He is risen
Today is Friday in the Octave of Easter. Hallelujah! Christ is risen. Indeed He is risen. Let us draw near to God and He will draw near to us.
Quit complaining
This is in answer to the person who keeps complaining about the new owner of the breaker in Atlas. Where were all these complaints when the previous owner left all the mess there? This man has invested thousands of dollars of his own money to clean up this place. Be glad that somebody is putting a business into operation and don't keep complaining about such nonsense.
More tax breaks
So the Republicans' answer to our budget crisis is end Medicare as we know it, slash college grants, and give Exxon Mobil and the wealthy more tax breaks! No joke - that's the plan! Thank you, Tom Marino and Lou Barletta, for voting for your base, the wealthy, and voting against the working class.
Support your teams
I would like to see more Kulpmont residents come up and watch the two Kulpmont baseball teams play. Come out and support the kids, you will see some exciting baseball played by your local teams.
Bus blues
This is a about the bus driver, Joe, who decorates the bus for holidays. I would like to know how he gets away with driving for CSIU when the Mount Carmel Center was told that nobody in the classroom could have anything to do with holidays, they couldn't decorate, they couldn't have festivals or they couldn't even mention holidays. You would think that maybe it should be the same rules for every center.
Pay the man
How much more of the taxpayers' money is the Shamokin Area School Board going to waste appealing that Weaver case? This is ridiculous! They are paying an outside firm thousands of dollars. They lost the case, just pay the man and move on.
What a mistake
I only have two things I regret doing in my whole life. The first one was getting married for love instead of money. Now I am broke and divorced. The second thing was I voted for Vinny. What a mistake.
National oil
All the natural resources in this country belong to the people. How come the oil companies are getting rich and the people aren't? It is time to nationalize the oil companies.
No problem
This is in response to "More money." I would be happy to pay 80 percent more in taxes. I have a real job. I have an education. Hey, if means getting this area cleaned up I have no problem with it.
Darn shame
It is a shame that people are putting in the newspaper about that bus driver that has Easter bunnies in his bus or how he decorates for the little children. I think he is an outstanding bus driver. I think the Shamokin Police should do a better job of getting out there on Sunbury Street and getting these people who don't know how to stop for a yellow flashing light or a red flashing light for a bus. That means you are supposed to stop. One of these days a child is going to get hit on Sunbury Street.
