We sadly announce the passing of our local Country Legend, a man who helped shape country music, Buck Owens 76 years old. Buck Owens drove home on Saturday night after performing at The Crystal Palace then passed in his sleep at his home in North Bakersfield. He was loved by many and will be missed.
Since coming to Bakersfield we had a plan to use our Dinner-For-Two tickets at Buck Owens Crystal Palace SteakHouse, but never found the "right time". Even though Buck won't be there any longer we plan to go soon to pay our respects and watch Buck's Band The Buckaroo's play.
If you want to listen to some Buck Owens tunes, watch a few video clips and see what's happening in Bakersfield, on KUZZ Radio and at the Crystal Palace click HERE or the picture below.

Spring Has Sprung

Pic' From Website http://humanities.uchicago.edu/images/heures/march.jpg
Celebrating March The Beginning of Spring
This week we want to celebrate March. Spring has officially begun and we are thankful the days are getting longer and warmer. Even though we are in the more moderate area of the U.S.A. called lovingly the bottom of Northern California being the Grapevine on Interstate 5 is a mere 35 miles from Us. This is the Mountain Range that separates what is Northern and Southern California. It has been a long cold winter for us though not merely as bad as other parts of USA. We have room to whine being sacrifices we had to bear with heating bills being higher this year as others have suffered we're sure you're also included. California can be cold too, braced up against the Grapevine to the South and the Tehachapi to the East of Us it gets quite briskly chilly, the type that seems to as they say Cut You to the bone cold even in Bakersfield. Yes Quite a New Learning Experience though the what is called by Bakersfieldians the Deathly Fog as warned against wasn't as evident this Year due to a lower Rain season.
Oh No the Thrills of New Home Ownership...True Fixer Upper to Boot
The new house was cold and damp inside and we wondered if the previous, temporary residents had gone without heat all winter. We know for sure that our new homes natural gas had been shut off so it could be tented and bombed for termites, earwigs, roaches, ants and other creatures. Traditionally the main gas line is shut off before the home is tented, for safety reasons. When we moved in and had the natural gas turned back on the heating furnace didn't work.
Thank God for New Home Owner Warranties...Make sure included in New Home Mortgage
Weeks went by and finally after we were sure our home-owners insurance was going to cover it, and we had all battled the various flu's and colds of the season long enough, we called in a furnace repair company. The repairman checked it, then took a part off our furnace and left. It was a Friday in the afternoon and after he left we looked at the time shaking our heads knowing we wouldn't be seeing him until the following week. Nearly another week went by, Yes Thursday to be exact, before he returned with the part to fix it.
What an incredible difference a little heat can do! We were amazed at how the heat brought us back to life. We could finally shed all those layers of sweaters, socks and sweat pants. The dampness inside the house from the winter months without heat had vanished and we were warm again.
LindseyGurl Update
Our Hats Go Off To You Lindsey!
Linds has been present in school without missing a single day so far. Even though she has been the first recipient of the colds and flu's we've gotten her school attendance has been perfect. Her new school, Beardsley Middle School is located about one and a half miles South East of our house. She rides the school bus to and from school which picks up and drops off about 3 blocks away.
There have been rumors that our Lindsey, or Linds or Lindseygurl hasn't been participating in the home projects we've been doing around here. It is true she is supposed to visit with her Dad every other weekend and that is usually the main time we do our big projects.
Just for the record, to dis-spell these myths we, along with the help of the Local Paparazzi aka Our Digital Camera and Big Dream to Capture the Moment have obtained proof that Lindsey has been doing some Work to help beautify our new home after all.
See for yourself! Click HERE to view a short slideshow of Lindsey Working.
Yes even Linds to can from time to time as a thriving loving 13 Year Old put in a Helping hand and You can see the Green Color chose as Her Own Rooms color. Quite frankly once You get used to the color it is actually not a bad color...Yes a Bit of Linds Spirit too...A Young Lady Springing as Spring has finally come into a Fine Young Lady who is finally losing some of Her Stubbornness but not Her Individuality...Though is Fun to Jokingly Speed up the Slide show and see Her really working Hard. Yeah Linds, Hats off and High 5's for a Job well done...Now Only if You can Learn to Pick Up after Yourself...We can truly give You the Praise You Deserve...Yeah quite a Few People would love to have Your Room so Hey Keep it Clean!
Update to Linds Wishes...Great Hopes for Peace
Now Embroiled in Legal Issues...Wishes Continues
The Intent of JerSooz Ezine is to Show the Positive...Though Sometimes Truth Hurts
If You have Followed the JerSooz Ezine or the things We have been doing in Life You will Find its always been Our Hopes Yes Our Dreams to not only portray but also live a life that is a True Love Story...Yes even show You We can be Trusted as well as show We Ourselves are only Human too
Sometimes We Can't See the Forest through the Trees or the Big Picture...We are Blinded
Sadly though Others are not also of Our Own Mind Set...That see Life has its Trials and Tribulations even its Own Self Discovery call it a Mid Life Crisis that Last Year in 2005 Sooz and Linds had set out on as what was to be a New Beginning even Call it a Better Life to Escape the Old Neighborhood. We lived in this being Sacramento the North Highlands Area. Yes, a Big House in a Neighborhood with what Some if Blindly Following Others Assumptions of it a Bad School District. Some even Jokingly Referred to it as the Hood, the NH...though the Area is far from the Ghetto or even Tenement Housing that Breeds Violence Hate and Contempt or Destructive Minds of Kids faced with No Hope but to Survive and Get Out of their Existence such as those of Other Large Cities. The NH the Hood Linds thought would be Cool to Act out was Not even a Rough Place when Truly Viewed it in perspective.
This was the Place that Linds in Her Trying to be an Independent Child fell into what could be...Yes Described as Having the Wrong Friends and Yes at that Time the Wrong Attitude...Like the Rap The Heavy Metal Heavy Metallic Bands...Yes the Goth..Yes as the Punk Movement...MTV VH1 Music...Video...TV and Current Movies...Yes Jerry Springer...Maury Povich...Cops...even America's Most Wanted...Portraits that Depict to Our Youth Today and Yes sometimes Our Kids try to Mimmick...You had to Act Hard...Act Gangsta...Try to Wear The Black Makeup...Do the Body Piercings...You had to Be a Bad Girl to Fit in with an Attitude to Match though to Linds She was Not to Herself in Her Mind like Her Friends...Though the Meanness it Breeds She also did Not See and Sometimes even Today doesn't...She saw Herself only as the Peers She chose...Just another Teenager and what could Go Wrong...did cause issues even with Jers advice and trying to Help her Succeed Yes Read Whoops Jer Again. Lets just say as Jer always explained to Linds and Sooz why work 5 times harder then just Living Life by Simple Rules. Better Yet why Not Lose the Attitude...Lose the Makeup...Just Try to Fit in without Drawing Attention to Yourself? These Words went Unheeded thereby causing what was ultimately to become a Rough Lesson in Life for Her 2 Best Friends Left behind. Linds was Taken out of there to go and Yes Folks given a New Life, a New Beginning.
Yes the Our New Beginning a Job Transfer to Bakersfield the Giving up of the House Jer Himself Lived in and was Proud of for over 10 Years...Who Himself saw as Giving Others less Fortunate a House to be Viewed as if Work Hard You too can Live the Dream...He Himself did not see the Neighborhood for more then Truly what was...Real People Living Real Lives...The True Core of America the True People that are the Salt of the Earth...Yes Americans of All Walks of Life!...Not to be Looked Down on...Shown Only that if We Live in Harmony No Harm will Truly Come to Us
You Must have Your Eyes Wide Open before See the Beauty of Life
Not Truly understanding this Concept Fully...Ultimately it was Sooz and Linds Own Self Discovery They both Learned what a True Home is...with Jer they truly wanted to be...a Big Self Discovery We sometimes have to Go on to truly understand Life...Lifes True Mystery Does if Not asking the Right Questions...Does Truly put You into a Quandary of Wrong Decisions and sometimes a Self Discovery of Who Truly Loves or even Envies You or even sometimes Reveals who might Despise You...or Lets Say Blames You for what they Deem Destroyed their Life or Feel in some case even Used them
Sadly Facts that have been Revealed in this Past Year...Some People have other Agendas and See Other Facts that when if Stood Back and Looked They'd see People were Working with Them instead of against them. Yes Their Own Blindness Blinds them to the Fact...It is Their Own Self Motives are Truly what is Holding Them back from Achieving in Life that is what is Truly theirs...This of course if they Truly Apply Themselves and Believe it can Happen...though also Accept Life does not always Go Your Way...Your Own Actions when Truly Viewed by Others...They can see Right through Your Own Selfish Motives by the Words and Actions You take
The Truth if Truly Known Ultimately Reveals Itself...Life is a Game of Patience
Taking the Gamble...Are You Up to the Challenge...Be True to Who You are
What a Statement that is...Taking the Gamble...Lets say the Next Following Statements...You May or May Not Agree to...Though these Our True LifeTime Friends and True Family Members do know about Jer and Sooz and Yes Folks Linds who this is Truly about and why this is being written
Yeah the True Meaning of even the JerSooz Ezine what is Truly about...That is Showing You how to Become both a Success both in Life and Business...More importantly staying True to Not Only Your Core Values but also Moral Values...That is Stay True to Your True Inner Feelings and Stand Strong even in the Most in Your Face... False Accusations and Falsehoods that May be Thrown at You...Yeah the Good Old Stand Tall Stand Proud and Ultimately with Gods Help and Belief in Yourself the True Truths Will be Revealed
Our Legal Issues...Not Asked for...That is Not Our Intent...Linds Wishes is The Dream
Why You ask is this written about?...What is Your Intent...What is Your 1 Year 5 Year 10 Year Plan?...Simply stated here is what We want...That is for Linds Wishes to be Heard...as Eloquently put and a true statement to be Questioned and Answered is why is Linds still being put in the Middle of a Custody Battle when it is Not Her Wishes...His Words Linds Dads Yes to Linds..."Your in the Middle of this!"...Whereby as He Himself not Understanding it is Him Himself by His Own Not Listening has Cost Him Himself his Daughters Own Distrust of Him...Simply by His Own Actions...As the Saying Goes Walk a Mile in My Shoes before Judging Me...So Goes the Saying Once You have Lived with Someone Do You Truly Know somewhat Their Life Style...Linds has and Does Not Like what She See's...Though Her Assessment is Now Not Listened to...Plus Her Not Trying to Hurt Her Dads Feelings She Tried to Hide a Lot of Facts or said it in a Child's Way...She tried to Protect Her Dad...Yes Linds Loves Her Dad though sometimes Thinks of Him as a Peer a Child like Her in His Mind...Not as a Dad...Merely because He does not know How to Act as One...Worse Yet He still thinks of Her as a Little Girl...Yes Someone Who if Told to Will Not Reveal His Secrets or His Contempt for Authority Witnessed by Linds His Own Daughter...Yes a Child at 13 nearly 14 Years Old does know the Difference
There was No Abandonment...True Facts be Known...A Simple Explanation it's Not
There is also His Inability to See...No Sooz did not Abandon Her Daughter Linds...What was Jer and Linds True Motives Let Sooz Resolve Her issues...Yes Truly End that New Beginning Started elsewhere that Truly Revealed itself in a More Negative Way then could be Imagined...Promises Sooz felt had to Complete...These to be Learned later the True Reason Sooz having Unspoken Issues to Resolve...These Promises...Made to Fulfill Promises of Work still left Uncompleted...Help Close out and Move the Richard Beyer Foundation Artwork and Other Things...Her Getting Stranded with Her Cherokee broken down...Not Knowing as it Ultimately turned out to be a Broken Starter not a More Thought out Problem a Frozen Engine...Yes a Simple Fix not a Total Breakdown...More importantly Unsure to Ask anyone for Help
Sooz has had to Learn a Harsh Lesson...Your Friends may Truly be Not what they seem...No Matter how Hard You try Others Attitudes will Never Change...New Beginnings sometimes are Merely Falsehoods filled with False Promises...The Person going to is Not the Person You thought they were and Things may change the Moment You Get there...Most Importantly Follow Your Heart when it says...This Won't Work out!...Follow the Bell Ringing in Your Head...It Truly is the Warning Your Right in Your 1st Assessment...Follow Your Own Advice...Better Yet Listen to Others...They see Things You May Not merely by Your Actions
Whereby Originally before Leaving it was Agreed to Linds remain with Jer so could Go to School...be where She Truly wanted to be in a Home Enviroment...This Idea turned Quickly to something not even Imagined...As Previously Stated a True Nightmare with More Legal Issues and Expenditures then can even Imagine...though Yes even Sooz would Agree even Herself if Hearing the Things said would be like 99.999% of People Given the Facts as Portrayed say a Good Case to Go On Abandonment...Not Understanding the Circumstances...Her Dad Took the Ball and Ran with it...Even though Linds Herself saying was Not the Case as Jer Himself has said...Linds Loves Her Mom and wants to Live with Her Mom...Not Her Dad as She Herself has said all along
What are the True Motives...Where is the Proof Unless to Blame Others
Linds truly Feels Loved with Jer and Sooz whereas with Her Dad She Feels as a Pawn in a Chess Game a Way to Get Back at Sooz for Leaving Him in the 1st Place not the True Reason his Drug and Alcohol usage or His Still Only Calling Linds when was Convenient for Him
Not as the Saying Goes Him Moving Heaven and Earth for Linds by what We can't even Address in this Matter Due to Legal Bill Costs and The Costs probably never being Recovered...That is an Entirely Different issue so its Gravity is not Weighed in this Legal Action as to His True Character or Contempt of Authority as previously stated... His inability or Lets Call the Kettle Black His Refusal to even Pay Child Support better Yet his Wanton Deep Seated Desire to Stop what is Owed...Has Asked for Sooz to Merely File False Reports or Try Extortion Tactics to Make the District Attorney to think He's Paying Support when Not...Which Sooz has refused being it is His Obligation and Legally can't in the 1st Place wipe out this debt with a wave of the Hand this has Only Maddened and Angered Him...This Money as All Other Children of Divorce or Out of Wed Lock being Truly the Responsible Parent Responsibility to Pay...This Linds as Well as Other Kids in Similar Situations if Understand as Jer always did in the 12 1/2 Years Paying for His Own Son and Daughter Support...Should always be seen as Not only Helping in the Support of the Child but also Possibly College Education or Future Money to Help them in Life...This Responsibilty Not to be Taken Lightly for a True Parent Who Cares...Falls on Linds Dads Deafened Ears...Its I will Never Pay You a Dime Suzie...Sooz Nick Name short for Susan always said in a Look what You Owe Me Tone...Help Me get out of Paying this...I Owe You Nothing when Truly is Linds Money...Truly Her He Owes and the Money if ever seen is Truly Hers...Then How would He ever Get it if Not Paying it in 1st Place instead has Made it All about Her Mom...Not Him or His Inabilty to do what's Right for even His Own Daughter
This Responsibility Jer has even when Times away sent Money for Expenses Gas etc...Jer has since Dec 8th 2001 undertaken as well as now the Legal Bills so Linds Voice will Hopefully be Heard...Jer and Sooz Refusing to Take Money from Him Linds Dad in the 1st Place though He will Never Believe...Though Himself Begging Sooz for Money over the Summer time when 1st time had Her for more then 2 weeks...The Same Man who can't even Give Proof of His Income or even Show a Legal Residence He Himself has had in his Name for His almost Total Adult Life
The Question asked or Should be where Truly is the Proof He even Cares about His Own Daughter Safety...Can Provide a Safe Place for Her to even Visit...That will be there the Next Time even or as always as Linds has in Past Visits been Shuffled from Place to Place Nightly or even Longest Stay Weekly...Or Having Others See How Truly Linds Lives even when Visits with Him...Ashamed for Her Well being they can't step in and themselves take Her away or to Afraid to Call Authorities they stay Silent or worse Aid Him trying to Help
His Actions and His Blindness to the Facts...Now has Alienated Her...Yes Folks His Own Daughter afraid to Talk to Him for Fear He will only Tell Her to Shut Up or Better Yet Not Still Truly Hear She wants to Live with Us...Jer and Sooz as have Already to Police and Legal Officials in Court Only Not to be Heard Her True Wishes still...They View it as Maybe as stated a 50/50 Coin Toss...Neither Parent as Viewed a Good One...by Yes Merely Presented Facts Who can Possibly be the Bigger liar...Whose the Most Trust Worthy...Whose Story Can We Truly Believe then Yes even We'd Admit it as the Previous Example as to Sooz Abandonment Charge be Truly a 99.999% Toss the Coin and Let the Best Person Win...Not Truly ever taking into Account Linds Wishes to be With Her Mom No Matter How the Coin Falls
This Maddens Him and Further Adds to His Delirium and Supposed Thought of Her Dad that She Linds has No Mind at 13 Years Old and Can't Make Decisions for Herself when it is Himself that can Not Hear Her Voice to Him
Dad I Love You but I do Not Want to Live With You...No I Do Not Condone Your Life Style or Your Attitude...No I Do Not want to Live the Life of Nearly a Homeless Person and Most of All I Do Not want to be Lied to...Foremostly I am Afraid with Your Anger...Your Self Denial...You Will Fly Off in a Fit of Rage and Drive Drunk or High with Me in the Car as have in the Past Physically put Me in the Car...Then Told Me to Quit being a Baby about it as Drove Wildly over Winding Twisting Mountains in the Santa Barbara Area nearly going off the Road Countless times in a Drunken or Pot Induced Haze...Not exactly a Picture any Concerned Adult or Parent wants their Child to be Part of
Theres even the True Story of How Linds Dad even when Given the Chance to have Christmas Vacation where She was allowed to stay with Him though Sooz was Granted Her Rights by the Santa Barbara Special Intervention Squad as We have Told in Lind Wishes the Story of His Return Linds to Her Mom on Christmas...In His Anger the True Story He Himself did...Seems Nobody Legal wise except Jer and Sooz's Attorney seems to Hear...as Linds Tells it Herself Her in Her Fear of Her Dad...how Dec 23rd Linds Dad Opened a Bottle of Wine and with Linds in the Car Drove till almost to Bakersfield Mad and it was Gone and Not till then Did He Turn around...Spewing Out of His Mouth Driving Hate for Linds Mom and Jer and Others...Linds as She Feels Not with a Concern to Me or Others who have Always Tried to Work with Him...Yes Words from Linds Own Mouth...Though seems No Others Listen to Her Not even Her Own Dad or the Court Systems or Her Court Appointed Attorney who says...because didn't Truly also Listen...Said if She did say these things to Him Now or Other Things...We will have Coherced Her into saying them though thats been Linds Words all along after Her Dad has set out in His Own Self Admitted Anger...His Anger for Sooz who Left Him Originally for His Drug usuage after witnessing Him Flailing on a Bathroom Floor like a Fish in a Near OD
This Now is Still Coming around Full Circle with Alcohol and Nearly Daily Pot Smoking that when Tested Positive told the Legal System He had Given Up Both...though the Most Current Tests are a Level that should have Tested Clean or Nearly Clean 6 weeks after Original Test Nearly at time nearly 2 Months this being 2 weeks ago...Showed what We're led to Believe a Miracle it didn't go Down by Much in Level nearly the Same Reading...This after not Showing up as We have Stated 1st Visit No Drug Testing there No Phone Call even...this as viewed in Prior Ezine as a Good Faith Gesture to Follow the Court Mandated Visitation...were at both Meetings at 1/2 way Point Ready to Drop Linds off the 2nd being 2 weeks ago...Linds Dad Picked Her Up then Nearly the Whole weekend Spent it Drinking Alcohol though Court Minutes Expressly Stated Neither Custodial Parent can be under the Influence of either Alcohol or Drugs during Visitation. Sooz was Clean on Her Drug Tests and being We Don't Drink can Pass an Alcohol Test any time, proving another False Statement Linds Dad made against Sooz
Linds Dad stated to Her and just Merely this 1st time Re-established after not seeing Linds since Christmas Day...Don't Tell Anyone I have been Drinking or I can be in Deep trouble with the Lawyers and the Judge...Then Recanted had Only One Beer when Linds confronted Him with Her Own Dad You were Drinking when...He Himself Called Her Shouting that She had Set Him Up when She filmed Him with Her Video Camera...The Camera Linds Herself took even against Sooz and Jer Wishes...Sooz Own Fear He'd Confiscate it and Mysteriously Lost it being would not truly allow Linds to Talk to Her Mom and expressly stated No Calls to Jer as had Her Cell Phone Provided to Contact Him for Past 2 Plus Years so He could always contact Her...Yes Folks the Phone always Answered or Passed to Linds if Her Dad ever Called...Phone Records also showing when Calls Made to and from...so we have done our part continually and consistantly to make sure Linds Dad can contact her any time.
Our Anticipation and Hopes When Moving to Bakersfield
When we moved here we were ecstatic with the hopes and visions of having a great relationship with Lindsey's Dad. We looked forward to the ease in getting to and from Santa Barbara in comparison to Sacramento and short drive (less than 2 and a half hours) between Bakersfield and Santa Barbara. We were excited thinking Linds and her Dad would have a better chance to know each other and be able to spend more Quality Time together. We also had hopes that we could spend more time as a couple and enrich our relationship during the times Lindsey would be with her Dad.
The tables have turned because of Linds Dads stubbernness, personal vendetta against Sooz and unwillingness to listen to and adhere to the Court Requirements it is sad to say none of our Great Expectations have become a reality. The truth is it is painful and frustrating, not to mention being financially cumbersome to have to take these measures to make sure Lindsey is safe. This is our main concern.
Finally it is time for Linds Dad to deal with the issues of quitting drugs and alcohol, finally do it if not for himself then for his daughter, and make it stick. Until he does this, Linds safety is threatened every time she steps into his car to go anywhere with him.
Today Is The Day We Never Wanted To Happen
When Sooz attorney called on Tuesday of this week and told her that Linds Dad had forfeited this weeks visit by showing dirty on his drug test it opened the door to other things we must do. After reviewing the Court Minutes it became clear that his drug tests should be negative by now, so if he had actually quit using like he told the judge, then he would be able to have the visit as arranged. The court orders also state that the parent responsible for Linds is not to drink alcohol or use drugs while in their care. Linds report that her Dad "drank continually" during their last visit is enough for us to believe for her safety and to follow the court orders that visitation will be forfeited this weekend.
Linds Dad called Wednesday about the upcoming visit and we had to break the news to him that he had forfeited this weekends visit. Numerous phone calls followed with Linds Dad threatening if we didn't show up Friday he would bring the Police to our door and have Sooz arrested for contempt of court for not following the court orders. These, being threats are consdiered harassment also directly violates the present restraining and court orders. Linds Dad does not understand that he is the one who wasn't following the court orders, not us.
This is a day we truly did not want to ever happen, but if this is what it takes to finally get his attention, and begin the changes he needs to make to get his life in order and become responsible enough to deserve the visit with his daughter, then this is what it takes. If he does show up at our door as promised this evening he will be violating the restraining order, and he might be arrested. We have done our part to try to warn him but through his shouting and threats did not hear.
Can He Find Our House?
We use the Post Office box for correspondence, as a rule. As business owners it is always advised to do this not only for junk mail but as a personal right. We feel this is adequate for correspondence with Linds Dad since we are available through our cell phones at all times. But his threats to come to our door got us wondering...how easy is it to find out a persons address, where they live, online? So...we went about doing the research to find ourselves at our new house online. At first we went back and forth between the different selections of the various County and State Records websites and seemed to keep coming full circle, back to the pages we started from.
How Easy Is It to Find a Street Address?
For each City, County, and State the Public Records webpage layouts and information access is a little different. There is basically a formula, slightly different for each location in the USA to use to find what you are looking for. After finding the formula for our County, Kern County, we searched for our address, then the parcel ID and then even got a map straight to our door in 10 steps! Yes, in ten steps we found our new address with only the County name and our, the property owners last name. Of course, it takes a little practice and patience but it can be fun to look your own self up on the web.
Don't Pay For A Private Investigator do your own online investigation!

While we were researching we wondered what else we could find out about ourselves online. There are countless Public Access, Public Information websites for City, County and State department records. But if you spend a little money you can get access to tools the real private investigators use. If you want more information about virtually anything on record we found an awesome resource. It's called Records Registry and truly is an incredible research tool! You never know when you might want to know a little more about someone then they are allowing you to know.
