If you've been reading <a href="http://www.wackemall.com/" target="_blank">Wackemall.com</a> then you already know I'm writing real people into imaginary situations but what you might not realize is that some of the situations are very much real. For example, the bear scene in episode #41. <a href="http://cyclemuse.blogspot.com/2013/01/hellphone.html" target="_blank">Hellphone</a> actually happened to me. And before you ask, yes it did scare the crap out of me.<br />
<br />
Most recently I added Ms <a href="http://www.facebook.com/bobbie.sonner" target="_blank">Bobbie Sonner</a>, to fill in for me back home while my character is on the lam.You'll also notice I recently included a real performance by the Raving Knaves, a great Punk Rock band from right here in Greensboro, North Carolina. And the places are real too.<br />
<br />
Soon I'll introduce you to Andy, the Alarm Rooster. He'll become part of the story as well. Andy is also real and lives in my back yard along with Mr Green Jeans and the rest of my flock. I didn't plan on having 2 roosters but growing up Andy didn't exhibit any traits of being a male so I thought Andy was an Annie. Andy would squat in submission just like the hens when Mr Green Jeans, myself or the dominant hens touched him, run from everything that moved and in his youth was the easiest bird to handle I've ever owned. He used to follow me all over the yard, jump in my lap anytime I sat down and loved to be petted-- behaviors very uncommon for roosters. And while Andy doesn't warm up to people the way he used to he is still what folks would consider a very gentle rooster.<br />
<br />
But Andy has this peculiar habit unlike any other rooster I've ever owned. At night, whenever anyone or anything other than my cat walks into my yard, Andy starts crowing his fool head off. 'Possum, raccoon, prowler, me, anything other than that black feral cat and Andy goes off in about 2 seconds flat. Mr Green Jeans, he sleeps right through it but not young Andy.<br />
<br />
When it comes to watching out for hawks and finding food for the flock Andy is just about useless. He's oblivious to threats from overhead and digging in the garden? He acts as he might be afraid he'll get his feet dirty. Only one hen in the entire flock will allow him to mate with her, the rest chase him across the yard pulling out his tail feathers every time he tries. And fighting off a predator? Andy runs from the squirrls so that ain't going to happen. I swear I think I've seen the cat laughing at him. But it was just about the time that I was deciding that Andy was going to have to go that he started displaying this newfound talent for working nights as a security guard so with that in mind I've decided to keep him on a little longer.<br />
<br />
After all, Andy works for chicken feed.</div>

It's a new way, real motorcycles, real products made locally in North
Carolina and real people combined with fiction coming soon at <a href="http://www.wackemall.com/">Wackemall.com </a>The story is already unfolding, the shop is real and the products will
be soon. It's taken a lifetime to put it all together and there's still a
lot to do but in the next few hours the story will begin to be told and
in the next few months the products will be sold. Or, we'll fail again

Was this the inspiration for <i><a href="http://cyclemuse.blogspot.com/2012/12/first-glance.html">When I Were A Motorcycle</a>?</i> I don't think it was but being I first saw it a couple of years ago it could have been hiding somewhere in the back of my mind. I don't doubt that as writers we are somehow influenced by everything that has come before us. As to where influence ends and inspiration begins... well, I guess I'll let you figure that out on your own.

I guess a few of my readers are wondering just who the Tall White Aliens
happen to be. For that and how we rid our city of them you'll just have
to wait, no spoilers here.<br />
<br />
I do plan to go back later and add more photographs and video to the
story. If you have pictures of any of the characters doing crazy stuff
send them to <a href="mailto:recyclebill@gmail.com">recyclebill@gmail.com</a>
and I'll see if I can dream up a way to write them into the story.
Please, no evidence unless it's against the Tall White Aliens. Any
crimes my friends have committed are water under the bridge and paid for
a long time ago. Besides, odds are good I already know about it.<br />
<br />
You'll notice I've been referencing real places in the text of the
story. That's because I like these places or they're places I go. As the
story grows and our travels expand you can expect to see more. I've
even considered commercial placements like is done in television and
movies but thus far haven't done so.<br />
<br />
Some of the inventions mentioned or variations of said inventions are
actually going to be produced in limited numbers in our Burlington shop.
That's right. Steve, Wooley, Donny and I really do have a shop in
Downtown Burlington. Steve actually owns the property but all of our
tools are there and as soon as we finish a few more repairs on the 1930s
brick building we'll get started building bikes and other things
including the Wackemall 750, the first of many Wackemall Motorcycles we
hope to build right here in North Carolina.<br />
<br />
You see, while I like to consider myself creative, it's Donny, Steve and
Wooley who really know how to build things. I come up with ideas, they
strip away the nonsense and make it real. That's what they do at their
full time jobs and why we believe that together the four of us can do
almost anything. Besides, like I write in the book, we enjoy our time
together.<br />
<br />
Our long term goal is to eventually exceed our ability to produce and be
forced to hire other local manufacturers to make our products for us
while we distribute them to retailers. Of course, we'll start out with
an online store but retail is not where we want to stay. We see
manufacturing as a key driver of the economy and dream of bringing at
least a little bit of manufacturing back home to North Carolina and the
USA.<br />
<br />
And if I have to start giving away all my books online for free to make
it happen? Well, I've penned something over 40 titles thus far, might as
well put them to good use.</div>

It's time Steve, Donny and Wooley got some of the limelight and I took a
back seat. After all, we are all in this thing together and they've
certainly earned it. The problem for me is that this book is based on
previous books in which they were never a part of. But that's okay as
I'm sure if I ponder it long enough before going to sleep I'll be able
to dream up some great adventures for the three of them in some of the
upcoming chapters. <br />
<br />I also plan to wax poetic and get a little philosophical. Just
remember, it's all fiction. Well, as far as anyone knows it's all
fiction.</div>

In <a href="http://cyclemuse.blogspot.com/p/contents-and-cover.html">Chapter 19</a> we made a visit to <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Mahis/113239218697702">Mahi's Seafood Restaurant</a>
in Greensboro. For those who might not know, Mahi's is owned by
Greensboro City Council Woman, Marikay Abuzuaiter. Will we trash the
place as biker gangs are rumored to do and take over the entire City of
Greensboro. Truth is: that is something manufactured by the main stream
media based on something called the 1947 Hollister Invasion in
Hollister, California but the real culprits in Hollister weren't the
so-called "outlaw bikers" a term not yet in use but was in fact inept
American Motorcycle Association management.
<br /><br />
But that didn't stop newspapers from printing articles like, <a href="http://www.cestcop.com/chron1.htm">HAVOK IN HOLLISTER</a>.
<br /><br />
Even today, Hollister, California has less than 35,000 residents. In
1947 there were only 4000 people living there, the AMA put up big prize
money and opened the event to everyone and everyone showed up. Hollister
only employed 7 police officers total. They called it the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hollister_riot">Hollister Riot</a>
but just what would anyone expect to happen when 4000 people show up
for an event only to find there is no place to stay and nothing to do
but get drunk.
<br /><br />
<i>"Eyewitnesses were quoted as saying, "It's just one hell of a
mess",[4] but that "[the motorcyclists] weren't doing anything bad, just
riding up and down whooping and hollering; not really doing any harm at
all."</i>
<br /><br />
50 people were arrested. According to the Hollister Chief of Police,
most of them were from nearby towns. 60 injuries were reported but none
of the injuries were to Hollister residents-- not one.
<br /><br />
<i>"A City-Council member stated, "Luckily, there appears to be no
serious damage. These trick riders did more harm to themselves than the
town."</i>
<br /><br />
As a matter of fact: the City of Hollister has held many more motorcycle
rallies and races since 1947 so apparently even they didn't think
bikers to be all that bad to have around. Maybe it's time Greensboro had
some motorcycle related events?
<br /><br />
And no, this book is far from over. There's so much more of you and me to write about...

There's 5 main characters in this book but so far I'm the character that
has gotten the most print-- far more than any of the rest. In a few
minutes when I lay me down to sleep I'm going to try and suggest to
myself that I dream of bigger rolls for the others. Will it work? I
donno but in the past I have on occasion managed to influence my dreams
so wish me luck so Donny, Steve and Wooley will all get the attention
they deserve. After all, if it weren't for their support and tolerance
I'd never be able to pen this story.</div>

Steve, Wooley and I were talking about the book today and wondering if
perhaps it's time I added some strong sexy females and perhaps some
romance. It's not something I would find hard to do but as Wooley is
fond of saying, "Every solution creates its own set of problems."<br />
<br />
You see, Wooley is a married man and my casting him with a seductive
female might not go over well at home. Could I write his wife into the
story? I'm going to walk very softly around that question.<br />
<br />
Steve and his wife are legally separated so I guess it would be okay but
his wife and I have been friends for over 20 years and she's not really
a bad person... That said, she appreciates good fiction so I guess I
would just need to make sure I write good fiction.<br />
<br />
As for Donny and his wife? Donny didn't want to be in the book in the
first place but as my brother and a partner in our business he got out
voted 3 to 1. That said, I just can't see my sister-in-law filling a
leading female role in the book so I just might need to write a female
to opposite Donny. Or not.<br />
<br />
And alas, there's me, divorced for 26 years with no prospects. Since I
have no woman in my life should I make one up, pick someone I know and
write her in as the hot female lead with which I have imaginary
relations or cast some well known Hollywood starlet in the roll without
her knowing.<br />
<br />
Any women out there who want to be characters in a really unusual, if
not well written, online novel? It could be a good opportunity for the
right ladies.<a href="mailto:recyclebill@gmail.com" rel="nofollow"> recyclebill@gmail.com</a></div>

I dream these stories as I write them but in most instances I know the
ending almost as soon as I know the beginning. What I don't know is how I
get from beginning to end.
<br /><br />
Oh sure, sometimes I get waking glimpses, flashes into where the story
is going to take me but sometimes those glimpses are simply alternate
reality... er, I mean, alternate fiction sort of things that flash at me
during my waking moments.
<br /><br />
What really dictates where the story goes is what takes place in my
dreams. I dream it then when I awake I pen it to paper or in recent
years, type it to a computer hard drive. When I was working for a living
it often mean I was about to lose another job. You see, and I know most
won't understand, when I keep a story bottled up inside of me and don't
stop doing everything else to get it out I literally become quite
insane and impossible to deal with. The poems and stories I write are
how I cope with the pressures of living in this crazy world. They are
what stops me from becoming a school shooter or going postal.
<br /><br />
Should you be scared? Should anyone be scared? Not as long as I'm being
creative, off the wall, stubborn, argumentative and doing what most of
you consider to be crazy things. It's when I stop being crazy and
creative that you need worry.
<br /><br />
Of course, writing isn't my only outlet. I <a href="http://greensboroperformingarts.blogspot.com/">torture</a> the local political elite to no end, build things like the <a href="http://www.lassiter.com/mov/jones.html">streetplane</a>
most of the world knows me for and believe it or not, Steve, Wooley,
Donny and I really do work on and ride motorcycles. And someday we
really do hope to turn it into a business. We invent things too. There
was a time when I sang as well but a local doctor ruined that for me
just as I landed a recording contract.
<br /><br />
Anyway, as I was saying, the stories come out and I have to write them.
The interruption of my life is something employers never learned to deal
with and family barely tolerates probably only because they've seen
what happens when I don't write. But as awkward as it is the process
remains amazing even to this day watching these stories unfold in my
dreams as livid as if they were a movie playing right before my eyes,
short stories in a single nap, novels over a period of weeks or months,
knowing all along where I'm going but never knowing how I'm going to get
there.
<br /><br />
So you see, for me, even knowing the ending doesn't ruin the story.
<br /><br />
By the way, I just posted <a href="http://cyclemuse.blogspot.com/p/contents-and-cover.html">another chapter</a> and <a href="http://cyclemuse.blogspot.com/search/label/poetry">another poem</a>.

I made mention of Chocolate Gravy in Chapter 9, <a href="http://cyclemuse.blogspot.com/2012/12/new-river-valley.html">New River Valley</a>
and I'm sure most folks thought it purely fiction but family members
leaving Momma's house just about now know full well it is very much real
and has been passed down through generations of my mother's family, the
Hartsoes, for well over 100 years, perhaps 300-400 years or more.
Here's a biscuit covered with hot chocolate gravy just moments before
being devoured by your's truly just this morning.
<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-J99-j3gJ5Ow/UNnXFqbmg1I/AAAAAAAAB2c/aLnq0ekhZjE/s1600/Chocolate+Gravy+001.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-J99-j3gJ5Ow/UNnXFqbmg1I/AAAAAAAAB2c/aLnq0ekhZjE/s320/Chocolate+Gravy+001.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
How do you make Chocolate Gravy? Here's about <a href="http://www.bing.com/search?form=MOZPSB&pc=MOZO&q=chocolate+gravy+recipe">a million recipes</a>-- take your pick.
<br />
<br />
Times are hard and like a lot of families we've had to cut back again
this year but we made sure the kids got presents and the family gathered
for Christmas breakfast just as we've done as long as I can remember.
I'm saddened that <a href="http://cyclemuse.blogspot.com/p/about.html">Jason</a>
will never be able to join us for Christmas again and that there will
never be any grandchildren to continue my line but the smiling faces of
the great nephews and great nieces are always a joy to behold even if
they all do think me their crazy uncle. And admittedly, it was fun
watching my 17 year old niece squirm as I told her boyfriend (the first
she's introduced to the family) things she'd rather he not know. You
know, things we adults would think nothing of but teenage girls still
freak over.
<br />
<br />
And while he thought it cool he might end up a good guy in a book, she was freaked to no end. Typical teenagers, right?
<br />
<br />
I've added a <a href="http://cyclemuse.blogspot.com/p/sponsors.html">Sponsors</a>
page as well but not all are really sponsors in the real sense of the
way we usually think of sponsors. Some are just good friends trying to
eek out a living who I thought deserved a mention and an occasional leg
up because they're good people doing good things, folks like <a href="http://www.brianheagney.com/">Brian Heagney</a>, environmentalist, homeless advocate, architect and children's author whose book, <a href="http://www.amazon.com/ABCs-Anarchy-1-Brian-Heagney/dp/1453687815/?tag=hydfbook0e-20&ascsubtag=US-SAGE-1356107148024-JQMWW">The ABC's of Anarchy</a>
could stand to sell a few more copies to help Brian and his wife take
care of that darling little girl they're raising. You see, I want this
book to be a book about good things no matter how badly written it might
be.
<br />
<br />
Now if you'd like to become a real sponsor or even if you just want to
comment on what I've written here you may contact me by e-mail at <a href="mailto:Recyclebill@gmail.com">Recyclebill@gmail.com</a>
and I'll get back to you ASAP. Yes, I could enable live commenting here
but because to do so would also enable commenting in the story itself I
thought it better I disable commenting altogether. If I think your
comment is of value to my other readers I'll be more than happy to post
it along with attribution and links back to your blog or website if you
wish. With some exceptions, of course.

<i>When I Were A Motorcycle</i> is a novel in the making. But it's also a combination of things real and imagined. I began writing <i>When I Were A Motorcycle</i> as part of the recovery process after having lost my son, <a href="http://cyclemuse.blogspot.com/p/about.html">Jason Alan Jones</a>
as being creative helps me to heal. Sharing it online is a way to let
friends, family, my therapist and the world know I've not given up hope
for my own life. Besides, Jason loved off the wall and if my writing is
anything it's off the wall. Not great, just off the wall.

I didn't plan for it to be but as it turns out this newest novel is one of several sequels to <a href="http://www.vegetablestalker.com/">The Adventures Of The Vegetable Stalker</a>. Perhaps you've seen me on Twitter <a href="https://twitter.com/VeggieStalker">@VeggieStalker</a> though I'm most well known for writing <a href="http://www.bloggingpoet.com/">BloggingPoet.com</a>.
Sadly, because of financial difficulties I was forced to remove over 10
years of archives from the web when I moved from paid to free servers
about a year ago.
<br />
<br />
The other sequels were all online at one time or another and were titled, <i>BILLY'S
WILD SALSA COOKBOOK, Texmex For Rednecks And the Adventurers of the
Wild Salsa Gang, SWEETFEED, The Autobiography of Jack T. Mule</i> and <i>THE RETURN OF THE VEGETABLE STALKER</i>. I've also published several books in print but my only book currently in print is a children's book titled <a href="http://astore.amazon.com/booksbybillyjones-20/detail/1419650653">Reindeer Tales</a> available from that giant online bookseller we all love and love to hate. Anyway, back to what this book is all about.
<br />
<br />
I've long been a fan of writing online because the Internet allows me
depth the printed page does not. With no more than a hyperlink I can add
another dimension to a page, paragraph, sentence or even a single <a href="http://otromisterio.files.wordpress.com/2011/03/cuarta-dimensic3b3n.jpg" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">word. </a>See
what I mean. The Internet also allows multimedia adding even more depth
and dimension to what was before, just a flat piece of paper. Before
I'm done I plan to add audio and video to this novel as well. I'm not
saying these other mediums should be a substitute for great writing,
just that they are tools that allow writers to do more, tools I want to
try my hand at using.
<br />
<br />
But it won't end there. You're also going to see us build stuff, invent
things and restore a real motorcycle from the ground up as the completed
novel will include what is commonly known as a motorcycle build thread
written right into the story line. You see, like the story says, I
really do sometimes get old motorcycles from salvage yards for parts or
restoration.
<br />
<br />
So what are the things we'll be inventing. Well for starters, without
giving away any trade secrets, my partners and I are already working on
an anti carjacking device that could be factory installed on new cars or
retrofitted to used cars. No, it won't be cheap but it will send the
bad guys away. We'll unveil it in the pages of this novel as part of the
story.
<br />
<br />
I'm also thinking I might highlight some talent. Writing this story is
going to be a long time in the making and will involve some actual
travel. We're going to turn you on to some of the folks who turn us on
in the process, as part of the story. Yeah, we might have to drag a few
of them outside of their normal comfort zones into things they don't
normally do but you, I and them will all be better off for it. Now if I
could just convince my brother Donny that nothing bad will come from
being written into this novel. After all, I wrote my youngest brother,
Ronny, into <i>BILLY's WILD SALSA COOKBOOK</i> and nothing bad happened to him.
<br />
<br />
So take a look around the site. The <a href="http://cyclemuse.blogspot.com/p/contents-and-cover.html">Table of Contents</a> will help you keep up with the story, the <a href="http://cyclemuse.blogspot.com/search/label/Blog">Blog</a> (what you're reading now) will let you know what's going on behind the scenes, <a href="http://cyclemuse.blogspot.com/">Motomusings</a> is simply everything that is posted as it's posted and <a href="http://cyclemuse.blogspot.com/search/label/poetry">The Motorcycle Speaks</a>
are the many poems told to myself and others by the Wackemall 750
motorcycle as he tells his life's stories in no particular order.
<br />
<br />
And please, don't forget to check back often. Who knows, you might find you're a character in the story.
