Re: New building on 72nd and State

Awesome. I hope this means they will make a 2nd lane for Southbound 72nd when coming off of the interstate. Currently people just drive onto the shoulder to turn right when there is cars backed up waiting to turn left.

It was this Summer; June I believe. The guy who was running the place got a job down in Kansas City doing play calling for the Royals Spanish radio.

New restaurant "Soco Cafe" formally Club Mex

I live right near the old location of Club Mex on North 93rd just North of Maple and ran into a guy behind the building doing some grilling. Talked to him and he showed me the inside of the place. They say it's going to be Cajun/BBQ type food. The owner is from Arkansas so it should be pretty good. ...

Ron Howard in Omaha?

Saw Ron Howard downtown eating at Ahmad's today. Didn't want to disturb his meal so I stayed my distance. Plus I was working so I couldn't spend too much time out there.

Anybody get any photos or autographs?

Well, we had some land assessors out at Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge. We are all thinking we're the next store to go. We asked the GM and he said they were just doing it to re-finance. Odd considering that's what happened at Ford and Mercedes.  We're all thinking it's time to start looking for a new job.

Actually I think they are just going to close the Ford store. The Mercedes store will, of course, stay open and be operated by Performance. All of the vehicles at the Ford store are going to auction. They wouldn't even let us at the CJD store buy any of them. Only customers can. Kind of sucks consid...

I think Dundee is the best theater. Where else shows midnight movies? I know Great Escape did for a month, and my friends and I were the only ones that were at any of the movies. If I am not seeing a midnighter at Dundee I am at Great Escape or Star Cinema.

Lithia Ford Set to Close dealership on Dec. 16

I work at Lithia Chrysler Jeep Dodge and we just found out the Ford store and Mercedes store are closing. Performance is buying Mercedes and Lithia wouldn't sell it to them without Ford. As far as we know, our CJD store is staying open.

Feel free to ask any questions about Trini's and/or Butsy LeDoux's. I worked there for almost 3 years until they closed Butsy's and wanted everybody to move to Trini's. That would have meant that there would be 5 cooks and about 15 servers/hosts combined.
