After spending an hour and half with Mr. Swafford, here is how I understood our plan with the airport. Build it and they will come. I am dead serious. Don't let pubby's bullcheeze sway you, he knows what he saying is half truths and not the whole truth. NO ONE, WITH PROPER EXPERIENCE, HAS EVERY TRIED TO SELL OUR AIRPORT TO BUSINESSES! Blake said that Jamie Gilbert was the "salesperson" until Jamie quit, then Blake said that he became the sales person. That is exactly what Blake said to me. Do what I did, meet with Blake and ask him. As far as citizens seeing the p

So you are calling Blake Swafford a lier? Nice. Pat, you are a sick sick man. Get help.

You are missing the point, there is no business plan for the airport. Blake Swafford told me that himself. As far as a private citizen seeing the plan, let's leave out the fact that there is no plan to see and let me say that I never asked to see the plan, I just asked how we were doing on our goals over the past 7 (or whatever) years. I guess we are on track, since we have no goals to reach. But, I do think every citizen has a right to see the business plan for a business that they are part owners of. Once again, that point is mute, because there is no business plan and never has been

First, I am by no means an expert in business, but having been employed by businesses and having for the past 25 yrs been assigned a territory to sell (or grow) business for the companies I have worked for, I know a few things. Any successful, or for that matter a failing business, needs a business plan. Simply speaking, it is a list of goals that you hope to meet for your business. What you hope to have accomplished within 6 months, a year, 2 years, 5 years, 10 years, whatever the time frame is. Along with a plan on how you intend to accomplish those goals. Take my business, sal

Not sure is that was directed at me or the people on the commission. Let's take the commissioners first. Nope, no one is really taking the "higher ground" in our local government. I guess depending on who you support, you could find a lot of fault with either side. I do not believe that this group of people will ever be able to work together. I don't know if all the nasty stuff (on both sides, apparently) is coming from the people in charge themselves or from people who think they are helping "their guy". But all the lies, half truths taken out of context, and twisted truths, have don

We have never hired qualified people to sell the businesses we have built, neither at the airport or the movie studio. Not one person. You have to sell your product and that requires qualified people who know the industry and have contacts within that industry. We have no one, and never have had anyone who meets these qualifications, working either to make the airport or the movie studio successful. No wonder they are losing money. I'm not against either project, but you cannot open a business and expect people to just come to you. That is unless you have the only business of that type

I'm disgusted also, but mainly with someone who won't even go to the BOC meetings, simple because they have to go in the same way as the regular folks. How dare they treat him like everyone else? Don't they know who he is? A few thoughts about the meeting. Do I understand this correctly? Our IBA and some of the commissioners are saying that if they do not have confidence in the leaders of the county, they don't have to pay their bills? If so, HALLELUJAH!!!! I don't have a heck of a lot of confidence in our county leaders, so I plan on following our IBA's lead and not pay my

Hey Mike, you ready to meet yet?

And the reason I don't try and post here, is once again made clear. I thanked a police officer who gave me a ticket. He was courteous, professional and I was breaking the law. I thanked him for his service and for being a professional. Just close the post, it doesn't fit the agenda. My bad for trying to bring some sunshine into a dark hole.

Really?? I would say that when it comes to certain people you sure as hell don't mind the innuendo. I seem to remember just a few weeks ago you mentioned that a certain person "could be involved" in a criminal act. I guess that doesn't count in your warped world.

"Heavy alcohol drinking is another big cause. Damage to the pancreas from heavy alcohol use may not cause symptoms for many years, but then the person may suddenly develop severe pancreatitis symptoms."

Whizz off you crazy old coot. No one, including your family, cares what you have to say.

Pulled this off the wife's FB. Interesting poem and an interesting response by FB. You can find the rest of the story at her FB page, https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100008784633974 My name is Raine Bivens. I am a police supporter. The recent post I posted regarding "You pulled me over today" went viral off of my main profile page with 150k+ shares. Unfortunately Facebook has removed my profile and is reviewing my ID card to see if I am fake or not. Officer, you pulled me over today. Not to be mean, or because of a "quota" Not because my car is old, Not because I'm young an

I asked to have 3 of my threads closed after politely asking TP to not post his off the wall and not relevant trash. In ever case TP accused me of trying to censor him and basically telling me to F off. So I just had the threads closed. I realize he has severe emotional and most likely mental issues and I don't think he has a life outside of pcom, but he feels he can do or say anything with the backing of the owner.

I never abscribed any identity to that poster. Not one time. I used a first name, one as I noted is very common throughout this country. Funny that you think it belongs to a specific person. I also called them a peckerhead, I guess I can expect a lawsuit from a redheaded peckerwood (also known as a woodpecker). As far as you getting a subpoena for my identity and not fighting it, don't worry about it. If you were able to read and comprehend, you would note that your buddy Toxic has not only determined who I am, but what I do for a living. Funny, didn't Mike Jones ask you what my real

Let me see if I got this right. I pick a forename to call someone, a normal name, one given to many many people, two of my cousins in fact, I use no last names, I imply nothing to indicate that I am referring to any particular person and you say, don't do that. This other person not only mentions people's names, but they give out personal information, information that may or may not be true, be half true or slanted and that you said was OK. This person also calls someone, in a post, a turd, referring to their given name and like Mike Jones did in his email, accuses him of trying to ex

I have no problem with anything I've ever said about you. You have no respect for yourself or others, so why should I have more respect for you than you do? Like I was told, you were a peckerhead in high school and you are a peckerhead today. You really need to see someone about your obsession with Todd and for that matter, me. You went to a lot of trouble to find out who I am, did you run a background check on me? No need. Just meet me in person and ask your questions, I'm a man, I'll answer them. Ohhhhhhhhh, I forgot, your a hide and stab in the back kind of Mike. Again, you ar

Toxic Really?? You have to go and dig up a dead thread to spew your hatred and venom against Todd in? You are a sad little man. (and I use the word man, very loosely)

Fair enough. You said it, and you owned it. Fair enough.

Sue away. I don't lie. I will give you the benefit of the doubt and say that perhaps you forgot, but you told me that Toxic was banned from posting in a thread, but that they were still able to send PMs. That is exactly what you told me. I don't know that it is David Austin pulling your strings, but you are someone's puppet. Sad, after all, it is little ole Paulding county, not even a major county or a state or the Federal government. You would think a person would want their puppet master to at least be someone who is known more than 50 miles from their home.

Still waiting to meet you in person, you scummy piece of sheeze. Funny, pubby told me you were banned from posting. Guess he received new orders.

You laugh at the fact that he is forced out of a job and you write a (according to you, 27 pages) report defending one of the people that helped force him from his job, yet now you worry about what you think are his wishes. Let me tell you what he told me were his wishes, that you had been honest in those 27 pages about what happened. You have admitted here in this thread that you believe county officials put pressure on Jamie's employer to control Jamie's personal life, yet if you read those 27 pages, you say it never happened. Hell, even now when you admit that you believe that county

You have reached the point of being so absurd as to be worthless to try and communicate with. Similar to another that posts here. Goodbye.

God...you make my stomach turn with your stupidity or your willingness to lie. DO YOU NOT KNOW THE FREAKING DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A PRIVATE INDIVIDUAL DOING A SEARCH AND A COUNTY OFFICIAL? ARE YOU THAT FREAKING OBTUSE?? Glassdogs was correct. It is like trying to talk to jellyfish. My bad for even logging in. But I think people should know what was done and who is ok with it being done.
