sorry, sorry...I turned it off now.

I visited Sand Hills GC back when it was under construction. Â My father has played it, and a neighbor is a member. It is truly a treasure. Â The Nicklaus club sounds like it may end up being a little bit hack in comparison, but should end up being world-class as well. The Sand Hills are ideal for g...

While I haven't seen the poll, I read the article that I assume it refers to (covering the impending annexation of Elkhorn), and perhaps the poll was referring to the amount of land area that the city covers. Â Not the overall population of the city. If that is the case, I would say that likely yes,...

the absolutedsm one is probably pretty close to the Aqua theme (just a little darker) that MTO had suggested earlier. I like it too.

It took a month for this???? And I still can't turn off sig files? It took a month to transfer a very large database to an off site host and upgrade to phpBB 2.0.21, and then resolve the bugs. I will add to the upgrade list the Mod "Per-User Avatar/Sig Disable" I have a few more Mods to a...

EVERY city has a warehouse district, fancy restaurants, tall skyscrapers, zoos, baseball stadiums, museums, parks, performing arts centers, and so on. NOT EVERY city has Boys Town. This is what makes Omaha unique and worth visiting. A city that can display the type of compassion and heart as evidenc...

It's a step back, because from DIA, practically everywhere in the US is a direct flight. (One connection)

From Omaha, you're gonna have to connect again unless your destination is a hub city like Chicago, Dallas, or Denver. Same thing for flying out of MCI. (Two or more connections, usually)

Yes, picture 11 is from the top of the tower. Which, by the way is a fantastic make-out spot...I speak here from experience! :) My favorite picture is the one of the milky way galaxy...visible with the naked eye on most any clear night out there. City dwellers often don't understand how amazing sta...

WEP can be cracked pretty easily. How so? Just an example: http://www.tomsnetworking.com/2005/05/10/how_to_crack_wep_/ There are tools readily available to allow WEP passcode cracking (ie AirCrack). WPA and WPA2 are much more secure. That's exactly why I only use WPA2 + MAC filtering. Not only is W...

Fantastic series. I particularly liked the Hobart pictures! Thanks for those.

Interesting sidenote -- something like 85% or more of the Australian population lives in a major urban area.

They're reverting back to the original name

Mainstreet Theatre.

In about a year from now, that whole area will be a sight to see for sure!

it's gonna start to look like Arrowhead stadium. I guess that's the way it was designed

It's kind of funny you said that.

This one is from my PowerBook G4.

Oh, and by the way, the message board time is way outta whack!

It is now 4:26 PM CDT, yet I'm guessing the time listed for this post will be around 2:15.

Well that's an interesting catch I have never heard of. It sure sucks for Hawkins but they would know better then us if it would ever happen and they truly seam to be trying to get a bonus. To be fair, they've had very fortunate luck with the mild winter weather and the relatively dry spring and su...

Odd how this thread has been so quiet lately...

Anybody know anything new?

Just like about everything else, the fireworks in Kansas City around 4th of July weekend are almost identical to Omaha, only on a larger scale.

Nebraska is fortunate in that it gets lots of spectacular sunsets!

Since the climate is so much drier in Denver, the possibility of starting fires and the danger of those fires getting wildly out of control is quite a bit higher than in Omaha. I suppose that has a big effect on people.

The NFL does support KC as a franchise. When the stadium referendums came up down there, the NFL promised a Super Bowl if KC passed the rolling roof portion. Greg Yeah, that probably has much more to do with cronyism and the good ole boy network (NFL commissioner throwing Lamar a bone) than the NFL...

I've been trying to work out just exactly where that was taken...

114th and Maple, right?

I thought the same thing when I saw the article this morning.

I used to live in the upside-down L shaped building just to the immediate west of that block. A SOMA type development would totally change the fabric of that neighborhood, probably for the better. But I can see how the homeowners nearby and ON that block could be upset. It's always been a pretty nic...

Not many people outside of Iowa even know what 6 on 6 basketball is much less the rules!

Excellent point. Reading blogs has become much more important than reading *most* newspaper columnists these days.

I kind of liked her column.

She pandered to her readership a little bit, same thing that Shatel does...but I suppose that's a necessary evil at the OWH. I enjoyed her writing more when she was in college and wrote for the Daily Nebraskan...IMO, that was really her best stuff.

Pretty nice write up.

Should have mentioned comparative real estate prices...a $150,000 house in Omaha could sell for a million or more in parts of LA and Orange Counties.

Heh!

It's funny how even a pile of rubble is an improvement!

At least copy and paste a few parts of the article. I'd like to read it as well, but I'm not about to register for *another* out of town paper.

Golden Eagle. It's not really the criticsm of Omaha that has raised the ire of me and maybe a couple of other posters here, but the delivery of your message. Some of your comments, as I have pointed out, are really unnecessary and frankly come across as very condescending. Here's a tip: Leave out th...
