Letter From The Editor:  This Is Exactly How RKFDnews Began With Nothing to Become a Big Nothing To Break The Noose in a Poor Old American City like The Rockford of Illinois

Chief Tchad Beale, Editor, and his fiancé, Linda, enjoy fine dining in the state of Wisconsin before heading back to The Rockford for laughs.

The Rockford is filled with local makers and wonderful stories about how we’ve risen above the ashes of the late 70s and early 80s recession to prosper throughout the 2000’s recession.  I am fortunate to have a valuable and underpaid staff at RKFDnews.

We are makers, official self-made noose breakers who don’t play by fucking rules.  The rules written by men are filled with follies to be fooled with until you realize you are saved from being institutionalized into everyone else.  Break that noose or hang in there–you’ll get it either way.

Many poor people from The Rockford of Illinois have written our staff to ask us, “How did RKFDnews begin?  Who is Chief Tchad Beale?  How can I meet Jay Vannigan, Lisa Soland, Chuck Toncha, Ron Kites and the rest of your staff?”

Thank you for your interests. Let me tell all of you a story about how RKFDnews began with nothing to become a big nothing in a poor American city called The Rockford.  A place where poor people make stuff so that politicians, public charities, community leaders, developers and the very few 1% can funnel federal and state grants into their pockets from all of your hard work and time time spent making stuff in broad daylight.

I used to be Mr. Chad Beale, a man who answered to scumbags, sales sluts and proud illiterate hillbillies on Burger King breakfast benders to end up laid off, fired or forced to quit more than a half dozen times after being passed over for countless promotions, overworked and underpaid jobs that went to proud, elitist, illiterate, corrupt and self-entitled American hillbillies.

I woke up unemployed for the last time in The Rockford of Illinois around 10 years ago last month–having answered to a man named after a dog, Sparky–and decided to become Chief Tchad Beale. Along the way a tribe of Pizza Warriors gathered round the The Rockford chair with me to stare at The Rockford rope and we laughed over a few pizzas from Capri Restaurant.

Capri, The RockfordChuck Toncha said, “Balding bastards and fat-ass bitches with bad intents need to know there is a new baseball team in town that is ready to play ball with balloons filled with brown river water!”

Mr. Toncha was onto something. We immediately stopped eating the pizza.

“The Rockford of Illinois, a place were you can be anyone,” said Gilbert Grebner. We laughed.

“Why not be noose breakers?”, said Jay Vannigan to Theodore Lepolli, Ron Kites and myself.  We stopped laughing and began thinking about the future of nothing in The Rockford and there it happened, together with the pizza.

The initial idea of RKFDnews was born because of delicious pizza and brilliant well-read minds converging to battle misery–for it had no place in our company.  Misery does not like company we decided.

We gathered a few more times to eat more pizza and discuss how to go about giving poor people who still enjoy reading the options to break their own noose for free or not to. I t was decided early on that pushing the buttons of an entire region with truths rewritten to be The Rockford lies we all desire to wake up to was more important than making The Rockford monies.

My entire staff had learned over the last 20-30 years of being someone else’s bitch and/or master slave that there’s not a healthy cash flow in our community that hasn’t been tampered and polluted with by state and federal grants. We prefer to call the local cash flow that does exists “middle class blood money.”  A middle class that’s now massacred by the same nepotistic scumbags and elitist hillbillies mentioned above.

Taking tips from our career counselor and life coach–a regional CEO and LORD of ALL in the YOU$A™–Lord Thomas Derby of Derby | Reynolds, Schaumburg, Illinois–we thought: “Why can’t we break The Rockford’s noose by turning their celebrated mediocrity and misery into insanity to break their grip on life, to save them from their own fat pride?”

“That’s right,” said our Lord and CEO of ALL to our staff at a Friday Funday lunch meeting he conducted for us with his staff at Chili’s.

Doing anything that was void of meddling with city officials and business leaders in one of the poorest regions of America, The Rockford, requires successful leadership from Schaumburg area business professionals we discovered at the Chilis in The Rockford on E. State Street in 2012.

Lord Thomas’s Marketing Research Director, Jennifer Kowalski, told us, “If people don’t want their noose broken, tell them to hang in there, they’ll get it.” Lord Derby laughed, “Ha, ha, ha–that’s right!”

We laughed long and hard–that’s what she said–and so it began.

When the reality of being in The Rockford gets too heavy, we laugh and laugh and laugh until all of those civic pride ideas like “misery needs drunk and unemployed company,” and “our city your fault” or “transform the rockford feelings” are washed away along with the amateurs, scumbags and sales sluts. For that is the real, original and exceptional The Rockford that all of you have become comfortable with accepting. However, the truth is that most of you are like The Rockford amateurs mentioned above, you are amateur failures.

We decided that if you’re going to hang yourself and The Rockford on your own pride, tighten that noose good, but we will break it if you let us.

In closing, I leave you with a poem I wrote about The Rockford.

spitball“The city is a playground equipped with broken swing sets, surrounded by fields of weeds clinging onto dead grass that’s creeping in over old sand that used to be second base. The pitching mounds still stand waiting to be conquered by anyone willing to throw curve balls soaked in spit aimed at your fucking heads. Difference being, our balls don’t bend at the knees.” – by me, Chief Tchad Beale.

Keep your helmets on, ropes ready and chairs steady.
For I am not Chad, I am your Chief,

Tchad Beale
