Part 8 Sub Pt 1
-- This Sub Part recounts that 7 week period from September 10, 1977, the day of my arrival in Vancouver, Washington with a guy named Sigliano who I met through one of my roomates in Covina -- and what was for me, the following tumultuous 7 weeks on through October 31, 1977. During this time I went to see my new born son in Beaverton and days later was served divorce papers at work which saved me the trouble, but was unnecessary all the same as I would signed the for divorce anyway, but I guess it served as just another 'low blow' from Karen and the people who did her thinking for her.
I had just quit my job at the paint store in Portland and had just returned from there looking for work when I arrived the place I lived at with Sigliano on 'Q' street and 27th on October 21st when I turned on the stereo to a local rock station and the first thing I heard was the news about the plane crash that purportedly killed 'Lynyrd Skynyrd' rock band lead singer and lyricist Ronnie Van Zant and fellow band members Steve and Cassie Gaines.
I was alarmed at this what with the play one on their songs was 'What's Your Name ?" had recieved a lot of air play on the FM rock stations in L.A. and across the U.S. in Portland therein recent weeks, one of the songs from the 'Street Survivors' album which was later released on October 17th 1977, only three days before the plane crash in a Mississippi swamp attributed to the deaths of the 'Lynyrd Skynyrd' band members on October 20th.
This was because of the lyrics in 'What's Your Name ?": "Well it's eight O'Clock in Noise Idaho" which reminded me of my then Portland Girlfriend Karen's stupid lie at our apartment in Yreka on July 24th 1975 about Pocatello being near Boise, when in actually it is clear across the state near the Wyoming border.
I remebered the incident well as this was the day before Karen's spontaneous combustion at the 'Callahan Days' music festival on July 25th and her pain, drug and alcohol induced revelations of the 'Plans For Me Up North' at the home of a friend of mine, therein some woods near Callahan, California and followed up next day by our return to the 'Callahan Days' music fest where later that night Karen and her Portland friend Kathy led me to a darkend, crowded and noisy corner there, where Greg was shoved out at me like a scene out of 'Julius Ceaser' with a dozen or more knife wounds in his back when he fell into arms which slid off his back because it was so fucking bloody. -- All this is described in Part 4 Sub Part 7 of "1979".
There was also that day in mid-October 1976, exactly one year before the when Greg came back to Portland to fuck Karen and continue on with his role in the 'Plans For Me Up North' when I broke up with Karen and sat alone in the apartment on SE 16th near Belmont, drinking wine and smoking 'weed' as I listened to 'Lynyrd Skynyrd's 'Pronounced' album along with a various other rock albums.
As news of the firey and bloody events at 'Callahan Days' in July '75 and the bizarre accidental shooting death in Yreka and revelations of the 'Plans For Me Up North' spread like wildfire, it no doubt drew some attention to my then Portland Girlfriend Karen's solo trips to Pocatello, Idaho where she and Greg reportedly with 'body doubles' posing as me there. -- There was also the bizarre April '75 death of the actress from Eugene, Oregon who was raised in Idaho and had ties there.
I got suspicious of plane crashes back Covina and L.A. back in 1971, what with the weird crash of the Western Airlines jetliner at Ontario Airport on March 31st 1971, during which time I was a trustee at Bicailuz Center in L.A. and was befriended by a Western Airlines purser and a guy I suspect was CIA or something like it, along with a gang of other law breakers and criminals who were protecting me from other gangs of law breakers and criminals. -- This was followed by the June 6th '71 mid-air 'take out' of an Air West 727 by a Marine Phantom jet over the Bradbury Hills only 8 miles from my then home in Azusa, which was copied two months later by way of the 'take out' of an ANA 727 by an F-86 fighter jet in Japan on July 30th. -- As for the bombing of the TWA jetliner parked at McCarran Field in Las Vegas on my 19th birhday March 8th 1972, it never did sit well with me as I had three hours that morning there in a Covina attorney's office haggling over my trust fund.
There was also the December 8th '72 United Airlines 737 crash in Chicago in which FBI agents and other intel types were seen swarming all over the south side neighborhood crash site, prior to the crash. -- It's passengers included former CIA station chief Dorothy Hunt, the wife of Watergate king pin E. Howard Hunt,
a black U.S. Congressman and a black reporter for CBS News. -- This was followed later that same month the crash of an Eastern L-1011 in swamp west of Miami on December 29th 1972 killing 101 passengers and crew.
The point of all this being that it's very possible if not likely that 'Skynyrd' band lyricist's Ronnie Van Zant's cryptic like references to Idaho and the name of a girl there may have construed as such by the same gang of intel agents and their bosses spotted near Midway Airport in Chicago, just prior to the crash of the United Airlines 737 there on December 8th 1972, hence the crash of the ''Skynyrd' band's Convair tour plane in a Mississippi swamp in October 1977.

Part 8 of "1979"
Part 8 has 5 Sub Parts -- and covers that 9 month long time period from September 10th 1977 through mid-June 1978, during which time I lived in Vancouver, Washington and worked in and around there visiting Portland on weekends until April '78 when I went to work in Portland until the attempted drug 'frame up' in mid-May by the FBI and the cops in Portland and Vancouver
that prompted me to flee to Northern California by mid-June 1978.These memories as viewed through the prism of my 'minds eye' as I sat sequestered in my apartment in West Slope near Portland from March 24th 1979 through March 25 1979

Part 8 Sub Pt 2
-- This Sub Part covers that four and a half month time period from November 1, 1977 -- mid-March 1978 working construction in the rain, mud, snow and ice in and around the Vancouver, Washington area and Columbia Gorge as well as the single slice life I led after work there at my upstairs place on Evergreen and Esther. -- I also spent some weekends in Portland with my ex-wife and infant son. -- I also caught glimpses of the 'Plans For Me Up North' during this time and made note some rather interesting plane crashes that took place only hours apart in February 1978.The accidental ? shooting death of former FBI No. 3 man William Sullivan on November 9th 1977, follows the pattern of the deaths of 5 other present and former
FBI agents just before they were to testify before the House Assassinations Sub Committee then investigating the FBI and CIA's various roles in both the 1963 assassination of President Kennedy and 1968 assassination of Civil Rights leader King.Days later President Carter's CIA Chief Stansfield Turner reportedly fired over 800 CIA agents in November '77 and by December '77 President Carter was laying the groundwork for what to later become the 'Camp David' peace accrord signed on March 26th 1979.
8 Sub Pt 3
-- This covers my life in Vancouver, Washington from mid-March 1978 -- May 14, 1978 and my transition from construction worker in Washington State to juice bar operator in Portland, and the appearance of some of old former co-workers in Portland from the Fall of '75, and my engineered appearance at the anti-nuclear rally in Portland on April 30th at the River Front Park where four days later many of these same anti-nukers protested President Carter's visit to Portland on May 4th and 5th. -- I was prompted to attend the April anti-nuke rally by one of my health food store co-workers and accompanied there by a police informant I just met a month before and who was apparently 'steered' to me at the Vancouver unemployment office late March '78, by one of my former co-workers from the Fall of 1975 when I worked at Celanese Pipe in North Portland.
Part 8 Sub Pt 4
-- This were things get a bit hairy during that time period from May 15, 1978 -- May 21, 1978 and the elaborately rigged, attempted 'frame up' to 'railroad' me to a Washington prison and a lenghthy parole and my cool headed standoff and manuevers that derailed this railroad to the Washington Pen.-- It's too convoluted and complicated to get into here, so you will just have to go the Sub Part and read about it.
Part 8 Sub Pt 5
-- This Sub Part recounts the aftermath of the attempted 'frame up' from May 22, 1978 -- mid-June 1978, my Memorial Day Weekend in Yreka with friends, a campground near Redding and Crescent City, during which time I arrangements to spend the summer in Yreka, California.
