Most of the private trash haulers are probably going to be pretty competitive.

I signed up with Premier Waste Solutions last month and they've been good so far. They sold me on their deal where if I prepaid for 2 months, I got 2 months free.

They should centralize production and maybe franchise out the retail side. Let someone else deal with all the BS retail overhead.

I like how that guy they interviewed kept blaming his commute problems on the lowered speed limit on W. Maple. Negating the stoplights, considering the distances involved on that stretch of road, the 10mph reduction doesn't increase transit times that much.

Yup...96.1 The Brew is now something called 96.1 KISS-FM and seems to be a copy of 94.1 and 106.9.   I was shocked today. Omaha does not need another version of 106.9 and 94.1. 96.1 The Brew was the perfect in-between for 105.9 (too much old-fogey classic rock) and Z-92 (too modern/hard rock and Oz...

Apps like Waze and Google Maps are probably more reliable for traffic reports. Sometimes I wonder if people call in fake traffic wrecks or slowdowns to get others to avoid the area so that person can have a faster commute.
