It is relatively simple business product marketing 101. If your product or services is desirable the buying public will support your efforts. Insanity is defined by Albert Einstein: "Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results". Randy needs to talk to a majority of his potential buying targets and I will bet a good percentage of those folks will tell him his product is STALE. Having an out of town Hickory County, MO based Bible thumping Bob Phillips shoving his political and religious agenda down "Raytown" throats for years on end is killing his paper!! We want to read a Raytown paper for RAYTOWN INFORMATION. Plain & Simple! Joe Creamer's weekly rants have long passed the Letter to The Editor definition and is now just a weekly columnist. Randy that guy is KILLING your paper!! So as he examines his future direction of his paper and your sad pleas to Raytown people to support your publication, I would give him an an honest opinion. He NEEDS to know that he has some CANCERS disguising themselves as journalists that are adding NOTHING to information Raytown people desire and more importantly to SUPPORTING his livelihood. I wish Randy all the best in 2017 in his efforts to provide Raytown people a viable news outlet and hope these strong words of interjection are viewed by him as an opportunity to examine his business profile and product as sustainable and maybe a time to change up the INSANITY....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3767127531333372490.post-17766113422181681272017-01-05T19:31:13.899-06:002017-01-05T19:31:13.899-06:00Our public works dept. has been doing a fine job f...Our public works dept. has been doing a fine job for several years with plowing the streets.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3767127531333372490.post-58520461751161300982017-01-05T09:16:55.615-06:002017-01-05T09:16:55.615-06:00Many thanks to the public works department for cle...Many thanks to the public works department for clearing our streets so fast.

Raytown is only ten square miles with a population around 30,000. If you are going to compare crime stats with other communities, you best take into consideration the population, etc. Truth is crime is up everywhere. The police seem to be powerless to stop it. I wonder, did anybody else here any gunfire on New Year's Eve? Those were not all fire works and balloons popping. I wonder how many of the idiots firing guns into the air were apprehended by the Raytown PD?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3767127531333372490.post-40265321794459957122017-01-04T18:14:55.120-06:002017-01-04T18:14:55.120-06:00Is the list of people running for office in Raytow...Is the list of people running for office in Raytown on the city's web page up to date?

He has never gone public with where he was living for almost two years of his last term in office. It is pretty clear that it was not in the area he represented. It hurt his credibility deeply. I think his defeat at the polls was a direct result of his residency issues. Maybe he will write about it in the Raytown Times. Even if he were to write about it I do not know if I would believe his story.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3767127531333372490.post-41458187709275463032017-01-02T08:42:50.058-06:002017-01-02T08:42:50.058-06:00Joe Creamer wore out his "special circumstanc...Joe Creamer wore out his "special circumstance" card a long time ago. He created his own issues in his personal life including those that lead to him having to leave his house, divorce, and eventually out of his required Ward. Why he did not resign with his admitted substance abuse issues mounting as well as his non conforming residency absolutely showed a lack of respect to his constituents and their show of votes to Karen Black leaving Creamer a distant 3rd spoke loud and clear.

From the street, they are often too hard too read. One might see the time and date, but what it is about is often too hard to see, unless you get out and walk up to it and read it. There should be a way (perhaps there is) that it can be looked up (like on the internet) for more details. On the other hand, perhaps they may not always want that either.
