I’m no fan of Meth Saver. That said, there is literally nothing that people who live around Elmwood Park (with the exception of me) would ever support. If anything gets changed, it’s a disaster to them. A developer could literally put in a business that did nothing but distribute free money and mac...

Ahh yes, the family oriented corporate dental chain office. Fun for all ages!

Asked for comment the cancer replied: "I didn't do it, but if I did, I would tell you exactly how."

The existing stores might get the Casey's treatment too where they'll remodel some sites and turn them into Cadillacs, and the others will just get new signage and otherwise be left to disintegrate.

A lot of places where I live now still have older equipment.

Paying with an app is handy at places that don't have tap to pay readers yet since magstripes that can be skimmed are still a thing.

If you're an asthmatic and have been taking a break from your controller medication over the winter, it'll be a good idea to start back up on it.

I've had good luck with T-Mobile, but I have an unobstructed line of sight to the tower. I average around 200 megabits down, sometimes 300 on stuff I use Ethernet on.

Unless people are downloading files, they don't need a lot of the bandwidth they're paying for.

The surprise new card might be the bank pushing out ones with tap to pay. See if there's a WiFi looking symbol on the new card compared to the old one. If people have a credit card they can pay in full every month, a smart thing to do is to use it for everything. That way if the card is compromised,...

While on the topic of regional chains, I’m convinced that Amigo’s is the McDowell’s of Taco Time on the West coast.

Taqueria Tijuana on 24th and Q is pretty good too.

I preferred Bueno over the other chains. I guess opening the first store in an area where you couldn't throw a dead cat without hitting a restaurant, and the other one way the heck up North by Immanuel probably weren't good locations for success.

The landlord will probably succeed in evicting them, but I'm going to laugh at all this NIMBY nonsense until the very end.

The Pac N Save in Seward has had an ACE Hardware on the South part of the store ever since I've been out here. You walk past it to get to the coolers in the SW corner, or the pharmacy, but outside of that, you don't really notice the place.

I was with CVS for years because my company insurance is with Aetna and I thought there'd be synergies due to CVS's ownership. I soon tired of the relentless emails/texts that could not be permanently turned off, not to mention their insistence on auto-filling my scrips. My company is changing insu...

I switched to an indie pharmacy from Walgreens last year. The hours kind of stink with my work schedule, but the service is always super quick and helpful. Not waiting in line because the tech had to get a gallon of milk for someone in drive-thru is a plus.

Why was the other location even in the running? They already own this 'new' property and it's away from everyone and everything.

According to the state, that landfill site was the primary, but Lincoln said no. Only after backlash about the initial selection did the city negotiate a deal.

After negotiations, they are moving the site next to the city landfill on 70th St near the 56th Street exit.

This popped up on social media about a year ago. There's usually two sides to every workplace dispute, but if this is authentic, the owner seems like the type people really want to work for.

Sapp Bros keeps trying new concepts, at least in York. The last one was a fried chicken joint. They do sell lunch sized portions for $3 less. I'll have to try the place at some point.

Newer fuel dispensers typically have tap to pay readers, so Apple/Samsung/Google Pay will usually work. Due to the encryption involved in authorizing tap to pay transactions, it's as secure as EMV. Once mag stripes finally go away, it will be very difficult to skim cards except for maybe taking a pi...

I remember once fueling up at the Kwik Shop across the street from the now closed LJS on 48th and L St about a decade ago. The smell of that place running at maximum output during Lent mixed with the stagnant aroma of the meat packing plants down the road was.....interesting.

It pains me to say this but I think that even the shell that is left of the old Omaha World-Herald will cease to exist as a print media platform before the end of this decade. I bet it is sooner than the end of the decade Unpaid intern generating stories via ChatGPT from their high school classroom.

More likely the shortage of pharmacists is a big part of the problem Not to change the subject, but the medical marijuana bill currently in the legislature has a stipulation that any dispensery would have to have a pharmacist. How are they planning to accomplish this when there already is a shortag...

A Sierra Club PowerPoint slide I found says the landfill is projected to reach capacity by 2137.

I switched to an independent place last fall, and have been very happy so far. The hours kinda stink considering my work schedule, but my copays are the same, and they also have an app to order refills. I really enjoy no longer being stuck in line behind someone screaming at the pharmacy staff, or w...

Thread revival time. Omaha Police is reportedly going full encryption by the end of the month. I don't know about fire, or the county channels. They would give the four TV stations and "one newspaper" (wonder who that would be?) access to real time audio. Sarpy encrypted dispatch channels ...

That one was further east and is now a used car lot. This is the old Fantasy's.

I know which station you're talking about now. It was a Bucky's until I moved in 2014. I just got that intersection and 132/Harry Andersen mixed up.

Considering that site's past, I guess that you could say that the terrorist's won.

$30 a month for online only? That's absurd given the lack of content they produce anymore. I've been on the fence about canceling but that's going to push me to the "cancel" side of the ledger. Curious, did the email cancel option work? Or is the "call and wait on hold for someone&qu...

I just got a renewal notice. Regular online-only subscription prices are going up 40% to $356 a year.
