  1. Not fair !!! (background waaa waaa crying sound). One less home cooking in 2014 and 2015 schedules. You need to pursue one more game like Chadron St or Hastings College foe.
  2. ONE B2 Bomber cost exceeded the entire Moore tornado damages. Another pet pork project courtesy of lobbyist and crooked lawmakers. I still chose B-52 fleet against lemon B2.
  3. Thousands of houses destroyed but "only" 12 people killed in residencial area. Amazing. Granted, lots of houses equipped with shelters but at least half of them no shelters at all. My co-worker used to live in Moore said his wife (now ex) survived in 1999 EF-5 tornado.....direct path, total destruction. She curling down on the laundry room slab, protect pillow (It reminds me of old atom bomb drill - "duck and cover") and one hand grabbed and tightly hold washing machine PVC drainage pipe. The only injuries was broken foot and minor scrapes, mostly legs. Another miracle story http://www.cbsnews.c...h/?id=50147264n
  4. Agreed! I think Rush is still playing today. Way back in song. '70s era. Recent years, Backstreet Boys disbanded a couple of years ago. Thank god. BB was the expertise of lip-syncing and voice enhancement. EDIT: After a two-year hiatus, BB will rejoined in 2012/2013
  5. Many houses equipped with shelters. Small steel room, kinda like dumpster, buried in the garage floor.
  6. combination of ground water, poor city planning, huge boulders, and clay soil. Clay effected by shrinking, expanding or shifting soil...... depends on rain and/or temperature. And poor planning...... sewer and water lines was an average of only two or three feet deep.
  7. My house (Norman) is 3 miles south. Bob Stoops mansion is very close...less than one mile south. Absolutely no lightning and hail in Moore before or after this tornado storm.....weird and unusual. BTW, 1999 Moore tornado was almost exactly the same path, the strongest tornado ever, EF5+, 300 miles per hour (in 1999)
  8. I don't get it. I thought diesel fuel was easy to refine vs. gas thus lower cost. Probably wrong but I think diesel was cheaper than gas 20 years ago.
  9. My favorite is Super Bowl Clydesdales Budweiser ad. I know, kinda corny but I loved it for some reason. Probably no sales pitch voice, only song (Stevie Nicks). Clydesdales Honorable mentions, Geico and Allstate commercials (only starring Dean Winters). Allstate In contrary, I hate stock investing companies ads........all of them. Also, I dislike Viagra, Cialis(sp?) and numerous drug sales pitches. Stupid.
  10. Still playing? . Myself, somewhat boring (HS and college too). I prefer new rules: 1. players replacement on the fly....... just like ice hockey rule 2. eliminate free throws. Just added 2 or 3 points if penalty occurs. 3. reduce timeouts from 5 (I think) to 3 per half. 4. increase rim height from 10 feet to 12 (perhaps). Also, I hate buzzers! ...........Way to many, probably 100 buzzers per game.
  11. Time to time purged movies due to expired rights......... I believe the last devastating period was last December/January. Anyway, I mostly used documentaries section. I like no commercials. Still a bargain IMO ($7.99/mo). BTW, I NEVER used ABC/NBC/CBS networks plus PPV events except sports.
  12. A month ago, the pump price was $3 threshold, 33% increase within 30 days. Okay, what's the story with new make believe reasons? I believe no hurricanes, no oil spills, no new wars, etc. Trivia: I remember the lowest price was .19/gal in mid 60's (Sioux Falls)...... let me think now...... $4 divided by .19 equals 21. Compared: My dad purchased a brand new Magnavox 23" colored TV, again, mid 60's. I remember the price was $500, on sale!
  13. 2014 and 2015 schedules both Wisky games in Madison? Not fair ! This is just for 2014, I think. see 2015 schedule
  14. 2014 and 2015 schedules both Wisky games in Madison? Not fair !
  15. Are you sure? Your video apparently showed a tornado funnel hidden behind heavy rain and dust.
  16. Wow! Believe it or not, I have never seen a tornado live, all videos. I was born in Sioux Falls, moved to Hastings Nebraska, then Lincoln, and finally (B)Norman.......all tornado alley. I guess right time, right place.
  17. any thoughts? New Bill - Online Sales Tax
  18. It depends on which generations. Most older generation banned all sports for gay/lesbian people, hard drug usage, gambling, etc. Similar to section 8 military law before "don't ask don't tell" position. Even a bunch of elderly people said all homosexuals type sent to mental institution stay ......hopefully "cured" like lobotomy or experimental drug . Also, reject same sex marriage.
  19. Background system is a joke and 2nd amendment too......way outdated and mostly prove manhood (male species used to be clubs and then muskets; now, it is guns). Only two choices IMO: 1) banned all guns or .... (I think UK laws) 2) legalized all guns without background system ....nothing in between, again IMO.
  20. MODS: Please eliminate and delete this horrified thread. Thank you. Signed, Ed Cunningham
  21. I didn't really care about prime-time TV or not. Hopefully all 2013 Huskers games will carry in live broadcast including non-conference cupcakes (wyo, sdsu, smiss) without PPV. Thank god for BTN.
  22. Well at least Gophers, Hoosiers and Wildcats was shutout. Illini got 4, better than Buckeyes, Wolverines, Spartans and Badgers. SEC(62-whoa!), ACC(30), PAC12(28), BIG10(22), BIG12(20) final
  23. Okay, I admit I will crawl out from under my rock in religion aspect. Exactly why many Muslim faith, in particular middle east area, hate United States? Follow the Quran(sp?) holy book?
  24. In Oklahoma, death row criminals lasted an average of 10 years from arrest to execute. Tim McVeigh lasted "only" 6+ years in death row because he dropped his appeals and confessed. If he selected full appeals/stays, he will probably still alive.
