My mother had gotten into an argument with one of my many distant aunts over something very simple, and yet very important. Apparently, one of my cousins from outside the state told his mother that he wants to go to a Nebraska high school because he thinks that the schools in their state [...]

So I woke up this morning in a really bad mood, and I had no inkling of why that’s so. Donna and Mom both thought it was because something annoying may happen today, and my anger sense tingles in occasions such as this. Not appreciating the teasing, I kidnapped my nephew who [...]

I’m drinking beer with my boys, and reflecting (as the conversation once again steers toward the subject of football) that knowledge of the Nebraska football roster is just as important as knowing when the games are and who the team is going up against.

I’ve taken to turning off the television lately and just turning on the radio and listening to the various Nebraska Radio stations we can listen to. There are, of course, some Nebraska radio stations that make me wrinkle my nose in discomfort; some Nebraska radio stations play far too much country for my tastes, [...]

I just received a call from Dad (who was part of the cavalry that was hunting my two foolish cousins down for being idiotic, not for being gay), and he told me that it looks like our relatives had gone from Otoe County to Cass County Nebraska, and it may take a bit more time [...]
