No Shit Texans Worried About Economy — They Get All Their “Info” from Faux News

Based on a new Texas Lyceum poll, Texas voters are worried about the national economy.

What the poll does not indicate is the degree to which they’re jealous that the surging economy is not happening under a Republican president’s “leadership.”

Was this poll conducted at the nearest Redneck Haven or at a church? Because the national economy is humming. Under President Joe Biden, it’s been adding more than 400,000 jobs per month for — get this — 11 straight months. And when Grandpa Joe took office, more than 18 million Americans were receiving unemployment. That number is less than 1.5 million now, the lowest it’s been since 19-freaking-70.

The president also has already lowered the Donald Trump deficit by more than $350 billion, and the country is on track for the largest deficit reduction in history this year, $1.3 trillion. And while no one likes paying more at the pump or at Kroger, Biden and his

Losing Territory

Though supposedly ordained by a higher power to reign over Fort Worth, Landon and Heather Schott’s effort to build a “human trafficking shelter” is stalled for now.

B Y

S T A T I C

To open her presentation on human trafficking to the members of a Northside neighborhood association last Saturday, Heather Schott got a little personal.

“Around the age of 17, I went out and was mixing drugs and alcohol all night long,” said the senior pastor at Mercy Culture Church, a massive charismatic church on the North Side. “A dealer dropped a bag of ecstasy and drove over it. We snorted line after line for hours. I blacked out. I was driven to an abandoned apartment.”

Schott was there to sell members of the Oakhurst Neighborhood Association on a “human trafficking shelter” that Mercy wants to build in the tony neighborhood. Back to her intro, she claims she was saved by God. “I was supernaturally delivered by God after being dead for three days,” she said, referring to a prolonged blackout following her drug binge.

The meeting, according to the neighborhood association’s website, was intended to let Heather and husband Landon Schott, also a pastor at Mercy Culture Church, make a final pitch for a rehabilitation complex on Oakhurst Scenic Drive.

The fact that the Schotts were publicly disclosing and even promoting the address of the promised facility raised concerns among several area residents, who later reached out to our news magazine to express shock at plans that appear aimed at exploiting victims of human trafficking for financial gain. Nonprofits like SafeHaven of Tarrant County that similarly serve victims of abuse never disclose their shelter addresses because

I stopped reading the Times’ front section — and pretty much every other msm outlet other than maybe The Atlantic and The New Yorker — after all the “bUt Her eMaiLs!” bullshit in 2016 that will go down as having changed the course of American history for the worse. And all for stupid, ridiculous clicks.

And to entice knuckle-dragging readers — now that the Times et al. have alienated the average progressive subscriber, they’re leaning hard to the right to stay in the black. The StarT is doing the same thing. It’s not quite as big a stretch, since we live in ruby-red Fort Worth, but it’s worth noting next time you come up against a paywall when you just want to read Mac Engel’s latest take on Wrestlemania or whatever.

The Lyceum poll sought to understand voters’ outlook into the next decade. Most of them are upset with the country’s current trajectory — and I highly doubt it’s because the Orange Stain is not in cuffs yet and behind bars like he should be, which upsets me to no end — and most think their precious children will be worse off. As P.O.’ed as Texas voters are with our country, the Texas Tribune says they’re just peachy with how the state is doing, and if a place where outlawing abortions, banning books, and denying science passes as A-OK, you know the pollsters were just stopping random truckers at the nearest Buc-ee’s, because not all of Texas is nearly as backward.

doing so would place the victims’ lives in peril.

The Schotts remain the subject of weekly coverage by our news magazine due to some questionable public behavior on their part. Though the main reason churches are tax-exempt is because they’re supposed to remain apolitical, Landon regularly tells his congregation who to vote for, including county commissioner candidate Tim O’Hare, who has called Hispanics “less than desirable people,” falsely equated peaceful Black protestors with riots, and single-handedly turned his home of Southlake into a bastion of entitled white supremacism. Nope, nothing totally gross and wicked about him at all.

There’s more. One of Mercy’s “worship leaders” was involved in creating a political action committee that spread unsubstantiated bullshit about former Fort Worth Mayor Betsy Price during her recent unsuccessful campaign against O’Hare (“Blessed Are the Bigoted?” Feb. 16).

Mercy Culture is part of a broader Christian nationalist movement that seeks to redefine the United States as a solely Christian nation that adheres to fundamentalist views of the Bible which center on misogyny, homophobia, and worship of that oldest of idols — money.

Mercy Culture’s largest project is this new, proposed facility dubbed the Justice Residences which aims to help human trafficking victims recover from their plight and attain gainful employment. Heather, who founded the venture, has stated publicly for two years that there are 30 million victims of human trafficking in the United States every year even as government figures put that number closer to 200,000.

Insane right-wingers like Heather have an interest in inflating human trafficking figures.

The underlying conspiracy theory that drives QAnon followers is the falsehood that Joe Biden and Democrat leaders are running a clandestine child sex-trafficking ring.

The theory isn’t without irony, given that the last president — who is openly worshiped by evan-

gelicals — has been credibly accused of raping or sexually assaulting dozens of women. During the December trial of Ghislaine Maxwell, the woman who groomed underage girls for sexual encounters with billionaire Jeffrey Epstein and his friends, one woman testified that Maxwell introduced her to Trump at the age of 14. The testifying woman did not disclose whether she performed sexual acts on Trump, but the former president was known to have been a friend of Epstein and a regular visitor to Epstein’s New York City mansion that was used to coerce girls into having sex with wealthy New York businessmen.

According to a recent post on Nextdoor, the neighborhood association’s president, Chanin Scanlon, said 170 members voted against Mercy Culture’s proposed rehab center while six voted for it. Nonmember residents also voted overwhelmingly against the project.

As news of the no-vote spread, Landon lost his goddamn mind.

“If anyone resists helping the most abused victims in our community, it’s only because they are EVIL!” he wrote on Instagram. “They hate that we challenge their wicked agenda so they resist and attack us. This is a handful of wicked activists that HATE our biblical stance on marriage.”

One area resident said she doesn’t care if Landon thinks she or anyone else who lives in the Northside community near Mercy Culture’s main church is evil. Through a private Instagram message, she said trafficking victims should be directed to available resources in Fort Worth that align with the number of actual human trafficking cases.

We are concealing her name to protect her privacy.

Heather’s personal story, she continued, did nothing to allay the concerns of the Oakhurst community.

The proposed 13-acre project that may one day house up to 100 women and children requires a change in zoning due to the height of the proposed building and the project’s transitional housing designation. Fort Worth’s zoning commission staff recommends denying Mercy’s rezoning request.

“The proposed transitional home ... is not compatible with surrounding single-family and school-related land uses,” the staff report reads.

“The proposed use would also” result in parking continuing to overflow into the neighborhood.

The zoning commission will hear the case on Wednesday, April 13, at Fort Worth City Hall. A city spokesperson did not provide a date for a city council vote, but if a vote does come before city council, councilmembers typically follow zoning staff recommendations.

As Oakhurst residents and the zoning commission move closer to denying the Schotts’ ambitions, Landon remains defiant. In response to one area resident who said the Oakhurst community apparently doesn’t trust Mercy Culture Church, Schott downplayed the growing opposition.

“This is a small group of activists that hate God,” Landon responded. “Simple as that.”

Heather appears equally untethered to reality. In response to another Oakhurst resident who expressed his concerns about disclosing the public location of human trafficking victims so publicly, Heather shot back.

“Obviously, you missed the meeting,” she said. “Your opinion is actually the opposite of the facts of a restoration home like this.”

Oakhurst’s neighborhood did get the memo.

Past parking lot exploits apparently didn’t enamor Fort Worthians who know a poorly devised scam when they see one. As the only staffer listed on the project’s website, Heather stands to earn a substantial income from the Justice Residences. Coverage by our news magazine and the Schotts’ unprovoked attacks on an entire community likely mean that no Fort Worth neighborhood will be willing to accept the Justice Residences anytime soon.

Trump Bump, back when readership increased 66% just by mentioning that scumbag’s name or dissecting every one of his idiotic, barely coherent tweets? The Times pines for all that traffic, for sure, and they’re not the only msm outlet wishin’ and hopin’ for Dear Leader’s return to relevance. (How’d that Truth Social thing work out? Probably just as awesome as Trump University, Trump Airlines, Trump: The Game, Trump Taj Mahal, Trump Style, Trump Mortgage, Trump Steaks, GoTrump.com, Trump Tower Tampa, Trump Vodka … you get the point.)

There’s a reason we all slow down to rubberneck, and for once-respectable journalism institutions to pimp a diseased old fucktard and his maniacal, racist, opportunist, populist beliefs in deference to righteousness for a quick buck — or an even quicker click — shows just how far we’ve fallen as a nation. I say, bring on the Christian caliphate the Republicans want, where you can go to jail for getting your girlfriend pregnant, where students are forced to read the Bible, and where interracial marriage is verboten. It’s about time we got rid of the delusional, evil right wing once and for all.

We normal, sane, equality-minded people will take the East and West coasts, and all the gunloving, Bible-thumping wackos can have the Midwest and the South. Something to keep in mind: High-tax blue states subsidize low-tax red states — “in a big way,” the AP says. Gilead would shrivel up in a month.

APRIL 6-12, 2022

As the mainstream media and Star-T court right-wingers, Beto swells to a tie.

$2,000 checks are not to blame, contrary to all the warped right-wing talking points — inflation is wracking the globe. Instead of getting all huffy and puffy about federal monies that helped millions of families stay afloat postlockdown, how about directing some of that macho angst at the GOP’s $2 trillion in billionaire tax cuts and $9.1 trillion in defense spending?

Now, here’s your gentle reminder that the GOP has successfully kept the minimum wage at $7.25 instead of $15, insulin at $1,200 instead of $35, and paid leave at zero weeks instead of 12. The party of family values drives a hard bargain for actual families.

In defense of the polled Texans, seemingly no one who doesn’t have to read/watch the news for a living knows how great the economy is doing. Every single mainstream media outlet is downplaying Grandpa Joe’s success for one reason and one reason only: clicks. From The New York Times to the Washington Post and from CNN to Faux News, CBS, ABC, NBC, NPR, and every shop in between, the editors and producers know that nothing sells like a carnival sideshow, that good news doesn’t move the needle, and a deplorable sideshow is exactly what the anti-Biden Republican party has become, a spineless, petty, gigantic talking dildo that wants to tell you who you can love, who’s allowed to vote, what books you can read, and how much it’s all going to cost you.

You don’t think the Times misses its

The fact that the polled voters are not as worried about the Texas economy as much as the nation’s can be read as “the beginning of a political blame game that seats current problems in Washington rather than in Austin,” the Texas Tribune says, “and [is] harder on the Democratic government there than on the Republican government in Texas.”

The size of polled Texans who said the economy is worse off than it was a year ago was two-thirds, and only half as many said the state economy was suffering.

“The glaring disconnect between reality and how the press depicts White House accomplishments means a key question lingers: Why is the press rooting against Biden?” asks media watchdog Eric Boehlert. “Is the press committed to keeping Biden down so a Trump rematch will be close and ‘entertaining’ for the press?”

Gosh. No doubt. Generating clicks is so much more important than preserving democracy, because we all know that on one side we have truth, justice, and equality, and on the other, we have “God,” guns, and a lust for a caliphate ruled for all eternity by the shameless, embarrassing, grifting Trump family. *checks passport, looks for jobs and housing in New Zealand* Since the do-nothing Dems will never get their heads out of their asses long enough to take any real action, let’s just skip to the part where Biden loses to Trump in 2024 because most red states have already rigged the electoral apparatus and, once again, because the do-nothing Dems just let it happen. (Thanks, Grandpa Joe, for keeping your party in line.

Your demise will be your fault, too.) Enjoy stabbing and shooting one another on your

Star-T Spins COVID to Suit Right-Wing Shittery

Honestly, no one I know outside of journalism reads the Star-T for anything other than sports, sometimes cops and courts, and the occasional COVID story. That’s it. However, I don’t live in Westover Hills or Southlake, where they’re probably cheering the paper’s rightward lurch.

I sure as hell can’t stand it.

In this war for the soul of the nation — with one side espousing democracy and the other wanting to turn us into The Handmaid’s Tale — it’s a major publication’s duty to side with truth, justice, and equality, not whine about middling shit based mostly on a magic book from 70 A.D. I’m not saying I’m closed minded. I believe some of my opinions could be considered “conservative” by many of my progressive brothers and sisters. We can all debate many subjects. Contrary viewpoints are always welcome. Where we’ll differ is on major news organs wildly laying on the spin to satisfy their biases.

On the Star-T’s opinion page the other day, one of its newfangled “conservative” columnists contorted into mind-boggling shapes to argue on behalf of schools staying open — when no one, including President Joe Biden, has said or even suggested that they should be closed. That’s one dastardly little rhetorical trick common among right-wing bloviators: dragging out the ol’ strawman to pummel him to death. Watch out for them in the Star-T’s “op-spin-ion” pages as the midterms draw closer.

The writer also spins the numbers, claiming, “The data overwhelmingly shows that

for the past two years, people younger than 18 rarely get serious cases of COVID, let alone die from it.”

An important little tidbit to add is that, while maybe the data “overwhelmingly” point to rare serious pediatric cases over the past two years, the past half-year is something else.

In the United States since the start of 2022, 179 children have died from COVID-19, when the virus claimed 735 young lives the entire previous 20 months, based on data from the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP).

“It’s no longer fair even to insinuate that COVID doesn’t affect children, that COVID deaths are only in unhealthy children or kids with risk factors,” Jason Kane from the University of Chicago Comer children’s hospital told The Guardian. “That’s just not true, by the data.”

The AAP’s numbers are similar to the ones from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), meaning they’re doubly verifiable and no honest journalist would spin them.

The Star-T doesn’t care. The Star-T’s all about your freedumb and not living in fear, bro! — as you can imagine, that word appears twice in the column vis a vis the lockdown.

The most extensive report on the subject, from the University of Michigan, “overwhelmingly shows” that locking down saved nearly 3 million lives. “But so many people lost their jobs!” the freedumb caucus cries. I’d rather be alive and unemployed than employed and dead.

In summary, don’t give into the fear … of dying from an incredibly contagious virus that has killed 6.15 million worldwide and 981,000 in the U.S. Just sit back, live your miserable life, and let natural immunity take hold. Or

let COVID take hold of your lungs and end your ass. All because the guy standing in front of you in the checkout aisle or the people sitting next to you at the restaurant are so brave and righteous they can’t place a lousy piece of fabric over their dumb faces. The mask is not to keep you from getting sick. It’s to keep you from unwittingly spreading the virus. Last month, the CDC said mandating facemasks in schools during the Delta wave helped reduce COVID cases by 24%.

Spin that, Star-T.

Place Your Beto

Finally, some good news. Democratic gubernatorial candidate Beto O’Rourke is essentially tied with Gov. Greg Abbott, based on a new statewide poll. Beto is behind the greedy crony lover by only 2%, well within the margin of error. Getting this close has been months in the making, as Beto has worked his ass off to go from being down by 15% in December to only 10% in early February and 7% in late February.

The El Pasoan’s campaign is crediting the man’s unifying approach, focusing on issues that really matter to Texans, like expanding Medicaid, fixing the energy grid for good, and legalizing Mary Jane, rather than whining about which children can and can’t play sports and what books can or can’t be on school library shelves.

Funny, but for a party like the GOP that claims to be all about freedom, their politicians sure do love micromanaging our lives.

ifteen minutes and a call to a shadowy offshore agency are all it would take for him to know everything about me, the retired U.S. Army Master Sgt. on the other end of the phone line told me.

I supposedly have a dossier tucked away there that’s filled with information about my beliefs, education, and even things I’ve written. Jess Johnson, the military veteran, was not making a threat so much as putting a shot in the air warning about the potential consequences of asking questions about directed energy weapons, organized stalking programs, mind-reading technology, and other ingredients of the strange and disturbing world of people who call themselves targeted individuals.

“I make a phone call with your name and Fort Worth,” he said of the agency supposedly located in the Caribbean, “then they’re going to come back to me and say this is who she is and this is what she does.

I can get it now. I can do that and know all about you — things you don’t want me to know about — in 15 minutes.”

Johnson was explaining how easy it is for people to stalk or harass others by finding out where they live, digging up dirt on them, and using the information to discredit someone. If that doesn’t work, they can make something up and whisper it in the ears of people who are close to whatever it is you’re trying to accomplish in life.

In case you’ve never heard the term, targeted individuals are people who believe they’re victims of severe, often covert harassment. Foreign and domestic government entities, law enforcement agencies, and citizen crime watch networks are all believed to be involved, depending on which victims you ask.

Aside from stalking and harassment, some people in the targeted individual community complain of disturbing physical symptoms. They believe the cause is technology that can project voices into their head or microwave weapons that can cause symptoms ranging from mysterious to disabling.

Our conversation about targeted

Someone who is careful would not approach the topic of targeted individuals once, let alone twice. When the Weekly published the first story about targeted individuals in 2021, we heard from people across the country and around the globe who claimed they have had similar experiences. Sometimes, their claims are dismissed as embellishments or a sign of mental illness.

Yet arrests this past week by the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) show that organized stalking is very possible. Federal

law enforcement agencies arrested five people affiliated with a secret police agency for the People’s Republic of China. The agents, acting on behalf of the authoritarian regime, reportedly stalked, harassed, and spied on Chinese nationals in the United States who were viewed as dissidents.

Agents of the Ministry of State Security (MSS) for China were asked to create harassment campaigns that involved smear tactics and spying. In one of the cases, there was talk of physically harming a Democratic congressional candidate from New York so he could not run for nor get elected to office.

GPS devices and spy cameras were among the devices the Chinese agents used to keep close tabs on their targets. More clandestine agents are believed to be running interference and harassment campaigns in the United States, according to the FBI. In a video about the arrests, the FBI asked private investigators and law enforcement agencies to contact the FBI if they are asked by a foreign entity to investigate U.S. citizens.

At least one targeted-individual advocate saw the announcement as a possible breakthrough.

“The arrests are simply the beginning of something much larger on the horizon,” said Richard Moore of Tupelo, Mississippi, a targeted-individuals advocate and victim I spoke with for the first story on this topic. “The federal government has now established that this kind of behavior is wrong,” Moore said of the arrests.

“They can’t say it’s wrong for the Chinese government to do this, but it’s not wrong for someone else.”

Moore, who spent 10 years in prison, maintains he was set up and wrongly convicted. Since his release from prison in 2013, the harassment has been nonstop, he said. Moore said he has been the victim of community policing, stalking, street theater, and electronic harassment.

People in law enforcement, attorneys, and those in the medical professions who have aligned themselves with organized stalking should consider themselves put on notice, Moore said.

Much of the problem lies with modernday community policing, according to Moore. Although the concept of monitoring a “suspicious” neighbor or someone lurking in the bushes sounds good on paper, it has lent itself to mini fiefdoms that inflict serial abuse, he said.

The programs flourish because nationwide, millions of dollars in federal funding flows into them, Moore said. In other words, there are incentives to keep them going.

That makes it easy for “local elites” to leverage vendettas against people they perceive as enemies or undesirables in the community, Moore said. Added to that are state threat fusion centers that, according to their websites, are owned by state employees and private entities and therefore have little

— have the ability to cause severe disabilities, Johnson said.

“It could permanently destroy your ability to focus,” he said. “You can’t focus any longer. Maybe permanent vertigo. Just giving you a couple of things it can do. This is a permanent disability.”

Military personnel and governments are privy to the higher-end weapons, but lighter versions can be purchased from China by someone who knows the right people and has anywhere from $600 to $2,800, he said.

At least one U.S. company, Amazing1. com, sells electronic and microwave devices under the premise of equipment for research or science projects. In the hands of the wrong person, though, some of the items could just as easily be used to inflict serious damage.

A magnetic pulse device on the website is billed as a product to get rid of “bothersome animals and insects.”

The product description also states that “increased energy fields have long been used to confuse humans.”

Some of Amazing1’s products require the buyer to sign a dangerous-equipment affidavit. One of the items is a burning-laser, continuous beam ray gun that is billed as being able to “start fires over a considerable distance,” according to its description.

Another product the website sells is instructions for using a microwave oven to construct “a powerful source of directional microwaves.”

Before our conversation was over, Johnson had me wondering if men wearing black suits, black sunglasses, and earpieces were going to show up at my door. It’s easy to find out where someone lives, then drive over and say, “Why are you asking me these questions? Why are you writing these stories?” Johnson said.

“I’m just a writer,” I told him. “This is an interesting topic.”

“I already know what you’re about,” Johnson said. “All I’m saying is you’re out there and you’re trying to be honest, but most people don’t believe that’s the way, Teri. They do not believe that. … Be careful in inviting this on yourself.”

Careful? The train left that station a very long time ago, and there are no return tickets, I thought, but I didn’t say it.

For many targeted individuals, hearing theme songs and threatening messages in their heads is part of a shady, underground military campaign.

individuals was not the first time Johnson and I have discussed a disturbing topic. I talked to him 10 years earlier about something else that was just as strange. He wanted to know why I was reaching out again, especially now.

So, I told him. He’s local and has firsthand knowledge of directed energy weapons used for “voice to skull,” or V2K, communication and other methods of warfare.

Johnson, who lives in Dallas, served for 25 years with the U.S. Army special forces at Fort Bragg. While in the Army, he was also a military operations, weapons, and intelligence specialist in the Middle East, Far East, Northeast Africa, and Russia. He is currently a principal with Global Venture Partners and serves as a consultant on military, geopolitical, cultural, and economic matters.

On the topic of directed energy weapons, I asked him to confirm if the technology exists.

“It is real,” he said. “If you look at the military and state department personnel who were damaged in Cuba, what do you think they were using?”

About 200 U.S. diplomats, intelligence officers, military officers, and other government personnel have experienced symptoms related to what is called the Havana Syndrome, which began in Cuba in 2016 and has cropped up in other areas of the world. The victims have complained of a host of neurological symptoms such as dizziness and an inability to concentrate.

Some believe it’s hysteria, while others say it’s evidence of electronic attacks, according to the Wall Street Journal.

As science fiction as all of this might sound, this type of technology is hardly new.

“When we went into Iran the first time, against Saddam Hussein, there was a voice that went into the jaw of Iraqi soldiers, who said his name is Muhammad,” Johnson said. “The voice said, ‘You’re outnumbered, outgunned, and you will die in this bunker unless you give yourself up and go home to your family.’ ” The Iraqi soldiers believed they had heard a divine command and “came out of their bunkers, and they were kissing the boots of American soldiers,” Johnson said.

A YouTube video shows the soldiers as they surrendered.

“Wasn’t that you in one of those videos?” I asked.

“Ah, no,” Johnson said.

“It wasn’t? Oh, OK. My bad.”

“No, it’s not your bad,” Johnson said.

“All I’m going to say is I saw this technology under development at a facility at Penn State, the advanced research laboratory there, and it was being used well before that war.”

Some of the most advanced directed energy weapons — like those aimed at diplomats and U.S. intelligence employees

oversight.

Claims of organized stalking are sometimes dismissed by others as being part of a mental illness or paranoia. For too long, targeted individuals’ complaints have been dismissed and the victims marginalized and written off as nut jobs, Moore said.

During my conversation with Johnson, the retired U.S. Army Master Sgt., I said that even I have noticed what seems to be more people taking liberties to film others in public or simply lurk around in stores and other places where they hang back and watch everyone.

“Do you know what I’m talking about?”

I asked him.

“I do,” Johnson said.

The people involved may be those hired by private entities, corporations, or rogue government groups to go out and harass others, he said.

From a geopolitical and historical perspective, the concept is conceivable, Johnson said. He pointed to the Stasi in Nazi Germany, which was able to enlist an estimated 30% of the population to spy on their neighbors, friends, colleagues, and even family members and get them sent off to prison camps. As many as 2 million people acted as informants for the oppressive regime.

“Are there people in the U.S. who would

be willing to do this?” I asked Johnson.

“Probably more people than you know,” he said.

One of the people the Weekly heard from after our first story was Jill Hampton of Fort Worth.

Hampton told me has endured harassment from voice-to-skull technology, directed energy weapons, and some organized physical stalking since June 2018.

Through dozens of videos and journal entries she shared with me, Hampton chronicled what she described as relentless attacks against her in Riverbank, California, a town of about 23,000 people near Modesto.

Hampton and her husband moved from California to Fort Worth in August 2020 — partly to get away from the harassment — but it followed them to Texas, she said.

In California, Hampton lived next to a couple who were quiet and unassuming until their grown son moved back in with them, she told me.

“Then all hell broke loose,” Hampton said.

The son, the alleged ringleader of the group, according to Hampton, previously owned a business that is now defunct — I verified his identity and additional information through social media accounts and other venues. Since he has not been iStock

Feature

charged with a crime, the Weekly is unable to use his real name. I’ll call him “John.”

No direct confrontation ever occurred prior to the harassment so there is no obvious reason why John, his family members, and their friends would launch a relentless attack against Hampton, who believes it’s because the family is betatesting technology that can be used to harass and maim people.

Over the past few years, she has documented her ordeal through dozens of videos and journal entries. In June 2018, Hampton began hearing voices, she said.

Over time, the voices began calling each other by name, and she identified them as her neighbors.

“I realized they could see what I was seeing,” Hampton alleges. “I went to my mother’s house, and they were describing my mother’s yard. I could hear them.”

The voices have kept similar narratives going on since then, said Hampton, who also reported feeling hits from energy shocks and other physical symptoms. The voices repeatedly say things like “Does she know?” or “Can she hear you?” Other times, they have asked each other if she is convulsing, shaking, or having a seizure.

In one of her journal entries, Hampton wrote that she heard John allegedly

telling his dad, “She’s convulsing.” The electromagnetic pulses she continues to feel have caused her to have seizures, a problem she never had prior to the group’s alleged attacks, Hampton said.

Over the course of the harassment, Hampton has experienced being awakened by an “extremely loud, high pitch sound” at night or “a whoosh of air” followed by head pain that has jolted her awake from a deep sleep. Other times she has felt dizzy and off-balance, she said. Through videos and journal entries, Hampton has documented what she says are electronic devices that are being used against her. One of her videos shows what appears to be a row of blinking computer servers or routers lined up outside, along the back side of John’s house.

A photograph shows a computer server sitting inside a window that has a large circle mark that Hampton believes was caused by a directed energy source. In December 2018, Hampton wrote that she notified police after noticing similar circular marks on her windows. The neighbor allegedly “targeted my windows with a device about 30 times,” she wrote in her journal.

On other occasions, the neighbors allegedly aimed a device that shot blue or red laser lights into her eyes while she was outside and pointed bright spotlights into her windows, Hampton told me.

At one point, she believes she noticed the same black Dodge Charger appearing continued on page 11

Halfway across the country, in Big Lake, Minnesota, a town of about 11,000, Scott Blokzyl has a story so similar to Hampton’s that it’s uncanny. Both Blokzyl and Hampton told me they do not know each other, nor have they heard of each other’s experiences.

Blokzyl’s electronic harassment began in the spring of 2011, when he noticed “strange things happening” in an apartment complex where he previously lived in New Ulm, Minnesota, he told me. “I would hear electrical humming noises which would get louder around radiating noise sources such as a fan or an air conditioner,” he told me.

“This was continuous and grew in volume until August of 2011.”

Eventually, he said, he began hearing his downstairs neighbor’s ham radio transmissions coming through his electronic devices. The voices were faint at first but became clearer eventually. Soon he could hear them reading back his thoughts and repeating what he said, Blokzyl said.

People speaking through the transmissions allegedly asked him why he was in New Ulm and if he knew what they were doing, Blokzyl said.

“None of this made any sense to me as I had no previous knowledge of what they were doing or how,” he said.

They also demanded to know if he was trying to get in contact with a female he used to know and if he was there to “mess with people” who were part of the radio network.

“After two nights of them continuously hammering me with their radio transmissions nonstop, I finally phoned [the female acquaintance] and demanded to know what was going on,” he said.

People who spoke over the transmissions eventually identified themselves by name, continued on page 12

in the parking lot when she visited various stores. Inside the store, people — one of them looked like John — followed her around and monitored her, she said.

Hampton thought that they were probably trying to make money from what they’re doing.

“I thought to myself that they were trying to make money off of using this technology on me, and [John] responded to my thought with ‘We already are,’ ” said Hampton, who believes that he was “probably paid more money to be able to show everybody he can do it out of state” after she moved to Texas, Hampton said.

She told me she believes the group’s attacks are directly responsible for the serious health problems she has developed.

She does not believe any government or private entity is initiating the attacks.

Doctors recently found that Hampton has an aneurism, and she is having chest pains, as well. At times, she is having difficulty talking or forming thoughts.

When symptoms come up, the group begins talking about that, she said.

I asked Hampton how she could endure everything she described, and she said it’s because of her supportive family and her faith in God. Being an ex-U.S. Marine has also helped, Hampton said. Her military training covered how to deal with being taken hostage if you’re subject to torture as a prisoner of war.

In recent weeks, as her health problems have escalated, Hampton said she has heard the voices saying they are going to kill her.

“They’ve had conversations about killing me,” she said.

To try to raise awareness and help others, she has written letters to members of Congress and has filed complaints with the FBI, the FCC (Federal Communications Commission), and law enforcement agencies.

“I wish they would arrest these people,” Hampton said. “I don’t know why they are taking so long. The longer it goes on, the more my health is deteriorating.”

She remains confident her alleged attackers “will be brought to justice.”

Hampton is not the only one to allege problems with John and his family. A former neighbor of Hampton’s in Riverbank claims she has been harassed by the same people. A group of them “sits in the driveway yelling and flipping us off,” Linda Anderson told me in a phone interview. Whenever she and her husband are outside, the group constantly snaps photos of them and films them with their cell phones, she said.

The alleged attackers have also used their vehicles to block her car so could not leave for work, she said.

On one occasion, the perpetrators crossed into Anderson’s yard and sprayed weed killer, she said. That, combined with the ongoing harassment, led to a yelling match between her husband and the

APRIL 6-12, 2022

continued from page 10

perpetrators, Anderson said.

One day she arrived home with her daughter to find police taking away her husband in handcuffs. Officers refused to tell Anderson what her husband was charged with and asked if she and her daughter would also like to be arrested when she demanded an answer, according to her account of what happened.

“No charges were ever filed, and no reason was given for why he was in jail,” Anderson told me.

Numerous complaints she and her husband have filed with police about the group’s harassment have gone unanswered, Anderson said. Law enforcement has not tried to protect them, and the harassment has continued.

“It makes it sound like they know the police,” she said.

The harassment has escalated to a point where, just like the Hamptons, Anderson and her husband have decided to leave Riverbank, she said.

They are in the process of deciding where to move, Anderson told me.

Blokzyl said. Previously, they referred to themselves as simply “the network.”

Their voices soon took on a threatening tone, and people behind the transmissions allegedly told Blokzyl to get out of New Ulm, he said. They promised to drive him crazy and make him commit suicide if he didn’t.

His tormentors also allegedly threatened to make him broke and homeless, and they ordered him to throw away his electronics.

Next came instructions for him to harm people. When he refused, the group went into “the biggest temper-tantrum rant I have ever heard,” he said. “They began chanting various nonsense like ‘It’s called primal circuit entry, and it feels pretty good’ over and over. … That’s the clue they give you as to how something works.”

He believes it’s done through a radio transmission that falls into the “very low range of human hearing,” Blockzyl said.

“They juice you enough until your body becomes attuned to the signal, and you start hearing it. Once you hear it, they are hearing your thoughts.”

At that point, your brainwave is now also in tune with the other people in the network, he said.

“The real interesting part is a guy came on network and said for him to call me the next day,” Blokzyl said. “He gave me a phone number, and I didn’t even check it. When I called, he knew who I was.”

Members of the alleged network have been arrested on or have served time for various pedophile-related charges, based on documentation that Blokzyl presented to me.

They are also heavily into occult practices, according to many of the members’ social media posts.

One Facebook post from an alleged network member shows a photo of a Baphomet (Satan represented as a goat) with the caption, “You’re the reason some jerk is going to die angry today.” Blokzyl’s alleged harassers responded to the content with comments such as “Hail, Satan!” In another Facebook post, an alleged network member pays homage to the “hatred” in Lucifer’s eyes.

I asked him if he believes the group’s spiritual beliefs have anything to do with the harassment. He said he does not believe that’s the key factor.

“Their criminal backgrounds are the indication that they’re doing this,” Blokzyl said.

Over the course of his torment, Blokzyl has reached out to others on social media to try to get others to admit knowledge of what was happening. To illustrate his point, Blokzyl gave me the password to his Facebook account so I could read firsthand some of the communications he had about the topic. iStock

ADVERTISING CONTENT PROVIDED AND PAID FOR BY Business, Veterans, “Local Voter Education” & Bob Willoughby Installment #6

There are numerous examples of people who seemed to admit they have knowledge about the network as well as some other disturbing content.

“Everyone knows who is doing it,” Blokzyl said. “There are three families involved in sending the transmissions.”

One of the responders to his questions said he believed the group would help him manipulate a girl into loving him.

“I thought they were devils,” the friend wrote Blokzyl via Facebook messenger.

“I thought they were cops. I thought they were vampires. I don’t know what they are.

But they told me it’s fuckery. I just wanted someone special; thought they would brainwash her into loving me.”

For anyone who wades into the world of targeted individuals — including myself — accusations that you are part of the problem are going to surface. That is the case with Robert Duncan, who has written books on directed energy weapons. According to his biography, Duncan has worked on projects for the Department of Defense, the CIA, and the DOJ. Although he has written books on the topic and made appearances on YouTube channels and television, Duncan’s information on directed energy weapons and voice-to-skull technology has yet to go mainstream.

In a phone interview, I asked him why he believes his allegations have not gone viral like the mass surveillance programs publicly discussed

by National Security Agency (NSA) whistleblowers like Edward Snowden, Bill Binney, and Thomas Drake.

“It would scare people too much,” Duncan said, “and they don’t want the people to panic. … This technology will turn all of Western society on its head, from religions which rely on free will to democracies and voting systems and even controlling political leaders. Silent assassinations. You’ve fooled the doctors, the police, and the legal system, as well.”

The operations are broadcast from various locations in the country — Duncan says he’s not sure where they are — and they’re carried out through radio frequencies and other technology, he said.

“It’s not necessarily one frequency,” Duncan said. “It can be used across the whole spectrum.”

Sometimes “cover stories” are used to conceal the true source of the harassment, which Duncan says almost always involves the government. “The cover story is evil aliens are attacking a person or Satanic cults — they will often play into whatever that person believes in. That’s why it’s very convincing.”

But Duncan maintains that covert continued on page 13

Moore, the targeted-individuals victim and advocate, is one of the most outspoken critics.

He centers most of his videos on what he calls “organized criminal stalking” or “community policing.”

Moore asserts that he is constantly harassed through a law enforcement program that profiles and targets people. The harassment is carried out by law enforcement agencies that partner with residents who are part of a community policing program.

intelligence operations are virtually always behind it.

One of the programs mentioned in Duncan’s book, “Project: Soul Catcher,” describes a system called S.A.T.A.N., which stands for Silent Assassination Through Adaptive Neural Networks.

“It can mean rewiring the brain or rewiring social networks, sort of like what Facebook does,” Duncan told me. “And that’s the psychological warfare tactics. You can make someone fall in love with somebody, or you can disrupt relationships and create new ones. You can rewire the brain — neural networks — to control their emotions, their beliefs. You can type in subliminal messages while they’re dreaming or in their awake state.”

He described the overarching program as “a massive, integrated system, with other subsystems.”

The “very sophisticated” weapons that he studies are cybernetic. “They actually rewire the audio cortex, and so vocabulary words that the target is hearing are coming from within their own brain, not through normal sensory input of the eardrum.”

It sounds like an actual voice that “can even give distance and projection,” Duncan said, “but no one else can hear it or pick it up. It’s specific to the target.”

Deception and trickery are key components of the system, he said.

“You can use any voice that’s ever been over a telephone,” he said. “It’s been databased at the NSA. They only need a sample. The person can be dead, even. And then they can pipe that voice into their heads.”

Duncan said it irritates him that some people believe only diplomats are under attack. A less unassuming target is an easy target because no one would believe him or her. “The craziest one I’ve heard is a woman who could hear voices talking about the FBI through her Rice Krispies popping, her cereal.”

A man also related that he continually hears the Munchkin song from The Wizard of Oz being piped into his head.

For some of the victims, speaking out is the only thing they can do.

channel (United States Anti-Gangstalking Association) and on Facebook have shown strangers lurking in the woods behind his home, walking up on his doorstep and peering in his windows, or shining bright lights into his home. In one of the videos, gunshots are heard being fired outside his home, something Moore said is done to intimidate him.

People sit inside cars at the volunteer fire station adjacent to his home and stare at him. Another video shows an entourage of 13 vehicles — many of them with loud mufflers — parading past his house late at night and pulling into the fire station parking lot.

Moore also reports multiple attempts to run him off the road, some of which have totaled his car. He has managed to escape serious injury, he said.

Through his videos, Moore has also spoken about experienced electromagnetic shocks and other forms of electronic harassment, and he has addressed the items being sold on Amazing1.com.

“I don’t care about the bricks and mortar,” Moore told me in a phone interview.

“I want the clowns using it. I want the heartbeats behind it. Tell me what asshole has been using this.”

Other videos by Moore have shown at least a dozen drones hoovering high above his house.

“As a victim, it’s understood, but it’s not spoken, that we do not have rights,” Moore said. “We have no constitutional rights.

None of those things apply for us.”

Moore has been cited for “cyberstalking” for things he says he has written on his own Facebook page about the people who are harassing him. The reason, he said, is that he has openly accused and named law enforcement officers he believes are responsible for entering him into the program.

Like many targeted individuals, Moore complains of being marginalized and isolated. People who often come into his life — first as advocates, friends, or girlfriends — almost always end up being part of the problem, and a major betrayal or falling out follows, he said.

His main message, Moore said, is telling victims they are not imagining what is happening.

“Never, never, never bounce this off other people for validation,” he said. “Don’t try to convince people, because there are people who are in place for you to tell them, and they’ll make you sound like a lunatic. … “ ‘I believe you,’ ” he said he tells victims.

“That’s my main message.”

He calls the system pure evil, one that causes immense pain for those caught in its snare.

“God is showing us right now what evil is for the first time,” Moore said, “more so than any other generation.” l

People can get aroused by almost anything.

Missionary is fine for most, but others enjoy roleplaying or S&M. Now, these things aren’t for everybody, but a surprisingly large number of people love being tied up and whipped. This is a roundabout way of saying that there’s a reason Elden Ring — the newest, teeth-grindingly difficult game by From Software — is getting such universal acclaim, even while it’s still not for everybody.

With a backstory written by Game of Thrones author George R.R. Martin, Elden Ring takes place in a medieval-like fantasy realm called the Lands Between, where the titular Elden Ring, a mystical object, has been shattered, with pieces of it taken up by demigods who rule over the land.

Players take the role of a Tarnished, a lowly person who can return from the dead, and are tasked with defeating these demigods and their minions to reclaim pieces of the Elden Ring and become the Elden Lord.

How the Tarnished came to be, what becoming the Elden Lord means, and

what the Elden Ring itself even is are things players will have to discover for themselves, because, as with all other From Software games, the story is far from front and center, with only a few vague cutscenes or esoteric lines of dialogue there to clue you in. So, those who enjoy an experience that rewards gameplay with story progression will be sorely disappointed.

No, the point of Elden Ring is the highly refined combat. And, like previous From Software games such as Dark Souls and Bloodborne, the lowliest enemy can slay you in a few hits, so you have to constantly be on your guard. Mechanically, it also functions the exact same as those past From titles: Tarnished are the Undead, explaining why the player’s character can keep returning after dying so frequently; Sites of Lost Grace are Bonfires, relatively safe places where you can level up your character; and Runes are Souls, the game’s currency. Runes drop from slain enemies and are used to level up your character and

make purchases, but if you die, you lose all your runes. You can recover them if you make it back to the spot where you died, but if not — poof! — they’re gone.

The big addition Elden Ring makes to this formula is its massive open world.

Taking heavy cues from Shadow of the Colossus and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, the Lands Between boast a variety of biomes, from gloomy forests to gloomy swamps and gloomy lands destroyed by red blight. It’s not a very cheery place, but it is an exciting one. Still, your ability to interact with this world is pretty limited.

You can run and jump, and your spiritsteed Torrent can double-jump, but that’s about it. This is a place to explore, but what you’ll find isn’t so much a variety of quests but fights, and lots of them. Thankfully, the game’s openness allows you to work your way around tougher enemies and bosses until you’ve either leveled up or have found a new tool or skill to make them easier to deal with. In this way, Elden

Ring is more approachable than the mostly linear past From games, and it also lets you pick and choose how difficult you want the game to be. However, even finding those new tools and tricks means more grueling combat, so players who haven’t found joy in dying constantly and trying again in previous From games likely won’t have their minds changed.

Graphically, the game is nearly stunning, with enemies ranging from generic medieval soldiers to “WTF is that?!” monstrosities made of limbs grafted onto one another. However, technically, it’s far from optimized. Heavy pop-in of things like grass is noticeable even on the PS5, with entire fields appearing out of nowhere, and too many enemies on screen at once can make character movement seem like stiff stop-motion animation.

Also, this is the first From Software game to feature jumping, and it feels like it — the platforming, of which there is much in this vast world, is by and large terrible.

Players who enjoy facing the same boss dozens of times for that final heartpounding victory are going to continue finding the same thrill they love in Elden Ring’s massive, cruel world. And plenty of newcomers seem to be enjoying it as well, if the games sales are any indication. There are still plenty of players who this game will not convert, who will enjoy more leisurely activities like doing their taxes or getting maced in the face. l

surprised to see bacon, mozzarella, and pepperoni on the menu during my first visit. Once I placed my orders and sat down to munch on the steamy, hot slices of pie, it all made sense. Pizza Verde’s plant-based menu was crafted to appeal to anyone.

And, yes, everything is 100% vegan.

Pizza Verde recently opened in the same strip mall where Mariachi’s DineIn transplanted last year. The restaurant’s interior is simple and presumably more geared for to-go orders, although there are five tables in the single dining area. A cooler near the register boasted cans of craft beer and wine. Upbeat funk tunes must have been the theme of the day.

The bruschetta was light and refreshing. Six lightly toasted slices of bread came topped with veggie-based mozzarella slices, oregano, and a blend of diced tomatoes and balsamic vinegar.

The drizzles of olive oil and black pepper on top defined the dish that delivered what one would expect from a lovingly crafted bruschetta.

The Bacon and Brussels pie had generous shreds of smoky faux bacon that was texturally very similar to the real thing. The plant-based meat looked surprisingly like bacon and even had

alternating white and red layers that mimicked animal protein and fat. The almond-based cheese had an oily profile and texture like mozzarella but was largely flavorless. Finely minced Brussels sprouts added a pleasant bitter profile that balanced the acidic balsamic vinaigrette drizzles.

Up next was the Potato Leek, which, according to Pizza Verde’s website, is the pizzeria’s most popular entree. Although visually unimpressive, each bite was a delight. Bits of rosemary and drizzles of lemon aioli gave it a pleasing herbaceous taste that lingered in the mouth.

The thinly sliced potatoes had almost melted into the sea of veggie cheese and diced leeks. It was clear why this option is popular with regulars.

Pizza Verde Potato Leek ............................................... $15 Kimchi ........................................................ $15 Bacon and Brussels .................................. $16 Salted caramel gelato .............................. $7 Bruschetta ................................................. $8

Simply named Kimchi, the Asianinspired pie had bright red chunks of the fermented cabbage that Korean cuisine is famed for. Deep green leaves of spinach and sprinklings of sesame seeds made it visually resplendent. Each bite had a lovely bit of heat, courtesy of the kimchi, and the underlying bed of dairyfree cheese made the overall experience a savory delight.

For dessert, the salted caramel gelato didn’t disappoint. The gelato itself was surrounded by bits of pecan and cookie crumbles that reminded me of the Biscoff cookies served on Delta flights.

(Those little things are addictive af.) The dry and crispy goodies, along with the nuts, added a lovely crunch to the silkysmooth frozen dessert.

My overall experience was unlike anything I’ve had in Fort Worth. For around $15 a pizza, it wasn’t a beltbusting experience, and that’s the point.

Each wood-fired pie comfortably serves two. The dough was cooked to perfection — lightly charred on the outside and dense and chewy throughout. By cutting out animal products but retaining nearly all of the aspects of Italian cuisine that make it popular (fresh ingredients, balanced and nuanced flavors), Pizza Verde offers Fort Worthians a health-conscious option that doesn’t compromise on flavor. l

Everything Everywhere All at Once Starring Michelle Yeoh and Ke Huy Quan. Written and directed by The Daniels. Rated R.

Destroyed by a Bagel Well, this is crazy.

B Y

K R I S T I A N

L I N

Jamie Lee Curtis and Michelle Yeoh commiserate outside a Laundromat decorated for Chinese New Year in Everything Everywhere All at Once.

personality and informs Evelyn that an agent of chaos, namely their gay collegedropout daughter Joy (Stephanie Hsu), is going around destroying all the universes parallel to theirs. This universe’s version of Evelyn is the best hope to stop the threat to the multiverse because she is all unfulfilled potential — Waymond says, “You are capable of anything because you are so bad at everything!” Using ridiculous means to access her alternate selves, Evelyn acquires her more accomplished alter egos’ skills as a movie star, a teppanyaki chef, a cleaning lady, a rock, a piñata, a sign spinner, a Peking opera singer, and a woman with sausages for fingers. She eventually learns that Joy has achieved all her destruction by building an everything bagel out of the nothingness and despair of existence, as well as salt, garlic, poppy seeds, and other ingredients. “The bagel is where we find peace,” says Joy.

Too silly? More is to come. In this movie, all the characters suddenly acquire kung fu proficiency at one point or another, which leads to the wackiest martial-arts sequences since Scott Pilgrim vs. the World.

Waymond swings his fanny pack and takes down a team of security guards, the IRS auditor (Jamie Lee Curtis) leaps down a stairwell to attack Evelyn, and a cosseted dry-cleaning customer (Jenny Slate) uses her leashed Pomeranian like a chain mace, twirling the dog above her head and hitting Evelyn in the face with it. The fights are choreographed by Andy Le, who played the henchman in Shang-Chi, and he looks like a rising star as he has his stuntpeople use office equipment as weapons. A bigger budget might have helped us differentiate between the worlds, but the Daniels do a fine job of that nevertheless, rendering all the mayhem with incredible staging, from the animated interludes to the Hereditary-

style flickering lights in the IRS office to the Wong Kar-Wai-like chiaroscuro in the subplot when movie-star Evelyn meets a rich, single Waymond.

Much like Scott Pilgrim, this film’s brilliance unfortunately becomes exhausting rather than invigorating. The movie is divided into a prologue and three parts, and it loses momentum noticeably in Part II (which is well toward the end of this 139-minute epic) as it tries to navigate its multiverse while keeping to its emotional beats. Joy’s desire to end all worlds comes from being continually pushed back in the closet by Evelyn, who’s afraid that her own aged father (James Hong) will die of shame if he learns the truth. This is great, especially since Curtis is funny as an auditor who’s hyperintense about her job, the 93-year-old Hong contributes some bracing line readings, and Quan — remember him as a boy in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom and The Goonies? — does some deft shifting among the various versions of Waymond.

Even so, the Daniels can’t keep this from feeling overstuffed.

Yet if it doesn’t always succeed, Everything Everywhere All at Once’s failures are the failures of a crazy, brave film that seeks to expand the philosophy of martialarts movies beyond the genre’s traditional Buddhist koans. Amid all the puerile gags about tax receipts and hot dogs, the Daniels are urging us to connect with the people in this world, and the hijinks somehow make their message strangely moving. It is a unique achievement. l

After watching Everything Everywhere All at Once, one thing is clear: The Daniels are over multiverses. I refer to the filmmaking team made up of Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, who made an unforgettable debut with 2016’s Swiss Army Man. Their second film is in a similar vein but far more ambitious, as they strive to transform the concept of parallel universes from a plot convenience of superhero movies to something expressive about the human condition, though you could argue SpiderMan: No Way Home was after the same thing. Whatever, there’s no denying that this martial-arts movie is the Being John Malkovich of our generation and a mustsee for devotees of weird cinema like me.

The film begins at a Southern California Laundromat owned by Evelyn Wang (Michelle Yeoh) and her sad-sack husband Waymond (Ke Huy Quan), who live in the apartment above the washers and dryers. On the way to an IRS audit one day, Waymond abruptly changes

John “JZ” Zaskoda has been one of Fort Worth’s more renowned guitar players for more than 20 years. Whether touring with professional country acts or flashing tasty pentatonic runs at local blues jams, he’s been an ever-present fixture in the city’s more guitar-centric music scenes for decades.

He’s best known for applying his signature Mark Knopfler-style pick-free playing while fronting the blues-rock outfit Dirty Pool since 2005. While sharing stages with his personal guitar heroes like Larry McCray and local blues legend Buddy Whittington — or with keyboardist Justin Pate, bassist John Shook Jr., and drummer Brandon Wallace as Dirty Pool for so long — has certainly been fulfilling, he felt like there was always something missing. Though Dirty Pool had tracked a demo that circulated the scene some years ago, the band had never tried to record a “proper” album until now.

“It was a moment for me last year where I looked at my life,” Zaskoda said. “I’m closer to 50 than I am to 40, and when it’s all said and done, I looked at where I’ve had

successes and where I had deficits. One of the things I’ve always wanted to do was to do this record, so after a little bit of hustle, I got the cash together and surprised the guys and said, ‘We’re going into the studio. It’s now or never.’ ” After culling through 16 years’ worth of material, the group went into 7013 Sound, studio of engineer Grant Jackson Wilburn (Ryan Bingham, Red Shahan), to track the eight songs that make up the appropriately titled Late Bloomer, due out next month.

“Everything came together very quickly,” Zaskoda said of the recording experience. “I’m excited for everything to finally come to light. All this time we’ve spent playing together, to have an original project — not only is everyone excited, but it’s a huge relief, and everyone is really happy with how it’s turned out.”

To promote the highly anticipated debut, Dirty Pool has released a pair of singles: the tender, smoky blues ballad “Dangerous Frequency” and, out just this past Friday, “Head Start,” a blazing ZZ Topesque rocker featuring the aforementioned Whittington on guitar. Though Zaskoda said he’ll take credit for the songwriting and that to alleviate confusion with other artists named Dirty Pool on streaming platforms, he reluctantly allowed the group to be listed as “JZ & Dirty Pool,” he said it’s the contributions from the players, the guys in the band, as well as guests like Whittington, that really make Late Bloomer what it is.

“I originally went into it like, ‘I just want to record these songs really quick so I have them and because I’ve been saying I’m going to do it,’ ” he said. “And then all these people came in, and it just changed the entire landscape of what I wanted to do. All these people who were invested because they knew our history, how it had been forever. Really, it’s the players that make this album what it is. If it wasn’t for them, it’d be nothing.”

In addition to Whittington, the record features contributions from the likes of Squeezebox Bandits’ Abel Casillas on

accordion, renowned harmonica player Gary Grammer, keyboards from Retrophonics’ Chris Watson, and additional vocals from fellow blues rocker-turned-country crooner Josh Weathers.

“We’ve just been fortunate to have been around for so long that we have all these great relationships with so many great players,” Zaskoda said about the band’s ability to recruit so many recognized outside contributors. “Buddy [Whittington] said, ‘Hell, I’d be offended if you hadn’t asked me.’ ” Though the blues certainly forms the bones of the tracks on Late Bloomer, the band stretches that foundation into other sounds.

“Heartbreak Avenue” and the album’s title track could easily be at home on 95.9-FM The Ranch, while the white hot “VooDoo Mama” and “Bonecrusher” could liven any biker rally with their heavier buzzsaw sonics.

“Calling something ‘blues-rock’ is sort of a fatal stab,” Zaskoda said about the niche quality to the genre, “but if you listen to the record, there’s no way someone could call it a blues record.”

Along with a string of singles — the third, “Breakdown,” premieres April 22 — the band is generating interest in the LP with a series of documentary videos.

The fifth installment to the series, Formerly Unknown, was posted to YouTube last Friday.

The sixth and final episode will coincide with the next single. Through recording footage, interviews, and old videos of live performances, the series, written and created

by Zaskoda, brings the viewer along Dirty Pool’s endearing 16-year journey, one that, in a way, might really just be beginning.

“It’s long overdue,” Zaskoda said. “It’s probably cliche to say things work out the way they’re supposed to, but, to me, it’s true with this. The four guys in this band deserved a great record, and I feel like we’ve got one. I hope people listen to it and like it.

If nothing else, maybe it inspires others to try to do something worthwhile, even if it’s very, very late.” l

Hearsay Lola’s Relocating to TCU-land

Lola’s combined Trailer Park and Saloon that have been West 7th-area staples since 2008 will mosey on into 2000 W. Berry St., the former home of the Berry Street Ice House, The Moon Bar, and Americado.

Lola’s owner Brian Forella hopes to be open

by June 1.

Lola’s current and future footprints are about the same, he said. Inside 2000 W. Berry is 3,750 square feet, and its backyard is “pretty damn big,” Forella said. Work on an outdoor stage will begin soon.

Forella is still waiting to hear back from the city on what his capacity will be, but he expects it to be comparable to Lola’s combined, which is somewhere in the 750 range.

Twenty-five parking spots are available behind 2000 W. Berry, with 18 spots along the east side of the building. While waiting

to see if parking at the landlord’s adjacent buildings will also become available during peak business hours for Lola’s, Forella is discussing valet parking with nearby H.S. Paschal High School, especially for big shows.

Forella will close the Saloon on May 8 with a “blowout” and keep the Trailer Park open “until about a week out” from Day 1 at 2000 W. Berry.

Though he doesn’t expect to add to his staff of 15 “right off the bat,” Forella believes he will be compelled to hire more workers eventually.

There’s no word yet on whether Dayne’s Craft Barbecue will also make the move. The popular food truck has been a fixture at Lola’s for several years now.

Since 2000 W. Berry comes with a full kitchen, the new Lola’s will serve food “after 3” on most days.

“We’re not a restaurant,” Forella said.

“I don’t want the tea-drinking lunch crowd.

I’m trying to sell booze, not tea.”

APRIL 15 - 17

Forella expects to also bring in food trucks for particularly busy weekends.

For the veteran club owner, the move is “scary” but necessary.

“We don’t really fit anymore,” he said, mentioning that Lola’s departure from West 7th follows similar trajectories for two other long-time, some would say “hip” or “anticlubby” West 7th spots, Fred’s Texas Cafe and Magnolia Motor Lounge.

“The parking’s getting worse and worse, and doing 700 people for live music turned into more of a pain in the ass,” Forella said. “Nobody can park, and we just started getting noise complaints where we haven’t gotten them in years.”

There’s a lot of development planned for West 7th, including a high-rise toward which the Trailer Park’s outdoor stage faces.

“All the stuff around us is getting sold,” Forella said. “It’s encroaching on top of us. …

There’s pictures of it. There are renderings of [all the new development] somewhere. In

the renderings, there’s no Lola’s, so that’s kind of the writing on the wall.”

Forella does not plan on altering music or entertainment programming. The soonto-be-christened Lola’s Fort Worth will still host progressive, original, frequently local rock/punk, country, and hip-hop and the popular Rock ’n’ Roll Rummage Sale, and the boutique at the Trailer Park, Honeysuckle Rose Vintage, will follow Forella to his new digs. While he feels he may be losing his West 7th regulars, he hopes to create new ones from the nearby Near Southside — many of whom often travel to West 7th for Lola’s shows, Forella said — and, of course, TCU. “TCU people are more than welcome, though I don’t think it’s going to be a big TCU bar,” Forella said. “It’ll be cool. I’m not coming over here to shoot for the TCU kids, basically, but they’re more than welcome.”

The interests the group or association seeks to protect must also be identified. You may also submit your proposed adjustments to the application/permit which would satisfy your concerns.

The deadline to submit a request for a contested case hearing is 30 days after newspaper notice is published. If a request is timely filed, the deadline for requesting a contested case hearing will be extended to 30 days after the mailing of the response to comments.

If a hearing request is timely filed, following the close of all applicable comment and request periods, the Executive Director will forward the application and any requests for contested case hearing to the Commissioners for their consideration at a scheduled Commission meeting. The Commission may only grant a request for a contested case hearing on issues the requestor submitted in their timely comments that were not subsequently withdrawn.
