: : : In the horse trader Barry Crytzer states he saw a website licensed to the armstrong school district with board president Terry Rupp as a contact person. Mr. Crytzer claims that there are many defamitory comments about himself , his business, political career, as well as comments about family live tv, David Wolfe, leader times and assorted other local people. This website would center around the BIG debate of ASD and Family Life Tv in regards to the " television station".
: : : I find myself to be well knowleged in searching the internet, however I have not located this " website" as Mr. Crytzer speaks of. Does anyone have any clue as to what this "website" address might be???
: : : I wonder if this is not a classic case of Barry Crytzer once again playing suck up to David Croyle. Could this be ass kissing ? or could it be the truth? I find it hard to beleive that our school district would find itself making defamitory comments on a website that is licensed by them.
: : : Who KNOWS?
: : This sounds like the ramblings of Terry Rupp.
: Some people, maybe the majority have a major problem with making the school district better. I am not going to state a television station, building new schools, and some of the other cost burden ideas are right. But then again, let's face the music. If we sit back in 1975, the world is going to pass us by like a fast moving freight train. There'll be no hope for a better job base, no reason to move people to this county, no chance in hell of anything blessing this county period. Look beyond your own little pathetic life and how miserable you have allowed yourself to become because of your own decisions. Not one damn soul forced you to move here or to stay here. There's a U-Haul waiting to move you. Oh, wait, food stamps can't rent you one.
: The whole point I wish to make is this. No industry comes flying into any county without a few things in place. These big corporate companies paying decent dollars looks at the school district, the training of the community, the ability of the people, healthcare, taxes, housing, activites, crime rates, water systems, waste removal, cost to transport manufactured goods, amoung a million other things before even one building is built and one job is made. Without a school district worth anything, without some of the area being capable of more than pushing shopping carts, without some of the area actually being productive citizens and getting jobs, without quality health care, without adequate housing ( way too many slum lords), etc. then this town rots into a non-existant ghost town.
: It's been said once or twice. Kittanning is a retirement community. I heard more than once that Kittanning is the place for welfare, child support skipping idiots, and people wishing to escape some of CYS's hounding them in other counties amoung many other things. I don't think I heard a thing about being the place for work even once. Why? Let's sum this one up. Too many people are too busy throwing 2 pennies in every issue when they really have no idea what effects are the truth and what effects are lies. Quit defending your little friends, quite being all political, quit trying to think for one second anyone with a television station is doing it for the "good" of the community, and quit rambling on about how this school district sucks. If no one believes in the basics of this community, it's going to die while you sit there making false statements about people you don't even know and about issues you only wish you know the real truth about.
: Ole' David Croyle is as mad as a hornet cause he can't make a penny off the school district. He's moaning about the school taking some of his cookies away. Yeah, it's business. Dad's Warehouse doesn't want to see a Home Depot built in his back yard no more than Mom's General Store wants to see Wal-Mart coming in. The facts are, it shouldn't be a this "Bill Gates" way of attempting to be the only kid in town who can have a television station. I have a right mind to call up the FCC and get a license to broadcast my own television station. Anyone wish to sponser "Saturday Night Live from Teaser's"? Any so called christian would wish to bring the best to the community weather they lose 1 dollar or 1 million...
Your rant sounds good but has little merit, corporations could care less about the things you stated, all they care about is how much money they can make and if it comes to a point they aren't making it, they are out of here or anywhere. You think for a moment a corporation has any loyalty to its employees or the community- if you do you are daft...
