart?
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Were you draw on my trapper keeper? What I was
saying was we have a new move over law. But
that's not the only law the change that takes effect
in Nebraska to day. I'll tell you about it next.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
Scott Voice News Radio eleven ten kfaby.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
If you're driving down the road right now, look at
the shoulder, not your shoulder, the road shoulder.
Speaker 3 (13:19):
Well, if you said if you wanted them to look
at their shoulder, you would not have said the shoulder
unless they only had one shoulder.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
I have to be very specific otherwise people get confused.
Look up ahead on the shoulder. Is there someone pulled
off to the side of it? Well, I know I'm
supposed to move over for emergency or roadside assistance vehicles.
Certainly the law. Oh no, no, The law today states
(13:49):
you have to move over for everyone and everything. Is
there something parked up ahead on the shoulder? Can you
slow down and move over to the other lane? If so,
you have to otherwise that's a ticket. Can you If
there is no other lane, but there's someone up on
(14:11):
the you know, pulled off the side of the road,
you have to slow down and cautiously go around them.
You can't just drive it eight to twelve miles over
the speed limit like most people do and just fly
by there looking at your phone and almost hitting the
people on the side of the road. That's what you're doing.
Now that's against the law now as of today, whereas
(14:34):
the previous move over law only applied to nine to
one one like that's a whether it's fire, police or
ambulance or roadside assistance vehicles like a tow truck. You
had to move over for that stuff. Now drivers must
slow down and if possible, move over when approaching all
(14:55):
stopped vehicles and road users. That includes pedestrians, bicyclists, certainly
people on crosswalks, which you would stop for them anyway,
and some of these slow moving ag vehicles and equipment.
I love the people out there in a two lane
(15:17):
rural road and they're like, there's a giant, you know,
agg vehicle in the road. I don't know what this is,
some sort of sprayer giant thing can only go about
fifteen miles per hour. Hey, the speeling is fifty five, buddy,
move as you're feeding America. Don't inconvenience me as you're
(15:38):
out there working non stop.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
I sort of picture them saying, I don't know what
to do. Do I go around them?
Speaker 2 (15:46):
Can't John Deere or any of the people that make
this equipment can't they make something that goes at least
seventy five miles per hour? Wouldn't that be fun?
Speaker 3 (15:55):
Well, they can, but that's where you're going to find them,
in the lawnmower races at the county.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
Just do it. You've got you got one of these
giant tractors, you got a bunch of equipment on the
back of it, you got a big spreader hanging off
the side of it. Things taking up like nine lanes
of traffic and going eighty miles per hour. That'd be fun.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
I'd watch.
Speaker 2 (16:19):
Yeah, I would love to drive one of those. So
any there's anything there on the side of the road,
whether it's moving slowly like some of these ag vehicles,
or whether it's it's parked on the side of the road.
Like you got a car and you got some guy
who's got the hood raised on his old Geo tracker
(16:41):
and he's looking at it going I knew I shouldn't
have bought my girlfriend's car in nineteen ninety six. I
knew this wouldn't This wasn't gonna last for thirty years.
And now I've I've got the hood popped open and
I'm looking at the engine like I have, like I'm
trying to show anyone around me, like, yeah, if I
just stare at this thing, it ought to learn its
lesson succumb to the guilt. I'm giving it and start
(17:05):
up again. I don't have any idea when any of
these belts and hoses, all these various pistons and things
do I put an I put oil in here? Somewhere?
Someone does. I don't know. But I'm gonna sit here
and stare at this and I'm gonna touch this. Ooh,
that's hot. I love these guys popping the hood looking
(17:25):
in there like they had like they're just acting like
they have any idea what to do. They don't. Most
guys anymore don't. And I'm not criticizing you. I'm one
of you. I don't have any idea.
Speaker 3 (17:41):
I don't like what I like. The comedian it did
kind of a bit on that.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
Yeah, that said that was me just a moment ago.
Speaker 3 (17:48):
Oh that's right, Okay, never mind.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
What did this other hack say?
Speaker 3 (17:53):
He said, you guys, you open up the hoods and
you you prop it open, what do you expect to
find a giant on off witch?
Speaker 2 (18:01):
That's good, that's funnier what I said I once changed
a serpentine belt. I thought. I was like, I'm ready
to be in a pit crew. I'm probably like the
smartest guy ever lived. So now you've got to move
over if someone's popped the hood, you know, mock them
all you want as you drive by, and then you've
(18:27):
got to move over, slow down. If you don't, you
could get pulled over and you could get a ticket.
But that's not the only law that takes effect today.
As of today, reckless driving and speeding, the fines have
been jacked up. What constitutes now reckless driving has changed
(18:50):
a little bit. I will explain next.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
Scottes News Radio elevenfab.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
The wheat Fields seventies shaft inspired casserole ad is back
on the radio, which meant yesterday we got a bunch
of people emailing saying, yes, the Wheatfield's ad is back.
Speaker 3 (19:13):
I stopped in there yesterday. The new one eighty ninth
in Maple.
Speaker 2 (19:17):
Ron who is the man with the master planning? A
nine x thirteen pen ron from Wheatfield's popped in here
last week and we updated that ad with the new
tag there about the new location on on West Maple
And I asked him because we were doing it with
that ad and I said, who is that singer? And
(19:38):
they did that years ago. She was someone who worked
at the restaurant.
Speaker 3 (19:41):
Oh wow, yeah, she should have taken that career a
little further.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
Maybe she had. I said, does she still worked there?
And no, we don't know what happened to her. But
we had this idea and she said, yeah, I can
sing it, and she absolutely nailed it. And now she's
I don't know, tell me Houston. I don't know. It
could be I don't know who she is, but yeah,
that was just someone who was working at the restaurant.
Speaker 3 (20:06):
I also I got this job.
Speaker 2 (20:09):
Lucy was working at the Dundee Dell across the street
and Gary was in there. Gary and Kent were in there, going,
we need someone to do traffic reports in the morning,
and Lucy says, I can drive a car and she's
been on here ever since. She didn't quite understand what
the job was.
Speaker 3 (20:26):
But oh, you took my confession too far. I didn't
want people to.
Speaker 2 (20:32):
Know all that right. I also got some people emailed
last week and said, did you just play the nineteen
eighties Elton John diet Coke ad? Yes, yes, I did.
Didn't say anything about it. Just played it and moved on,
and I might do it again. It's one of my
favorite things ever. But back to traffic. Starting today, changes
(20:57):
to combat speeding are included in a new law, as
we mentioned a moment ago, says you have to move
over or slow down and move over as much as
possible without obviously like I moved over and I swerved
into oncoming traffic and I got hit by a bus. Like,
you don't have to move over that far. It's still
(21:17):
illegal to cross the center lane and crash headlong into
oncoming traffic. But if you're out there and you can
safely slow down, move over for vehicles on the side
of the road. That's not just emergency vehicles anymore, that's anything,
including bicyclists, move over. I understand that sometimes you got
(21:39):
a line of cars waiting behind old Lance Armstrong who
thinks he's on the Alps section of the Tour de Fronce,
and he's like, this is the uh, this is the
mountain part of the race, and I'm going up this incline.
The speed limit is forty I'm going fourteen miles an
hour and I'm giving it all. I got out here
(22:00):
or in my full body spandex. That was, I admit,
now a bad idea because other people would see me
in it. But I got my bike helmet on and
I'm just gonna greg leman my way up this hill. Meanwhile,
you got eighteen cars behind him going come on, move over,
get out the way. You know, hey, you gotta they've
got to move over to And then you got that.
Speaker 3 (22:22):
Brings up an interesting point though. If you've got somebody
on the side, let's say they're on the Interstate on
their bike. Now, first of all, they're not supposed to
be there, so.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
Yeah, you can hit them.
Speaker 3 (22:34):
Anybody that's doing that is already going to attract the
attention of the police because they're going to be asked
to move off of the interstate.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
I know they can. If you're on a bicycle bicycle
and you're going down the side of the Interstate, you
could hit the hitch hikers, and we don't want you
to do that.
Speaker 3 (22:51):
What that's true? Well, but until they are asked to
move off into a designated bike trail portion of the road,
then what are you supposed to do. Now you have
an entire line of cars that are suddenly going over
to the next lane.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
Well, I mean, you're not supposed to have a bicycle
on the interstate, but sometimes your car breaks down, you
move over the side of the road, and you've got
to move over for them too. So I don't know
what you're all about.
Speaker 3 (23:21):
What this law initially said was you have to move
over for law enforcement, for crashes.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
And roadside tow trucks, emergency police.
Speaker 3 (23:30):
You know what they all have in common, flashing lights.
So when you are when it is now a law
to move over for somebody who has just broke down,
which is as a great idea, of course you should
do that, but to be held criminally responsible if you
don't see them. I mean, what if it's dark but
they don't have flashing lights.
Speaker 2 (23:51):
Put your hazard's on.
Speaker 3 (23:53):
Well, that would be great for the person that's on
the side of the road to do that. Yeah, I'm
just saying there's got to be some some kind of
leeway in this law.
Speaker 2 (24:02):
I know.
Speaker 3 (24:03):
I'm not saying that somebody's been hurt and killed or
whatever and you didn't move over. I'm just saying, if
a cop observes you not moving over when it was
clear that you could not see this person that's on
the side of the road. You're not going to get stopped,
are you. It's clear you can't see him, Lucy.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
I don't think that the jails are going to be
overflowing with people who are flouting the new move over
law in situations like you described, fine, we know what
we're really going after, which brings us to the second
part of this law. There are some drivers out there
who are just god awful. They're just they're dangerous and
(24:43):
they don't care. So they see whether it's a tow truck,
a car that's broken down, or a police officer has
pulled someone over, and people are like, I don't care,
and it just flying by really close to where they
are on the side of the road because they are dangerous,
terrible drivers. The other part of this law, in addition
(25:05):
do you have to move over, is to as I mentioned,
combat speeding, reckless driving and speeding complaints one of the
top complaints they get at the sheriff's office, says Douglas
County Sheriff Aaron Hanson. The story here from KTV News
Watch seven. They said, so far this year, troopers across
(25:26):
Nebraska stopped eight hundred and forty drivers for driving more
than one hundred miles per hour. One hundred and sixty
nine of those are right here in the Omaha metro
and it could be five times that many. That's just
outside where I live out in northwest Omaha. I hear
him every night. I see him. I saw him as
(25:46):
I drove home last night, some guy in a motorcycle
who was just really annoyed that he had to wait
for a very slight, little sliver of space to open
up so he could weave in and out of vehicles
and go probably twice the speed limit on the Dodge Expressway.
And these are and it says here like, okay, so
if now under this new law it takes effect today,
(26:09):
speeding fines have increased up about forty dollars if you're
going one to five miles over the speed limit. Okay,
I'm not a complete speeding prood. If I get pulled
over going two miles over the speed limit and get
a ticket for now fifty dollars, yes, I'm going to
(26:32):
be annoyed. You ever been pulled over for going one
to five miles over the speed limit? I think it's
different if you're in a residential area, but if you're
going down I eighty and you get pulled over for
going one mile over the speed limit. That's never happened, right, Yes,
it has. It happened to a friend of mine. Is
(26:55):
he was driving a work truck to Lincoln for a delivery,
got hold over. On the way to Lincoln. He was
going probably seven to ten miles over. He was speeding.
And then on the way back now he's taking it easy.
He thinks he's going the speed limit, got pulled over,
got a ticket. He got ticket at both times for
(27:15):
going one mile over the speed limit. That is not
your lucky day.
Speaker 3 (27:21):
Was it the same cop?
Speaker 2 (27:23):
I don't know. It was the same truck, which makes
me think that maybe that business should have treated people better.
The cops are like, oh, yeah, those guys are shysters
and we're gonna make their lives miserable.
Speaker 3 (27:37):
No, they don't do that.
Speaker 2 (27:40):
I don't know. We're all human. So if you're unlucky
enough to get pulled over one to five over, it
used to be a ten dollars ticket, Now it's fifty
six to ten. Used to be twenty five now it's
seventy five. Eleven to fifteen used to be seventy five
now one twenty five, sixteen to twenty it's be one
hundred and twenty five. Now it's two hundred. Do I
(28:02):
sound like an auctioneer? Twenty one to thirty five? Two
hundred hour up, three hundred and thirty six over, that's
three and a half four hundred. Got all that. The
big one, though, is if you're speeding more than twice
the posted speed limit, that's not just a fine, that's
now reckless driving. And say it with me, what do
you mean now reckless driving? This wasn't reckless driving before,
(28:29):
and Sheriff Hansen tells Channel seven he says, look, the
numbers show that even if you speed, you're only going
to derive at your destination maybe a minute or two sooner.
It's just not worth it. Look the people who are
out there doing the excessive speeding, the weaving in and
out of traffic, the going one hundred miles an hour,
(28:49):
they're not late for anything. These people have nothing going
on in their lives. They're not in a hurry. They're
just a holes. And I fully support not just finding them,
not just charging them with reckless driving, but I support
crushing their cars like aluminum cans with the drivers still
(29:13):
in the car.
Speaker 1 (29:14):
Scott boordees there you're going News Radio eleven.
Speaker 2 (29:17):
Ten Kfab Scott at kfab dot com. Bruce in the
Zonker's custom was inbox says new law. There have been
signs on I eighty for a long time indicating you
have to move over. Yes for emergency vehicles roadside assistance.
(29:37):
This new law says you have to move over or
you could be ticketed for anybody bicyclist, pedestrians, a car
that's broken down with a tow truck, or the emergency
vehicle hasn't gotten there yet, you have to pull. You
have to move over. It wins safe to do so,
or slow down to try and give them as much space,
(30:01):
Which brings us to this email. Ken says, what happens
if there's a line of traffic and nobody lets you merge?
Do you just stop and create another hazard?
Speaker 3 (30:13):
No?
Speaker 2 (30:14):
You slow down, Just slow down, move over if you can.
Why because I got this email from Terry says my
ex husband was hit and killed while working on the
highway near Aurora. No, she didn't hit him, she says,
(30:40):
you know this is the Yeah, it was her ex husband,
but it's her children's dad. She says it was a
nightmare for us. To say the least. The woman who
hit him and killed him was speeding. Didn't even break
for the emergency vehicles. This law is so important, says Terry.
People need to slow down and pay attention. His name
(31:02):
was David. This was in the news. The governor flew
flags half staff on the day of his funeral. Thank
you for promoting and talking about this important matter. That's
from Terry, said to Scott at kfab dot com. That's
why you have to pay attention while driving. This is
Voorhees Driving school. And by the way, the like the
(31:25):
big driving schools, Cornhusker and the rest of them, they'll
charge you like five hundred dollars for three days in
a driving test. I'll do it for two hundred dollars
and I'll just do it here on the radio. Here's it.
Here's the thing, quit bean, such a jack and ape
while driving. And here's how you can tell. Do you
(31:50):
look in your rear view mirror and see people constantly
flipping you off and like swerving around behind you? When
you look in your rear mirror, do you see a
pile of cars all piled up behind you because of
something you may or may not have done. I don't know.
It's hard for you to tell. You barely even looked
up from what you were doing. You are a bad driver.
(32:11):
Do people hank at you a lot? Have you seen
more middle fingers than you might find.
Speaker 3 (32:19):
In a morning show with Scott If i'm it's better.
Speaker 2 (32:23):
Than what I was going to say, but yes, you
know that, then that's on you. You're like the person that says, man,
my lost My last seven bosses were all jerks. All
of them. Huh well were they? Why? Well, they kept
telling me I had to work like, oh okay, So
that's all. Seven of them were all terrible. Might you
(32:44):
know the only common denominator here is you quit being
such a jerk, pay attention, be decent to your fellow man,
not women. It's still a Scott voices. When we have
so many different stories, the only thing that really ties
(33:05):
them together is the fact that they have something to
do with the President of the United States. When this happens,
which could happen every single day, but we don't do
it every single day, we put them together in something
we call a Trump dates. He's all right, here we go. First,
(33:36):
we have the trending hashtag over the weekend that some
variation of hashtag Trump dead or Trump died was trending
over the weekend. If you were on ex Twitter, it
became pretty clear after checking out the trending hashtag that
it was a really sick, dark satirical joke of sorts.
(34:00):
What could possibly be funny about this, Well, it seems
to me that the I hate to use the phrase
joke when talking about something so upsetting as a president dying,
especially in office. The joke was is that President Trump
(34:20):
is in front of the media, like every hour you
listen to the radio, you look up at the TV,
you see a truth social post, and it just seems
like he's just every fifteen to twenty minutes, it's oh,
the President is doing an impromptu news conference. Oh there's
a president walking out to his plane. He's talking to
the media. The President is doing a special event with
(34:44):
the head of state. The President has just tweeted out
something about we're going to teariff these countries or we're
not going to the teariff them. It just kind of
depends on how I'm feeling. And it was noted that
he hadn't done that in a couple of days. So
the only explanation if Trump's not out there doing news
(35:04):
conference after news conference, the only explanation, again, this is
dark satire. The only explanation is he must be dead.
That was what that whole trending hashtag was about. The
President wasn't aware of it. He was asked about it
at a news conference yesterday when he was there at
(35:27):
the White House, very alive. No one's ever been more
alive than me. Frankly, he was asked about it, like,
what do you think about the thought that people thought
you were dead over the weekend. He's like, I don't
know anything about it, Like are you feeling okay? Trump
said the speculation was fake news and said I was
(35:48):
very active over the weekend. It's true. There weren't even
glimpses of him visiting a golf course or anything. I
don't know what he did over the Labor Day weekend.
He said he was very busy. But now the media
is like, was he okay? Because we've seen here's what
they said. He's been seen with bruising on the back
(36:10):
of his right hand. Everyone right now is picturing President
Trump just pimp slapping. I don't know pick the victim.
So he's got bruising on the back of his right hand,
and it's noted here that sometimes it's poorly concealed with makeup.
(36:34):
They also the media says, we've noticed swelling around his ankles. No,
you have not. When have you seen President Trump's ankles?
What he we saw he was at the beach. He
and Baron went down to the beach. They were throwing
the football around there on the beach. You have not
(36:54):
noticed swelling around his ankles. Even if he has swelling
around his ankles, they're half the size of Hillary's ankles.
The White House, you don't know she uh the Secret Service.
(37:15):
I have this on good authority from someone who is
in the know.
Speaker 3 (37:21):
Oh okay.
Speaker 2 (37:22):
They told me that the Secret Service code name for
the first Lady during those years was fankles. That was yeah,
that's short for fat ankles. So I'm not Hey, you
argue with me, You can argue with the Secret Service
of the United States.
Speaker 3 (37:38):
These people would take it, would do that, these people.
Speaker 2 (37:41):
Would take a bullet for those fankles. I'm not here
to criticize what they do or don't say behind closed
doors and the loudmouth radio hosts. That's not for me
to to do.
Speaker 3 (37:52):
Well, you know your place, that's right, they said.
Speaker 2 (37:57):
The White House said that the President has been diagnosed
with chronic venus insufficiency, which means veins in his legs
can't properly carry blood back to the heart, which can
pool in the lower legs. Is fairly common condition in
older adults. President Trump says, Look, you know, the bruising
on the hand is from frequent handshaking and the use
(38:21):
of aspirin, which can cause more blood bleeds, more bruising
in that kind of thing. I bet the because when
President Trump goes in for a handshake, he tries to
crush your knuckles. Scott, how do you know you'd never
shaken his hand? Yes, I have, and he has a
very firm handshake. And when you view I have when
(38:43):
I met him down at Trump International Golf Course at
mar A Laga a few years ago. That's right. I
did shake the President's hand and then he backhanded me.
It's just something he does. He's like, where are you from.
We're from Nebraskah. I love to that's for the second district, frankly. So, yeah,
(39:04):
when you start doing the firm handshake with people, they
start trying to firm handshake you back, and then you
grip tighter, and they grip tighter. Next thing you know,
you got the leaders of America and France trying to
break each other's hands off. So a president said, I'm great,
I'm not dead. I feel happy. I've never felt better
(39:25):
in my life.
Speaker 3 (39:25):
I think I'll go for a walk.
Speaker 2 (39:27):
I'll want to go for a walk. I don't want
to go in the court. Frankly, so the the trending
hashtag that the Trump that the president had passed away
not true. Something else that may or may not be true. Now,
this one's weird. The last one wasn't weird, not as
weird as this. There's video showing someone opening a window
(39:52):
on the I guess the second floor of the White House,
opening the windows, standing with one foot on the windowsill,
and chucking something out of the window of the White House.
Have you seen this video? Like a big bag or
a big set.
Speaker 3 (40:08):
It looks like a book at one because I think
they threw two things out. One of them looked like a.
Speaker 2 (40:13):
Book, according to what people said they're seeing on I look,
I couldn't. It looked like a bag. It was like
a long white something like a like something rolled up
in the bed sheet, a body. What do we do
with it? Yeah, rolling up in the sheet, chucking out
the window. No one will know. It's just the White
(40:34):
House in the middle of the afternoon. So something a
long white item and then a small black bag or
maybe a book was tossed. Was appeared to be tossed
out of the window on the east side of the
White House from the second floor. So they asked the
President about it yesterday. He says, I don't know what
you're talking about. And they showed it like I think
(40:56):
it was a Doocey from Fox News showed him on
his phone this and the President said, that's probably ai
fake news. It's got to be fake. And he said
the windows are heavy and sealed shut.
Speaker 3 (41:09):
He said, oh, look at my house, like.
Speaker 2 (41:14):
Your mouth should be what one The President said, the
First Lady would like to get some fresh air through here,
but we can't open the windows. This was also a
complaint a former First Lady, Michelle Obama. She was on
Ellen de Generes's show, and she said, the windows in
our house don't open.
Speaker 3 (41:35):
So we have collaboration.
Speaker 2 (41:37):
Collaboration. Yeah, couple of administrations say you can't open the
windows and even if I mean, I guess if you could,
the President says, there are strong, heavy bulletproof windows that
have to weigh about six hundred pounds. No one's a
bigger authority on the potential weight of a window. So
(41:58):
it does seem unlikely that you can just oh, yeah,
we installed new windows the White House here with it
as little as one finger is real easy to open
the window at the White House. I mean, that's it
seems unlikely. It also seems unlikely that it would be
a contractor doing some maintenance at the White House over
the weekend while the President was gone. We're doing a
(42:20):
little maintenance and we're just chucking stuff out of the window.
It seems unlikely, but that's what the White House said
it was. So the White House, when asked about it,
said the video was quote a contractor who was doing
regular maintenance while the President was gone, unquote. Then the
President came out and said, that's fake news, that's probably
(42:44):
AI video. Like, well, if it's AI video, why wouldn't
it be something more entertaining, you know, like the portrait
of President Biden being chucked out the window or something
like that.
Speaker 3 (42:57):
Right, I would go with something more entertaining, Like.
Speaker 2 (43:01):
If if I'm doing an AI video, I want to
hear the president going this dark computer doesn't work, and
then you see a computer being thrown out the window,
smashing the glass. I mean, if you're gonna do AI,
it's got to be something. It's kind of funny, right right,
But this one it wasn't funny, but it's highly believable.
It certainly looks like a guy who's opened the window
(43:24):
to the White House and is throwing something out. And
then the White House said, yeah, I was a contractor
what contractor either thought or was told, yeah, just throw
it out the window there on the east lawn.
Speaker 3 (43:36):
So there wasn't anything below the window, like a container
or anything like that.
Speaker 2 (43:41):
No, they didn't do a big affordable container's dumpster out there,
like yeah, just back it up here on the east
side of the White House.
Speaker 3 (43:51):
They're just throwing it out. What else do you want
to put in there?
Speaker 2 (43:57):
Elon said, all this stuff's got to go, So yeah,
just put the dumpster on the east lot of the
White House. Don't worry about the gardens. Well, it'll grow
back and uh, and then I don't know, I don't know,
but it's weird. That the President said it's fake, but
the White House said it's a contract and it's not weird.
And then and then so the timeline is video gets circulated,
(44:20):
the White House says it was a contractor President said
it's fake, and then the White House won't say anything.
They're not saying anything about it now. They have they
have yet to respond to. What in the heck? That
was all about? What else here with the president? What
do you know? A federal peel's court has told the
President he can't do something that he was doing on
(44:40):
what subject? All of them, it's just all of them.
He's speaking right now with the leader of Poland discussing
some trade deals. We'll get a Fox News update on
that here in ten minutes. But it's also a different
group today, that's meeting that the President is very interested in.
In China today, President Ji Jenping thought he'd have a
(45:02):
couple of friends over. They had a military parade and
in the invited guests included Russian leader of Vladimir Putin
and North Korean dictator Kim Jong un, who brought his
daughter who is thought to be the next leader of
North Korea. That's fine, she looks sweet. She looks like
(45:25):
a nice young lady. She'll probably be the most bloodthirsty
leader since Attila the Hun. That'd be kind of fun.
And I hope that Kim Jong un decides like I'm
a step down. I've always wanted to pursue my dream
of Major League Baseball or whatever. And she becomes the
leader of North Korea at the age of twelve, and
(45:45):
suddenly it's just like the news is yet another nation
today was taken over by the North Korean military. Like
she's just like, I won't stop until I get the
whole world. It's the twelve year old leader of North
Korea and Greta Dunberg who taking over the world together.
And everyone's like, we should have taken them a lot
more seriously, know it? So Putin and Jinping are leading
(46:11):
this military parade in China today. President Trump noted the occasion,
posting on truth social and I quote, may President Ji
and the wonderful people of China have a great and
lasting day of celebration. Please give my warmest regards to
Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Un as you conspire against
(46:32):
the United States of America. Unquote. That's I promise you
what he posted today on truth social the Kremlin said, no, no,
no one's plotting any conspiracies. No one's plotting anything. It's
to mark the eightieth anniversary of the end of World
(46:54):
War Two, so that's I don't know why. I don't
know why these guys would have to be there to
do it in China, but that's what they've done everyone.
It's all about the optics here. I don't know what
they're up to, but it's not just like, oh, I
(47:15):
heard Beijing as lovely this time of year, and that
is our Trump date.
Speaker 1 (47:34):
Scott Voices News Radio eleven ten Kfaby
Scott Vorhees.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
Here you are. You're listening to the radio. I'm talking
on the radio. This is a connection that few people
can make because few people choose to turn into tune
into this radio show, probably because I can't even know
the difference between turn in and tune in. Yeah, we
are turning in. Like just go to sleep at night
to listen to you on the radio. Scott. I know.
(00:22):
I get your emails. They come in all the time
via the Zonker's Custom wo's inbox. Scott at kfab dot com.
Good morning. My name is Scott Vorhees. Lucy Chapman is
right there wearing the same shirt I wore for second
grade picture day in nineteen eighty four.
Speaker 3 (00:39):
Yeah, it looks like so is the one you're wearing now, Linus. No,
Charlie Brown.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
Sitting the Charlie Brown's shirt is white with a black
jagged stripe.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
This is exactly what you're wearing, and that.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
By the way, is exactly what I'm wearing, except the
colors are different. It's a black shirt with a yellow
jagged stripe. Here a whole the microphone really close to
my shirt so you can see it.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
Oh, there we go.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
Now you do the same we're gonna do that.
Speaker 3 (01:11):
I can't find it.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
I'm holding for applause. I'm not all right. Here's the
latest thing that our sheriff, Douglas County Sheriff Aaron Hanson,
has done, just to just to tweak people. And my
favorite thing about tweaking people is when it's done subtly.
This was sent to me yesterday by someone in the know.
(01:44):
This wasn't a press release at least not that I saw.
Maybe I ignored it. Sorry, This is just something that's
now posted on the Douglas County website. If you go
to the Douglas County Sheriff's Office, there's a new page
on there. It's the Douglas County Share Griffs Sheltering Assistance
Program and it says on there help us house those
(02:08):
who are living intent encampments in Douglas County. The Sheltering
Assistance Program allows Douglas County residents to volunteer to temporarily
house individuals who are experiencing housing instability. And it is
a document you fill out. It says at the end
(02:28):
there's a disclaimer. Just like with any public document, I
certify that the information and government issued identification I provided
it is true and complete to the best of my
knowledge and believe I understand that the information will be
used to conduct a background check, and I am aware
that falsifying information may lead to criminal charges. So it
is up there with the Douglas County Seal and it
(02:49):
says this film must be or part of me. This
form must be filled out completely in order to be considered.
First your personal information full name, address, city, state, zip code, email,
phone number, and then a question do any miners live
in the household? Yes? Or no? Those would be minor children,
not those who go down into the caves. And then
(03:13):
it says under housing considerations, and you click or you
check or circle yes or no. I am willing to
house these individuals for at least blank months, and you
fill in there, so you would fill in there like
I think I'd be willing to for the next six months.
You're right, in a six how's the following individuals? And
(03:35):
you can choose yes or no. A family, a person
with a pet or pets, a felon or repeat offender,
a sex offender, a person with unaddressed addiction challenges, a
person with unaddressed mental health challenges. And then you circle,
(03:58):
Yes or no, I expect to be compensated for my participation.
I think under some circumstances, I would expect to be
compensated for my participation. In other circumstances, I might expect
to pay for such I mean some people. And you're
going to house a sex offender with unaddressed mental health challenges?
(04:18):
How much not you pay me? I'm saying this could
really lifen up my house. This is the spice of
life I'm looking for. By the way, Lucy, your microphone
is still on the entire time.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
Oh look at that?
Speaker 2 (04:37):
Yeah, how about that? Okay, So if you want to
do all that stuff, fill all this out, and then
you can check which housing accommodations you are willing to
provide a person who's living on the streets, who may
or may not be a sex offender with unaddressed addiction
and mental health challenges. You can be willing to provide
a bedroom, a couch, a converted garage space, food, rights
(05:00):
to treatment, or other. I mean you can put in
there like jet ski. Does this person like to jet ski?
I have a jet ski? I'd be willing to provide
a jet ski? And then yes or no, I have
a license, or I have experience providing behavioral health care
treatment and substance abuse treatment, and then you sign and
(05:23):
date it and you send it into the Douglas County
Sheriff's office. And no one is going to do this,
and they know this. This, this is a brilliant form
of subtle satire to argue against the people that say
it is absolutely inhumane and unnecessary for law enforcement to
(05:45):
do anything about Omaha's growing homeless problem. When the sheriff
goes out there and you have limited resources from a
law enforcement standpoint, a legal standpoint, to remove someone from
a situation that's dangerous to themselves. If you stay out here,
you will die, dangerous to others. Some of the people
(06:07):
who are living on the streets are a danger not
just to you and your family walking around, but other
homeless people who they're attacking and abusing and assaulting on
a regular basis. They are a trespassing nuisance in businesses
(06:29):
and private property. They're aggressively panhandling people in the streets.
And when the sheriff comes up and says, okay, it's time,
you can't you can't do this, and suddenly all these
activists come out and say how dare you? This is
so inhumane? And then the sheriff says, what exactly are
you doing about it? What? All these people say, Hey,
(06:51):
you can't do that. What are you doing about it?
We're we're the ones that get called out, someone calls
nine to one one, cops show up, we're cops. What
do you want us to do about it? If the
answer is nothing, just leave them be. We can't leave
them be. We're seeing people die, We're seeing people get attacked,
We're seeing people get trafficked, We're seeing people get hooked
(07:14):
on drugs. We're seeing business owners say, hey, what do
you mean you can't do anything about it? This guy
shows up, drops trou and purges his bilge in the
lobby of my hotel every morning at ten o'clock, you know,
like he's a like the wake up call, and you
guys can't do anything about it. And the activists say, no,
(07:37):
don't touch them, don't you leave them alone. So the
Douglas County Sheriff's Office has a new Sheltering Assistance program
to tell the activists, okay, says you care so much
about these people, how many of them are you willing
to take in for how long does it matter to
(07:57):
you whether they are a felon, a repeat offender, a
sex offender with unaddressed addiction and mental health challenges? And
are they going to sleep in a do you have
a bedroom? Are they on the couch? Are you providing food?
Rides to treatment? Are you a behavioral healthcare practitioner? Sign
(08:21):
and date? Fill it in and we will take them.
We will be very happy to take them from living
at fifteenth in north of Coming Street and we'll bring
them right over to your house. Thank you for providing
your full name and address. We'll bring them right to
your house. You know, just Avon calling. Sorry, not Avon.
(08:44):
It's the Douglas County Sheriff's office with a vanload full
of homeless people. And I know people are like, this
is disgusting. You think this as a joke. No, this
isn't meant to be funny, darkly satirical, absolutely funny. Haha,
(09:05):
laugh out loud. That's the funniest thing I've seen all day. No,
nothing about this funny. But apparently the fact that these
activists say, don't you do anything two or for these
people they're doing just fine as they're as they're fine,
just letting them die, especially whereas we're going into the
(09:27):
winter months here in Omaha. This is to tell them,
all right, you care so much about these people, have
you given any thought to what happens to them if
you allow them to live on the streets. Cause we
can't put them in jail very long and you're not
(09:48):
taking them in, So what exactly do you think is
going to happen here? That's the Douglas County Sheriffs Sheltering
Assistance Program. Bravo Sheriff Hansen and his staff. I am
a big fan of dark satire. Now this other thing
is real. That's real life. But this is a new
(10:10):
law that goes Actually it's two. You've only heard about one,
the move over law, which says that if you are
going through a department store and you're taking up the
entire aisle as I'm trying to get through with my cart,
you got to move over otherwise I'm allowed to stab
you that.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
Okay, I had not heard about that.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
Checking to see if Lucy's paying attention. That's not the law,
though it should be, Man, it should be. Excuse me,
can you get the get out of.
Speaker 3 (10:43):
Maybe just like POKEM get him with your car.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
A little one person stab is another person's poke.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
Well, just a little bump with the cart.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
I barely broke the skin, but I didn't hit in
the arteries. It's a It was an aggressive poke. It
was a meaningful poke.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
But did you use a lead pencil?
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Aka stab? I have a which hand? Is it my
left one? See the scar right here? Yes, that's from
a lead pencil, digging directly like from my pointer finger
down to my thumb. I have a scar from a
lead pencil. I don't remember what I was doing. I
think I was obviously goofing around in class as an
(11:25):
elementary student at Bloomfield Elementary Home with the Mighty Mighty Bobcats.
I was goofing around and my pencil slipped and cut
through this gap in my hand, and I remember looking
down at it, and when the skin opens up, you
can see the vein in there before the blood starts
(11:45):
to come all over the place. Is this gross? It's
not lunchtime yet, it's nine eighteen, and I remember looking
down and seeing blue before I saw red. And then
the teacher said time to go to gym class. Everyone
line up, and I'm standing there and I'm holding my
hand and I'm looking at it and blood running everywhere,
and we're going to gym class. And I finally get
in there and I find the gym teacher, the great
(12:07):
Missus Rocar, who I found out recently not to demean
her character, listens to this radio show once in a while.
I went up to her and I said, uh, Missus Rocar.
She looked at my head and said, go to the
principal's office. What do you go to the nurse? What
are you doing like? I don't know. My hand's falling off.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
You guys, were you were a little behind a little yeah, no,
a little ahead of whatever. Yeah, not the same class
as me.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
I'm much much younger than you, Is that what you're
trying to say?
Speaker 3 (12:37):
Younger? When we were in school, we just used pens
and drew on ourself. I don't know why you were
stabbing yourself.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
I didn't mean to stab myself, and I meant to
draw in my shoes or whatever I was doing drawing
menil well, I don't know I'd.
Speaker 3 (12:49):
Take a pen and weren't real smart?
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Were you draw on my trapper keeper? What I was
saying was we have a new move over law. But
that's not the only law the change that takes effect
in Nebraska to day. I'll tell you about it next.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
Scott Voice News Radio eleven ten kfaby.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
If you're driving down the road right now, look at
the shoulder, not your shoulder, the road shoulder.
Speaker 3 (13:19):
Well, if you said if you wanted them to look
at their shoulder, you would not have said the shoulder
unless they only had one shoulder.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
I have to be very specific otherwise people get confused.
Look up ahead on the shoulder. Is there someone pulled
off to the side of it? Well, I know I'm
supposed to move over for emergency or roadside assistance vehicles.
Certainly the law. Oh no, no, The law today states
(13:49):
you have to move over for everyone and everything. Is
there something parked up ahead on the shoulder? Can you
slow down and move over to the other lane? If so,
you have to otherwise that's a ticket. Can you If
there is no other lane, but there's someone up on
(14:11):
the you know, pulled off the side of the road,
you have to slow down and cautiously go around them.
You can't just drive it eight to twelve miles over
the speed limit like most people do and just fly
by there looking at your phone and almost hitting the
people on the side of the road. That's what you're doing.
Now that's against the law now as of today, whereas
(14:34):
the previous move over law only applied to nine to
one one like that's a whether it's fire, police or
ambulance or roadside assistance vehicles like a tow truck. You
had to move over for that stuff. Now drivers must
slow down and if possible, move over when approaching all
(14:55):
stopped vehicles and road users. That includes pedestrians, bicyclists, certainly
people on crosswalks, which you would stop for them anyway,
and some of these slow moving ag vehicles and equipment.
I love the people out there in a two lane
(15:17):
rural road and they're like, there's a giant, you know,
agg vehicle in the road. I don't know what this is,
some sort of sprayer giant thing can only go about
fifteen miles per hour. Hey, the speeling is fifty five, buddy,
move as you're feeding America. Don't inconvenience me as you're
(15:38):
out there working non stop.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
I sort of picture them saying, I don't know what
to do. Do I go around them?
Speaker 2 (15:46):
Can't John Deere or any of the people that make
this equipment can't they make something that goes at least
seventy five miles per hour? Wouldn't that be fun?
Speaker 3 (15:55):
Well, they can, but that's where you're going to find them,
in the lawnmower races at the county.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
Just do it. You've got you got one of these
giant tractors, you got a bunch of equipment on the
back of it, you got a big spreader hanging off
the side of it. Things taking up like nine lanes
of traffic and going eighty miles per hour. That'd be fun.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
I'd watch.
Speaker 2 (16:19):
Yeah, I would love to drive one of those. So
any there's anything there on the side of the road,
whether it's moving slowly like some of these ag vehicles,
or whether it's it's parked on the side of the road.
Like you got a car and you got some guy
who's got the hood raised on his old Geo tracker
(16:41):
and he's looking at it going I knew I shouldn't
have bought my girlfriend's car in nineteen ninety six. I
knew this wouldn't This wasn't gonna last for thirty years.
And now I've I've got the hood popped open and
I'm looking at the engine like I have, like I'm
trying to show anyone around me, like, yeah, if I
just stare at this thing, it ought to learn its
lesson succumb to the guilt. I'm giving it and start
(17:05):
up again. I don't have any idea when any of
these belts and hoses, all these various pistons and things
do I put an I put oil in here? Somewhere?
Someone does. I don't know. But I'm gonna sit here
and stare at this and I'm gonna touch this. Ooh,
that's hot. I love these guys popping the hood looking
(17:25):
in there like they had like they're just acting like
they have any idea what to do. They don't. Most
guys anymore don't. And I'm not criticizing you. I'm one
of you. I don't have any idea.
Speaker 3 (17:41):
I don't like what I like. The comedian it did
kind of a bit on that.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
Yeah, that said that was me just a moment ago.
Speaker 3 (17:48):
Oh that's right, Okay, never mind.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
What did this other hack say?
Speaker 3 (17:53):
He said, you guys, you open up the hoods and
you you prop it open, what do you expect to
find a giant on off witch?
Speaker 2 (18:01):
That's good, that's funnier what I said I once changed
a serpentine belt. I thought. I was like, I'm ready
to be in a pit crew. I'm probably like the
smartest guy ever lived. So now you've got to move
over if someone's popped the hood, you know, mock them
all you want as you drive by, and then you've
(18:27):
got to move over, slow down. If you don't, you
could get pulled over and you could get a ticket.
But that's not the only law that takes effect today.
As of today, reckless driving and speeding, the fines have
been jacked up. What constitutes now reckless driving has changed
(18:50):
a little bit. I will explain next.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
Scottes News Radio elevenfab.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
The wheat Fields seventies shaft inspired casserole ad is back
on the radio, which meant yesterday we got a bunch
of people emailing saying, yes, the Wheatfield's ad is back.
Speaker 3 (19:13):
I stopped in there yesterday. The new one eighty ninth
in Maple.
Speaker 2 (19:17):
Ron who is the man with the master planning? A
nine x thirteen pen ron from Wheatfield's popped in here
last week and we updated that ad with the new
tag there about the new location on on West Maple
And I asked him because we were doing it with
that ad and I said, who is that singer? And
(19:38):
they did that years ago. She was someone who worked
at the restaurant.
Speaker 3 (19:41):
Oh wow, yeah, she should have taken that career a
little further.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
Maybe she had. I said, does she still worked there?
And no, we don't know what happened to her. But
we had this idea and she said, yeah, I can
sing it, and she absolutely nailed it. And now she's
I don't know, tell me Houston. I don't know. It
could be I don't know who she is, but yeah,
that was just someone who was working at the restaurant.
Speaker 3 (20:06):
I also I got this job.
Speaker 2 (20:09):
Lucy was working at the Dundee Dell across the street
and Gary was in there. Gary and Kent were in there, going,
we need someone to do traffic reports in the morning,
and Lucy says, I can drive a car and she's
been on here ever since. She didn't quite understand what
the job was.
Speaker 3 (20:26):
But oh, you took my confession too far. I didn't
want people to.
Speaker 2 (20:32):
Know all that right. I also got some people emailed
last week and said, did you just play the nineteen
eighties Elton John diet Coke ad? Yes, yes, I did.
Didn't say anything about it. Just played it and moved on,
and I might do it again. It's one of my
favorite things ever. But back to traffic. Starting today, changes
(20:57):
to combat speeding are included in a new law, as
we mentioned a moment ago, says you have to move
over or slow down and move over as much as
possible without obviously like I moved over and I swerved
into oncoming traffic and I got hit by a bus. Like,
you don't have to move over that far. It's still
(21:17):
illegal to cross the center lane and crash headlong into
oncoming traffic. But if you're out there and you can
safely slow down, move over for vehicles on the side
of the road. That's not just emergency vehicles anymore, that's anything,
including bicyclists, move over. I understand that sometimes you got
(21:39):
a line of cars waiting behind old Lance Armstrong who
thinks he's on the Alps section of the Tour de Fronce,
and he's like, this is the uh, this is the
mountain part of the race, and I'm going up this incline.
The speed limit is forty I'm going fourteen miles an
hour and I'm giving it all. I got out here
(22:00):
or in my full body spandex. That was, I admit,
now a bad idea because other people would see me
in it. But I got my bike helmet on and
I'm just gonna greg leman my way up this hill. Meanwhile,
you got eighteen cars behind him going come on, move over,
get out the way. You know, hey, you gotta they've
got to move over to And then you got that.
Speaker 3 (22:22):
Brings up an interesting point though. If you've got somebody
on the side, let's say they're on the Interstate on
their bike. Now, first of all, they're not supposed to
be there, so.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
Yeah, you can hit them.
Speaker 3 (22:34):
Anybody that's doing that is already going to attract the
attention of the police because they're going to be asked
to move off of the interstate.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
I know they can. If you're on a bicycle bicycle
and you're going down the side of the Interstate, you
could hit the hitch hikers, and we don't want you
to do that.
Speaker 3 (22:51):
What that's true? Well, but until they are asked to
move off into a designated bike trail portion of the road,
then what are you supposed to do. Now you have
an entire line of cars that are suddenly going over
to the next lane.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
Well, I mean, you're not supposed to have a bicycle
on the interstate, but sometimes your car breaks down, you
move over the side of the road, and you've got
to move over for them too. So I don't know
what you're all about.
Speaker 3 (23:21):
What this law initially said was you have to move
over for law enforcement, for crashes.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
And roadside tow trucks, emergency police.
Speaker 3 (23:30):
You know what they all have in common, flashing lights.
So when you are when it is now a law
to move over for somebody who has just broke down,
which is as a great idea, of course you should
do that, but to be held criminally responsible if you
don't see them. I mean, what if it's dark but
they don't have flashing lights.
Speaker 2 (23:51):
Put your hazard's on.
Speaker 3 (23:53):
Well, that would be great for the person that's on
the side of the road to do that. Yeah, I'm
just saying there's got to be some some kind of
leeway in this law.
Speaker 2 (24:02):
I know.
Speaker 3 (24:03):
I'm not saying that somebody's been hurt and killed or
whatever and you didn't move over. I'm just saying, if
a cop observes you not moving over when it was
clear that you could not see this person that's on
the side of the road. You're not going to get stopped,
are you. It's clear you can't see him, Lucy.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
I don't think that the jails are going to be
overflowing with people who are flouting the new move over
law in situations like you described, fine, we know what
we're really going after, which brings us to the second
part of this law. There are some drivers out there
who are just god awful. They're just they're dangerous and
(24:43):
they don't care. So they see whether it's a tow truck,
a car that's broken down, or a police officer has
pulled someone over, and people are like, I don't care,
and it just flying by really close to where they
are on the side of the road because they are dangerous,
terrible drivers. The other part of this law, in addition
(25:05):
do you have to move over, is to as I mentioned,
combat speeding, reckless driving and speeding complaints one of the
top complaints they get at the sheriff's office, says Douglas
County Sheriff Aaron Hanson. The story here from KTV News
Watch seven. They said, so far this year, troopers across
(25:26):
Nebraska stopped eight hundred and forty drivers for driving more
than one hundred miles per hour. One hundred and sixty
nine of those are right here in the Omaha metro
and it could be five times that many. That's just
outside where I live out in northwest Omaha. I hear
him every night. I see him. I saw him as
(25:46):
I drove home last night, some guy in a motorcycle
who was just really annoyed that he had to wait
for a very slight, little sliver of space to open
up so he could weave in and out of vehicles
and go probably twice the speed limit on the Dodge Expressway.
And these are and it says here like, okay, so
if now under this new law it takes effect today,
(26:09):
speeding fines have increased up about forty dollars if you're
going one to five miles over the speed limit. Okay,
I'm not a complete speeding prood. If I get pulled
over going two miles over the speed limit and get
a ticket for now fifty dollars, yes, I'm going to
(26:32):
be annoyed. You ever been pulled over for going one
to five miles over the speed limit? I think it's
different if you're in a residential area, but if you're
going down I eighty and you get pulled over for
going one mile over the speed limit. That's never happened, right, Yes,
it has. It happened to a friend of mine. Is
(26:55):
he was driving a work truck to Lincoln for a delivery,
got hold over. On the way to Lincoln. He was
going probably seven to ten miles over. He was speeding.
And then on the way back now he's taking it easy.
He thinks he's going the speed limit, got pulled over,
got a ticket. He got ticket at both times for
(27:15):
going one mile over the speed limit. That is not
your lucky day.
Speaker 3 (27:21):
Was it the same cop?
Speaker 2 (27:23):
I don't know. It was the same truck, which makes
me think that maybe that business should have treated people better.
The cops are like, oh, yeah, those guys are shysters
and we're gonna make their lives miserable.
Speaker 3 (27:37):
No, they don't do that.
Speaker 2 (27:40):
I don't know. We're all human. So if you're unlucky
enough to get pulled over one to five over, it
used to be a ten dollars ticket, Now it's fifty
six to ten. Used to be twenty five now it's
seventy five. Eleven to fifteen used to be seventy five
now one twenty five, sixteen to twenty it's be one
hundred and twenty five. Now it's two hundred. Do I
(28:02):
sound like an auctioneer? Twenty one to thirty five? Two
hundred hour up, three hundred and thirty six over, that's
three and a half four hundred. Got all that. The
big one, though, is if you're speeding more than twice
the posted speed limit, that's not just a fine, that's
now reckless driving. And say it with me, what do
you mean now reckless driving? This wasn't reckless driving before,
(28:29):
and Sheriff Hansen tells Channel seven he says, look, the
numbers show that even if you speed, you're only going
to derive at your destination maybe a minute or two sooner.
It's just not worth it. Look the people who are
out there doing the excessive speeding, the weaving in and
out of traffic, the going one hundred miles an hour,
(28:49):
they're not late for anything. These people have nothing going
on in their lives. They're not in a hurry. They're
just a holes. And I fully support not just finding them,
not just charging them with reckless driving, but I support
crushing their cars like aluminum cans with the drivers still
(29:13):
in the car.
Speaker 1 (29:14):
Scott boordees there you're going News Radio eleven.
Speaker 2 (29:17):
Ten Kfab Scott at kfab dot com. Bruce in the
Zonker's custom was inbox says new law. There have been
signs on I eighty for a long time indicating you
have to move over. Yes for emergency vehicles roadside assistance.
(29:37):
This new law says you have to move over or
you could be ticketed for anybody bicyclist, pedestrians, a car
that's broken down with a tow truck, or the emergency
vehicle hasn't gotten there yet, you have to pull. You
have to move over. It wins safe to do so,
or slow down to try and give them as much space,
(30:01):
Which brings us to this email. Ken says, what happens
if there's a line of traffic and nobody lets you merge?
Do you just stop and create another hazard?
Speaker 3 (30:13):
No?
Speaker 2 (30:14):
You slow down, Just slow down, move over if you can.
Why because I got this email from Terry says my
ex husband was hit and killed while working on the
highway near Aurora. No, she didn't hit him, she says,
(30:40):
you know this is the Yeah, it was her ex husband,
but it's her children's dad. She says it was a
nightmare for us. To say the least. The woman who
hit him and killed him was speeding. Didn't even break
for the emergency vehicles. This law is so important, says Terry.
People need to slow down and pay attention. His name
(31:02):
was David. This was in the news. The governor flew
flags half staff on the day of his funeral. Thank
you for promoting and talking about this important matter. That's
from Terry, said to Scott at kfab dot com. That's
why you have to pay attention while driving. This is
Voorhees Driving school. And by the way, the like the
(31:25):
big driving schools, Cornhusker and the rest of them, they'll
charge you like five hundred dollars for three days in
a driving test. I'll do it for two hundred dollars
and I'll just do it here on the radio. Here's it.
Here's the thing, quit bean, such a jack and ape
while driving. And here's how you can tell. Do you
(31:50):
look in your rear view mirror and see people constantly
flipping you off and like swerving around behind you? When
you look in your rear mirror, do you see a
pile of cars all piled up behind you because of
something you may or may not have done. I don't know.
It's hard for you to tell. You barely even looked
up from what you were doing. You are a bad driver.
(32:11):
Do people hank at you a lot? Have you seen
more middle fingers than you might find.
Speaker 3 (32:19):
In a morning show with Scott If i'm it's better.
Speaker 2 (32:23):
Than what I was going to say, but yes, you
know that, then that's on you. You're like the person that says, man,
my lost My last seven bosses were all jerks. All
of them. Huh well were they? Why? Well, they kept
telling me I had to work like, oh okay, So
that's all. Seven of them were all terrible. Might you
(32:44):
know the only common denominator here is you quit being
such a jerk, pay attention, be decent to your fellow man,
not women. It's still a Scott voices. When we have
so many different stories, the only thing that really ties
(33:05):
them together is the fact that they have something to
do with the President of the United States. When this happens,
which could happen every single day, but we don't do
it every single day, we put them together in something
we call a Trump dates. He's all right, here we go. First,
(33:36):
we have the trending hashtag over the weekend that some
variation of hashtag Trump dead or Trump died was trending
over the weekend. If you were on ex Twitter, it
became pretty clear after checking out the trending hashtag that
it was a really sick, dark satirical joke of sorts.
(34:00):
What could possibly be funny about this, Well, it seems
to me that the I hate to use the phrase
joke when talking about something so upsetting as a president dying,
especially in office. The joke was is that President Trump
(34:20):
is in front of the media, like every hour you
listen to the radio, you look up at the TV,
you see a truth social post, and it just seems
like he's just every fifteen to twenty minutes, it's oh,
the President is doing an impromptu news conference. Oh there's
a president walking out to his plane. He's talking to
the media. The President is doing a special event with
(34:44):
the head of state. The President has just tweeted out
something about we're going to teariff these countries or we're
not going to the teariff them. It just kind of
depends on how I'm feeling. And it was noted that
he hadn't done that in a couple of days. So
the only explanation if Trump's not out there doing news
(35:04):
conference after news conference, the only explanation, again, this is
dark satire. The only explanation is he must be dead.
That was what that whole trending hashtag was about. The
President wasn't aware of it. He was asked about it
at a news conference yesterday when he was there at
(35:27):
the White House, very alive. No one's ever been more
alive than me. Frankly, he was asked about it, like,
what do you think about the thought that people thought
you were dead over the weekend. He's like, I don't
know anything about it, Like are you feeling okay? Trump
said the speculation was fake news and said I was
(35:48):
very active over the weekend. It's true. There weren't even
glimpses of him visiting a golf course or anything. I
don't know what he did over the Labor Day weekend.
He said he was very busy. But now the media
is like, was he okay? Because we've seen here's what
they said. He's been seen with bruising on the back
(36:10):
of his right hand. Everyone right now is picturing President
Trump just pimp slapping. I don't know pick the victim.
So he's got bruising on the back of his right hand,
and it's noted here that sometimes it's poorly concealed with makeup.
(36:34):
They also the media says, we've noticed swelling around his ankles. No,
you have not. When have you seen President Trump's ankles?
What he we saw he was at the beach. He
and Baron went down to the beach. They were throwing
the football around there on the beach. You have not
(36:54):
noticed swelling around his ankles. Even if he has swelling
around his ankles, they're half the size of Hillary's ankles.
The White House, you don't know she uh the Secret Service.
(37:15):
I have this on good authority from someone who is
in the know.
Speaker 3 (37:21):
Oh okay.
Speaker 2 (37:22):
They told me that the Secret Service code name for
the first Lady during those years was fankles. That was yeah,
that's short for fat ankles. So I'm not Hey, you
argue with me, You can argue with the Secret Service
of the United States.
Speaker 3 (37:38):
These people would take it, would do that, these people.
Speaker 2 (37:41):
Would take a bullet for those fankles. I'm not here
to criticize what they do or don't say behind closed
doors and the loudmouth radio hosts. That's not for me
to to do.
Speaker 3 (37:52):
Well, you know your place, that's right, they said.
Speaker 2 (37:57):
The White House said that the President has been diagnosed
with chronic venus insufficiency, which means veins in his legs
can't properly carry blood back to the heart, which can
pool in the lower legs. Is fairly common condition in
older adults. President Trump says, Look, you know, the bruising
on the hand is from frequent handshaking and the use
(38:21):
of aspirin, which can cause more blood bleeds, more bruising
in that kind of thing. I bet the because when
President Trump goes in for a handshake, he tries to
crush your knuckles. Scott, how do you know you'd never
shaken his hand? Yes, I have, and he has a
very firm handshake. And when you view I have when
(38:43):
I met him down at Trump International Golf Course at
mar A Laga a few years ago. That's right. I
did shake the President's hand and then he backhanded me.
It's just something he does. He's like, where are you from.
We're from Nebraskah. I love to that's for the second district, frankly. So, yeah,
(39:04):
when you start doing the firm handshake with people, they
start trying to firm handshake you back, and then you
grip tighter, and they grip tighter. Next thing you know,
you got the leaders of America and France trying to
break each other's hands off. So a president said, I'm great,
I'm not dead. I feel happy. I've never felt better
(39:25):
in my life.
Speaker 3 (39:25):
I think I'll go for a walk.
Speaker 2 (39:27):
I'll want to go for a walk. I don't want
to go in the court. Frankly, so the the trending
hashtag that the Trump that the president had passed away
not true. Something else that may or may not be true. Now,
this one's weird. The last one wasn't weird, not as
weird as this. There's video showing someone opening a window
(39:52):
on the I guess the second floor of the White House,
opening the windows, standing with one foot on the windowsill,
and chucking something out of the window of the White House.
Have you seen this video? Like a big bag or
a big set.
Speaker 3 (40:08):
It looks like a book at one because I think
they threw two things out. One of them looked like a.
Speaker 2 (40:13):
Book, according to what people said they're seeing on I look,
I couldn't. It looked like a bag. It was like
a long white something like a like something rolled up
in the bed sheet, a body. What do we do
with it? Yeah, rolling up in the sheet, chucking out
the window. No one will know. It's just the White
(40:34):
House in the middle of the afternoon. So something a
long white item and then a small black bag or
maybe a book was tossed. Was appeared to be tossed
out of the window on the east side of the
White House from the second floor. So they asked the
President about it yesterday. He says, I don't know what
you're talking about. And they showed it like I think
(40:56):
it was a Doocey from Fox News showed him on
his phone this and the President said, that's probably ai
fake news. It's got to be fake. And he said
the windows are heavy and sealed shut.
Speaker 3 (41:09):
He said, oh, look at my house, like.
Speaker 2 (41:14):
Your mouth should be what one The President said, the
First Lady would like to get some fresh air through here,
but we can't open the windows. This was also a
complaint a former First Lady, Michelle Obama. She was on
Ellen de Generes's show, and she said, the windows in
our house don't open.
Speaker 3 (41:35):
So we have collaboration.
Speaker 2 (41:37):
Collaboration. Yeah, couple of administrations say you can't open the
windows and even if I mean, I guess if you could,
the President says, there are strong, heavy bulletproof windows that
have to weigh about six hundred pounds. No one's a
bigger authority on the potential weight of a window. So
(41:58):
it does seem unlikely that you can just oh, yeah,
we installed new windows the White House here with it
as little as one finger is real easy to open
the window at the White House. I mean, that's it
seems unlikely. It also seems unlikely that it would be
a contractor doing some maintenance at the White House over
the weekend while the President was gone. We're doing a
(42:20):
little maintenance and we're just chucking stuff out of the window.
It seems unlikely, but that's what the White House said
it was. So the White House, when asked about it,
said the video was quote a contractor who was doing
regular maintenance while the President was gone, unquote. Then the
President came out and said, that's fake news, that's probably
(42:44):
AI video. Like, well, if it's AI video, why wouldn't
it be something more entertaining, you know, like the portrait
of President Biden being chucked out the window or something
like that.
Speaker 3 (42:57):
Right, I would go with something more entertaining, Like.
Speaker 2 (43:01):
If if I'm doing an AI video, I want to
hear the president going this dark computer doesn't work, and
then you see a computer being thrown out the window,
smashing the glass. I mean, if you're gonna do AI,
it's got to be something. It's kind of funny, right right,
But this one it wasn't funny, but it's highly believable.
It certainly looks like a guy who's opened the window
(43:24):
to the White House and is throwing something out. And
then the White House said, yeah, I was a contractor
what contractor either thought or was told, yeah, just throw
it out the window there on the east lawn.
Speaker 3 (43:36):
So there wasn't anything below the window, like a container
or anything like that.
Speaker 2 (43:41):
No, they didn't do a big affordable container's dumpster out there,
like yeah, just back it up here on the east
side of the White House.
Speaker 3 (43:51):
They're just throwing it out. What else do you want
to put in there?
Speaker 2 (43:57):
Elon said, all this stuff's got to go, So yeah,
just put the dumpster on the east lot of the
White House. Don't worry about the gardens. Well, it'll grow
back and uh, and then I don't know, I don't know,
but it's weird. That the President said it's fake, but
the White House said it's a contract and it's not weird.
And then and then so the timeline is video gets circulated,
(44:20):
the White House says it was a contractor President said
it's fake, and then the White House won't say anything.
They're not saying anything about it now. They have they
have yet to respond to. What in the heck? That
was all about? What else here with the president? What
do you know? A federal peel's court has told the
President he can't do something that he was doing on
(44:40):
what subject? All of them, it's just all of them.
He's speaking right now with the leader of Poland discussing
some trade deals. We'll get a Fox News update on
that here in ten minutes. But it's also a different
group today, that's meeting that the President is very interested in.
In China today, President Ji Jenping thought he'd have a
(45:02):
couple of friends over. They had a military parade and
in the invited guests included Russian leader of Vladimir Putin
and North Korean dictator Kim Jong un, who brought his
daughter who is thought to be the next leader of
North Korea. That's fine, she looks sweet. She looks like
(45:25):
a nice young lady. She'll probably be the most bloodthirsty
leader since Attila the Hun. That'd be kind of fun.
And I hope that Kim Jong un decides like I'm
a step down. I've always wanted to pursue my dream
of Major League Baseball or whatever. And she becomes the
leader of North Korea at the age of twelve, and
(45:45):
suddenly it's just like the news is yet another nation
today was taken over by the North Korean military. Like
she's just like, I won't stop until I get the
whole world. It's the twelve year old leader of North
Korea and Greta Dunberg who taking over the world together.
And everyone's like, we should have taken them a lot
more seriously, know it? So Putin and Jinping are leading
(46:11):
this military parade in China today. President Trump noted the occasion,
posting on truth social and I quote, may President Ji
and the wonderful people of China have a great and
lasting day of celebration. Please give my warmest regards to
Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Un as you conspire against
(46:32):
the United States of America. Unquote. That's I promise you
what he posted today on truth social the Kremlin said, no, no,
no one's plotting any conspiracies. No one's plotting anything. It's
to mark the eightieth anniversary of the end of World
(46:54):
War Two, so that's I don't know why. I don't
know why these guys would have to be there to
do it in China, but that's what they've done everyone.
It's all about the optics here. I don't know what
they're up to, but it's not just like, oh, I
(47:15):
heard Beijing as lovely this time of year, and that
is our Trump date.
