I guess everyone has their own opinion. Many in this city, including myself, put La Casa's at the top of their list of favorite pizza.

Stargazer

Who has jurisdiction over this area? Â No nearby residents... this has the potential to be the ugliest looking Walmart in the metro.

Stargazer

I posted this news on the DSM forum's airport news thread, where there was ongoing discussion mentioning Eppley ... and they censored it.

Stargazer

Funny... I thought Star Cinema was kind of a dump.

ExpressJet to offer nonstop West Coast trips http://www.omaha.com/index.php?u_page=1208&u_sid=2322658 Omaha soon will have nonstop flights to California for the first time since 2001. Although new brand ExpressJet hasn't announced its full schedule, two new destinations seem likely for Eppley, b...

Stargazer

As much as it upsets some of us... I could certainly see (and have seen) some folks from larger cities... lumping Omaha and Lincoln into the same 'category' of city.

Stargazer

My point exactly.

Stargazer

I'm still expecting it will be 2020, if not beyond. Remember, a fair amount of the boost we've received to '850,000'... is resulting from the addition of more counties (including Fremont). And unfortunately, those counties aren't going to be contributing much towards that 1 million mark. It's goi...

Stargazer

While he's probably not thinking about Danny Nee specifically ... I'm sure coach is thinking about the same thing. Â We'll give Sadler at least a couple of years.

Stargazer

Okay, we'll just forget about tonight... on to Missouri.

On a positive note... the NU women are up to a #22 ranking.

Stargazer

Yeah, my source has Alegent acquiring the Mayo Clinic. They're moving the entire operation to Omaha, downtown into a 50 story tower to be called... the Medical Arts Center.

With KU coming to the Devaney, Nebraska has nothing to lose... and everything to gain in the national spotlight. The Nebraska men's basketball team makes a quick turnaround as it plays host to nationally ranked Kansas at the Bob Devaney Sports Center on Monday, Jan. 29, just two days after its last ...

The other great part for the height obsessed, TWO skylines!

Make that... three skylines.

Stargazer

Ah yes... Erik... glad to make the association!

Stargazer

I guess that's one way to do it... personally, I'd rather have another choice (actually, I like Dillard's)... than just have the 'privilege' of having it renamed to Macy's.

Stargazer

Yeah, I noticed I could see the traffic on 480 much more easily on the CB side, through the trees, the other night.

Stargazer

I'm going to paint this a little differently here (as many of you have come to expect, for better or for worse). Thanks to the Old Market, we DO have far more 'downtown' activity on average, than downtown Lincoln. However, I would suggest... that there is more 'apparent' activity spread THROUGHOUT d...

You'll recall he was at the Holland Center just over a year ago or so.

Stargazer

Hey! Â That's great news!

Stargazer

Well then, the solution is simple. Shut down Husker Harvest Days. :;): Seriously, we just need to invest some more money into the event in Lincoln. Give it some bigger name acts, renovate the fair grounds (or let Lincoln find another location) and buildings, add a bigger midway... market it, an...

I like the name 'Playland Park'... and it does hold alot of history.

I say the name stays.

Stargazer

I wonder if Mid America has plans to lengthen their 1/8 mile track. Â That is such a great facility down there... maybe Newton, IA has a big new NASCAR track, but MAM is the common man's race course... where we can ALL race. :) I always loved drag racing when I was young. Â Better on the track...tha...

Stargazer

Yeah, and I think it's arguments like these, which leave one with the recognition that the older sibling is being really immature.

Stargazer

Wow, I'm amazed Aaron... that you have ANY interest in seeing Omaha hosting the state fair at all. Personally, I think it should stay in Lincoln... which seems to be a good compromise between the 'weight' of the population in eastern Nebraska... and the 'weight' of fair participants in central and w...

Stargazer

Well, crushed by Chicago, 5-nil (they're very good you know... alot of 'minor league' experience)... but another 5,000+ attendance... all while the UNO game was going on.

Stargazer

Wow... that's some pretty impressive company there.

Nice pub.

Stargazer

I'll bet he'll miss our weather though.

Stargazer

Thank you.

Stargazer

I only 'discovered' downtown Bennington a couple of years ago... it's a nice little business district, some good architecture.

Stargazer

Larry?? is that you??

EDIT: Â So I'm to understand he has requested that his post be removed? Â I guess you might as well remove mine to then.

Stargazer

Knights win their 7th straight... another shootout victory, 4-3 over Milwaukee.

Stargazer

What a tough loss for the Huskers... they stayed with the Longhorns right up to the end... Jamel White's last second shot just missing.

And the NU women lost by 1 at top 25 ranked A&M as well.

Stargazer

Gee whiz... Creighton needs a nice relaxing blowout one of these nights... these nail biters are driving me nuts. Â It really looked like MSU had the inside track to a win, until they lost the ball out of bounds.

Stargazer

The only thing legendary here is, Mike's hatred of the Knights.

Stargazer

The Bombers? Â Sounds like a women's roller derby team or something. I liked the 'Spikes' (drop the 'Golden')... or at least having SOME original name, differentiating us from KC. Â With the exception of Iowa... I think Omaha is about the only minor league club which has opted to retain the parent ...

Carol seems like a natural... Carlo... not so much.
