  1. Cowherd: America's worst public speaker = Bill Belechick, America's best public speaker = Obama, America's GOOFIEST public speaker = Tim Kaine.

      Do people actually listen to Cowherd?

  4. My church is conveniently a pokestop. I also found a dunkin donuts to be a pokestop as well.

      There shouldnt be any poking going on in a church, or a dunkin doughnuts for that matter.

      I've been hitting social media marketing for our church heavy with the pokemon stuff. Dropped a lure during our youth ministry last night and the kids were going wild. Have also been putting waters out with a sign for any people that come by.

      That's awesome LOMS! I haven't seen ONE person out catching Pokemon in North Platte.

      -1 can't work around here. People that constantly disagree with certain people would go out of their way to use the system against those who disagreed with them.

  7. Someone old enough....is this starting to feel like 1980s and 90s LA unrest? After watching the OJ doc, I'm curious if we're going through some similar things but nationally. Thanks.

      I saw a thing on Twitter today that said that a recent poll found that race relations right now are worse than after the OJ verdict.

       

      Crazy stuff...

      I believe it. It's one thing to riot after the Rodney King beating or to celebrate an obviously guilty man getting off but it's quite another when people go after police officers. That is not going to win any friends or generate sympathy for the cause. It will do the exact opposite. Guessing it will be pretty ugly for quite awhile.

      To me, it seems much deeper and tense.

  8. This OJ 30 for 30 has been fantastic. Was only 6-7 years old at the time this took place, amazing piece of work by the producers.

      I just started it last night. I finished the first two parts, and so far so good. I was too young to understand everything at the time, so this has been a very entertaining, informative documentary.

  9. I sincerely apologize for what I said in the BLM status. I honestly didn't even realize what I said. My God. I was trying to be funny and trying to poke fun at Va JJ at the time. Just being honest. I am SINCERELY sorry. Goodness.

      Dude. I already said what I intended. I owned what I intended and what I didn't. I owned it all dude. I took and take responsibility for my mistakes. Always. I'm just being honest. You don't have to believe me but I was being sincere and I still am.

      You're good, Coach. Macro may be the one man in history to not make a mistake, ever.

  10. Just found out that in North Platte, Dish network doesn't have the Local Channels (ABC, CBS, FOX etc) in HD. Only Standard Def. In this day and age, there should not be standard def anymore.

      Pretty sure it's a separate input into the TV. DVR is a problem for over-the-air signals like that. There are work-arounds, but they're hard to set up.

      Get a digital antenna and then get a Tivo, and avoid the monthly cost of Dish's rental for their own DVR

      The biggest hurdle to a real discussion about race is the fear of being honest with each other.

      I think there is plenty of room for people to be able to consider something sinful behavior without being labeled as "against" the people who may commit those sins. The saying; hate the sin, not the sinner comes to mind. The Catholic church considers lots of things sins but they (at least the Priests I have been exposed to) are very clear to differentiate between the sin and the sinner. Of course some people don't want any behavior frowned upon by others.

      Good god. It's possible to disagree with a lifestyle, yet not "hate" the person(s). Why the hell does everything have to be so exclusive of each other. it's laziness. Pure laziness

      I don't think anyone is trying to say Chick-fil-A hates gays and are surprised they're not happy about the shooting.

       

      That doesn't make it any less surprising and cool that they're going out of their way to help in this situation.

      Why so much hate? I mean, even if a person is against homosexuality, why so much hate to the point where they want to kill innocent people? #PerplexingHatefulPeople

    3. huKSer

      huKSer

      If your religion condemns homosexuality why kill gays? Let your god take care of the "problem" in the afterlife by sending their soul to a place of torment for eternity.

      More non teaching matters that teachers have to deal with. Wonder what teachers could accomplish when they're focusing on curriculum and not social issues
