The Mayor will be on the "Big Show With Matt Perrault" at 3:15 on the Mighty Big Sports 590 to talk about today's new stadium proposal.

Wait a MIN!!!!!!

There is no possible way that the ballpark would have the skyline in the outfield if they build it on the qwest lot???? Â Stadiums can NOT face southwest!

Downtown ballpark would be near Qwest http://www.omaha.com/index.php?u_page=2798&u_sid=10118116 Dennis Poppe, NCAA senior director for baseball and football, said the proposal puts the downtown stadium north of the Qwest Center Omaha. He said it would have 25,000 to 30,000 seats, though it is s...

I know I need to get home fast this afternoon, I left my VW sitting out in the driveway today, don't want to get hail on that classic.

While you were getting the lightening to the east look at what the Extreme Instability Guy got to the west:

All of his AMAZING 2007 pictures thus far:

72nd and Grant street (2 blocks north of Blondo) there is a Jamaican Restaurant. Â Its on the North West corner in a strip mall.

Never heard of it either, and now i know why.... Its like Urban Outfitter, some clothing store I would never go to:

I was standing down there for a few min? Â I had my camera round my neck and my camera bag is a black backpack.

I missed about 150 laps of the greatest NASCAR race of the season (The Bristol Night Race!) and run down and snap this picture real quick. The picture at full size is about 100 inches wide so this little one is not the clearest. Smaller crowd than I thought: http://www.bradwilliamsphotography.com/im...

I don't know the "Tom Osbern Expressway is out there......"

That and I am sure there are people in Lincoln that like Earth Wind and Fire or whoever played this weekend. Â Can you imagine heading up to Omaha on the train, Drinking on the Market, catching a show, then heading back down there without worrying about driving!

The land is for sale. That should end any rumor as to what is going in there. Two things. Â One if it was just for sale they would not have demolished the entire building just removed that tanks. Â you see old gas station shells all over town with a messed up parking lot where the tanks use to be....

Nice.

Now I know why on Sundays when I go take my Ped bridge Update pics for my client, the whole place is TRASHED down there!

Sewer meeting overflows: 200 pack cafeteria http://www.omaha.com/index.php?u_page=2798&u_sid=10115150 It's not every day that a public meeting on the city's sewer system draws an overflow crowd. But that was the case Thursday night. About 200 people packed the cafeteria at the Omaha Public Scho...

I don't think Swift ever proposed the husker express, he is just saying that is one of the ways you could market the train to help increase ridership. Good point Capitalguy. Â I know people that commute every day also. Â I also know a lot of people that run down to Lincoln for meetings all the time....

Whats the cost per mile? I am guessing we are going to need about 70 Miles? (it's 61.2 by road) Since we are avoiding roads, it would be a more direct line, I'd guess it would probably be less than 61 miles. But you just can't go blazing through Omaha with a bulldozer, you will have to go around s...

OOPS! Paxton units see water damage http://www.omaha.com/index.php?u_page=1208&u_sid=10113871 A pipe in a construction area at the Paxton condominiums dislodged Tuesday, flooding an unfinished ninth-floor unit, damaging several finished units, displacing four residents and closing a ground-floo...

I know I forgot the wink.

Â However anything at that speed would not be able to have crossings they would have to build viaducts at every crossing, which would really cost a lot of money.

That is well thought, but you are talking about something that runs 120+ MPH. Â You want to build a maglev or somehting?

Its a good idea, BUT..... You know how much that would cost! The best part about UNL to Omaha is that there are already existing tracks that run Directly from The Haymarket/UNL to the Burlington station. Â Those tracks go through Lincoln, Waverly, Greenwood, Ashland, Gretna, Chalico, Ralston, Omaha!...

Page 2 of this thread, it was in the OWH.

I have spent a little bit of time looking at Franchise opportunities and can say it looks REAL daunting. Spend 50-100k just for the right to restaurant. Next, add in low six figures to get the place opened. Then look at a ton of advertising (some places require up to $5,000 a month to be spent o...

Rodgers development owns everything south of Hascall, Spring Ventures owns everything to the north.

Thanks for that info Dreamer. Where is the "Across the Street"? Mangelson's, Good Will, Flashbacks, etc... I talked to a person that is very close to the situation tonight. Â I guess the Mangelson's plaza is for sale. Â There was a deal in place that fell through, but I guess deal number ...

I am looking forward to some interesting arguments.
