He would be a better fit at Oklahoma.

Though Sam Clements didn't really say it, "The coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in San Francisco." does bear repeating. I did my Honeymoon to Sonoma County in early June and made the mistake of going to San Fran in shorts and a polo. I learned that you should layer your clothes there. Wear jeans and a jacket and comfortable shoes as you will probably walk a lot. I found it very interesting that almost all the shops down by Fishermans Wharf sell jackets and long sleeve shirts. It will warm up by mid day there though and you may find while walking around that depending where you are, it will be warm or cool so a jacket or sweater that you can remove will be handy.

From the people I've talked to, the drive along the coast in Oregon is some of the most beautiful scenery in America. You should have a great time there.
I lived in San Fran for a couple of years, so I would definitely recommend spending some time in wine country north of the city. You can do some nice winery tours in a couple of hours and still have time to find a hotel and some good grub. There are plenty of B&Bs in that area, too. I would recommend Sonoma Valley rather than Napa. Napa is too commercialized for me. Drive down to Monterrey and see the bay, and stop off at Pebble Beach near Carmel. It's a pretty fun place.
Definitely check out the wine country in Sonoma county. Since you are driving south, be sure to turn off right before you get to the Golden Gate Bridge on Conzelman road and drive up to get a view of the City and the bridge. Watching the fog roll into the bay from there is awesome in the late afternoon.
Of course check out the cable cars and Alcatraz and Fisherman's wharf in San Fransisco. Be sure to dress for very cool weather there. Lots of good restaurants right there by the wharf. If you are staying in San Fran for more that a day, you may want to take a tour bus and then go back and hit the things that interest you the most after.
Also, the 17 mile drive between Monterray and Carmel is great. Check out Cannery row in Monterray as well as the aquarium. The beach at Carmel is nice. The Pacific Coast Highway south of Carmel is great as well but be sure to start that drive early in the day. I don't think that there are a lot of places to stay along that stretch of road for a while and you will want to pull over to soak in the view several times.

Whe I was young and poor, I had one pulled at the Dental College. Cost next to nothing. They just had some dental students watching the procedure. They didn't knock me out, but it was still okay.
I would recommend a regular Oral Surgeon though.

Congrats!!! Your life just got much more difficult....and very rewarding!!!

To pick her just because she is Hispanic goes against what this ruling today is all about. She has demonstrated that she just can't move forward in her thinking toward what constitutes racism. There are many better qualified picks out there.

He would have gotten away with it if he hadn't signed his artwork.

It depends on how big and where you are going to put it.
If you have to worry about reflective light, I would go with the LCD. in basements and elsewhere where there won't be other lights shining on it, go with the plasma. Obviously, the bigger the screen, the more important the need for 1080p. With smaller screens, you won't notice as much of a difference between 720 and 1080.

Looks like the Red Shirt Fridays was started in Canada back in '06, though I'm sure that it is still a nice way to show your support. I also like the mention of the Cornhuskers and "The Sea of Red."
Don't forget to donate to such good orgs as the USO and others as well though.

My daddy got busted in LA, and all he got me was this lousy t-shirt.
Even though it is too late.

the fact that Watson is still the OC will play a factor.

Had to go with Weir.
After beating the Four Horsemen in '22 and '23, Nebraska lost to the Irish in 1924. After the game though, Knute Rockne insisted on going into the Nebraska locker room to talk to Ed Weir. Rockne told him this. "Weir, I want to say to your face that you're the greatest tackle and the cleanest player I've ever watched."
Good enough for me.

This play is actually the Bumarooski. Name after Bum Phillips I believe.

SportsCenter showed a post game interview with Doc on the court where he was very emotional. Did anyone else see that and if so, does anyone know where I can find a video clip of that?
ESPNU is reshowing the game at 9:30 CST.

The name of the company who took the pictures is called ROUNDUS and they are based out of Lincoln. My BIL was one of the photographers taking pics of the stadium and athletic dept for the game.

And he still looks mahvelous!

So, did he get winded near the end of the dance?

They said grades. But Lechner's grades did not suddenly change after a few days to make them completely re-think. Me thinks it is something else.
Last I saw on the scout page he was going to re-take the ACT (2.2 and a 20 is barely eligible for NCAA). Maybe those scores came back and were not what was needed to make it (or to put the APR police at ease). Or maybe it's something else.
Anyway, Turner Gill (or even UNO) could always use his services.
Wisc is also a top-end academic institution (much harder than NU, trust me) and usually has higher standards of admission.
Looks like Whisky has cooled on Lechner because of his grades/ACT. They may pull the offer and give it to someone else who can qualify.

Get the vote out. Huskers are finally kicking Bowden's butt.

So, the Governor of NY was just trying to stimulate the economy....among other things.

Why is everyone counting the Mizzou game as an Autowin. They beat us at home just two weeks ago and they have already played two game this year at the Sprint.

I think the Stanford site is offering free webcasts to all the games in the series. You have to sign up and it can only run in Internet Explorer.

We just don't have enough televisions in this state for them to care about us.

I just hope that TTech somehow makes the CCG. Otherwise, even if we beat every other Big XII-2 team, the Red Raiders will still have scoreboard on us.
