Ah yes. Arguably, my favorite time of the year is coming in less than 3 weeks on March 22nd.. What will the new 2018 US Census population estimates be for the Omaha CSA and MSA?.. In review, Omaha’s 2017 MSA estimate clocked in at 933,316 with the CSA 2017 estimate at 970,023.. Omaha is closing in o...

One other establishment I wish Omaha still had, was the Antiquarium Bookstore downtown .. I miss the record store downstairs..and their resident tabby cat roaming the aisles...

I’ve been sitting on this thread since Coyote started it.. I wish Omaha still had a couple of things already mentioned- Indian Hills Theater and Peony Park.. From a restaurant standpoint, I also wish Omaha still had Chu’s Chop Suey House and the Original Caniglia’s on 7th street (heck, I wish we sti...

Did anyone else have a heart attack or several? What an amazing win, and now we need to close out the final two. Then...March is within reach. I really hope this is the sign that they've turned a corner. Their defense is toughening up, and they aren't wilting. Just keep building. Martin Krampelj wa...

H E L L Yes!!!!.. Finally! Mental toughness..on the road, against a top 12 ranked team.. Did the Jays force turnovers? Sure did..and scored 18 points off of Marquette turnovers alone. Great GREAT win. Nice coaching job by Mac and the staff.. Now let’s build some momentum and take this home :thumb: ....

Out of the 100 largest metro areas, Omaha ranks toward the bottom (83rd) in the rate of movement between metro areas So, if I read this correctly, any gains from the 101+ largest metros, or another country would not count ? More OWH nonsense ? I can't see the article yet because of paywall, but it'...

As a side note, in your opinion, how “worried” should we be that OMA could lose Air Canada service..I know we’re likely still in the Honeymoon phase with them.. But what’s your current level of concern?... Pretty high. The loads aren't where they need to be for this to work. Even if we lose it, it ...

You’re welcome..

I’m glad the show spent a significant segment talking about the Oakview Mall and it’s surrounding Mousetrap..

Jim Sadler's Oakview opinion was quite informative and I’m glad to share some of that narrative here...

Jim Sadler, general manager of Westroads Mall was guest host with Trenton Magid on the Grow Omaha radio show this morning on KFAB.. They had an interesting discussion about retail in the Omaha area..

So....KETV losing three people. One producer and two on-air personalities, Erin and Taylor. Hate to see the good ones go :( I figured when KETV hired Erin H, She’d hang around for a couple years in Omaha before moving on.. She’s a vagabond and doesn’t stick around a job for longer than a couple of ...

They need to make it through this season first. I agree.. But so much for the idea that the AAF wouldn’t work (or be in consideration to expand) in the Midwest.. Like into Omaha :;): ...

Wow, for a new development that's surprisingly bad access from West Dodge Road and northbound 168th. From westbound West Dodge Rd. you'd have to go to 180th and and double back east on Burt St. to get to Baxter. Or approach southbound from 168th & Blondo or Maple (Hwy 64). But good access all c...

I still have yet to try this place..

Honestly from what I’ve been told, the cost ratio compared to what you actually get just doesn’t seem worth it to me..Hence why I haven’t been in any hurry eat there..

Never say never though...

Even if we lose it, it would have been a great learning experience for the airport executives regarding international service.

Assuming it does happen, that is certainly one valid way of looking at it...

Well, I can recall times in Omaha I got a whiff of spring in late, late Feb -- or by March 1st. So, you just never know. I understand this.
