Re: Fortune 500 List

Omaha has 4, including the 11th largest company, yet we have 2/5ths the population.  http://money.cnn.com/magazines/fortune/ ... es/NE.html

We also have the richest man in the world.

You need to clean up that place if you want to urbanize it.

Re: Computer People - Hard Drive Crashed

I'm not sure if it would work for this instance, but many people fix their hard drives by putting them in the freezer and then running them cold. http://www.lockergnome.com/blade/2006/12/02/dead-hard-disk-try-putting-it-in-the-freezer/ Edit:  Oh darn you fixed it.  Put it in the freezer anyway, for ...

Re: Ron Paul a Presidential Freight Train

The only thing that was derailed by Ron Paul not winning the election was America.

Now I have to figure out who to change my avatar to.  Probably back to John Stossel.  Give me a break!

Chicago is America's finest city.  It's cleaner than NY or LA and the people are more normal than those in NY or LA.

I think you're confusing this with something else.

Same answer.  You think there are many dangerous people in Sweeden or Norway?  Any gangs or organized crime?  Not too many.

It's the people, not the laws.

You cannot compare the two.  Two very different cultures and crime situations.  Less crime in Britain because of the people not because of the laws.

Re: Gun Control

Highlander you have got to be joking.

If you outlaw handguns, you'll only be taking away guns from honest citizens.  YOU WILL NEVER get guns out of the hands of criminal.  NEVER NEVER NEVER.

So knowing that, honest citizens have NO CHOICE but to carry guns to protect them selves.

Re: Omaha's biggest mansion for sale

to bad one of them is not a private home. Only one of 10 Omaha's 20,000 sqft mansions is not a private home, which is Joslyn Castle.  The other 9 are privately owned. Edit:  lol schugg (regarding post below), I edited that out, sometimes I am ashamed of how much I know about Omaha's mansions.  :D

Re: Von Maur to open first Missouri store

Von Maur I've always thought it just awful.  All they sell are a few polo shirts (like 3 or 4 colors) and just OCEANS of Tommy Bahama shirts, which are ugly.
