Buddy in Lincoln is clear, sounds like he spent a lot of the evening in a parking garage basement
He may not want to stray too far, I think it may pop off again tonight and tomorrow. It went 0 to tornado much faster than usual so thankfully today wasn’t the spring game that’s scheduled for tomorrow which would have been one hell of a goat rodeo

keep who calm?
A little of both I suppose

Sounds like in a small miracle only 3 of the 70 employees in the collapsed plastics plant were injured, all non-critical. Also a BNSF coal train was removed from the tracks without injuries

I’m sure they were offered Busch Lights by folks going out to drink and storm watch

A plastics plant Lincoln adjacent took a direct hit, working to unearth trapped workers now. Storm crossed I-80, and plowed pretty hard into the new money Omaha suburbs after tossing a number of semi’s. My wife teaches history in a preserved 1 room school house in a park, and had to ride it out with a bunch of 4th graders in the city parks reptile center where they let the kids pet the snakes to keep them calm.

A couple hundred thousand ballistic missiles and drones.
Wheat and cattle trading has not kept me up on arms stuff I guess.

What does Iran have that they can lob all the way across to Levant?

I drove over that on a normal summer day and can say riding on a Lao Air Dash8 loaded like a flatbed into Luang Pangbang was more enjoyable for me.

I have a pretty sound survival plan.
I have a recent copy of a prepper real estate sales magazine. I have weapons and enough gas and food to go to drive to one of those. Very cost efficient.
If shit really falls apart, what does putting a bunch of effort into surviving get me? Probably not a goddamn thing

He played a year for Billy Gillespie at Ranger too

Poor Trev is gonna be so cornfused and cornflicted next week.
Also probably the first time an AD one side, and the coach on the other are co-defendants in a lawsuit.

The NCAA going with double NU/Aggy first round tourney games is pretty funny at least

I hope the ongoing NU women's basketball lawsuit that Trev is named in blows up in Aggy's face like Les Miles's LSU stuff got him canned at KU. Also even by our standards the dumbfucks we elected to the Board of Regents and Gov.. have managed to fuck up what was a reasonably cromulent land grant system for a state of our size.

My best friend from High School invited me to come to the Berkshire Hathaway meeting in May. I might go, as Warren is getting long in the tooth.
Anybody ever been?I accidentally went to Nebraska Furniture Mart during the Berkshire Hathaway meeting which was a mistake.

I noticed at PHX this week that their skyTrain cars are made by Bombardier. They should stick to those and watercraft.
Their ATV’s aren’t anymore dangerous than anyone else’s either

For me I keep finding it an increasing turnoff. (I had a front row seat for an Uncles horrendous gambling problem, and I’ve never placed sports bets because of that and almost no other gambling) I’ve always been a big sports in general guy, but with gambling stuff seeping into all levels of the coverage and I hear my coworkers keep talking about their increasing bets,(and none them bet two years ago at all) it just makes me feel like something bad is going to evolve out of the spread.

Deere sells you the hardware (cast iron, tires, pistons, etc.) but retains the software you need for the engine and transmission.
No problem until it’s time to fix it. Your service guy needs to fix plug his laptop into it and read the problem codes. Deere got real uppity about who they’d license that software too. Only wanted their dealers to have it. Royal might correct me, but I think Deere has walked that back some? Letting farmers and independent mechanics license the repair software?
It's been walked back, Farm Bureau really latched on to that. It's kind of a weird divide because the guys shelling out for a bunch on new green paint are absolutely not doing anything beyond basic maintenance themselves anyway, but it's the guy running at 8410 and 9660 that's worried he's going to pay for the mega-dealership building if something is beyond him. Also you a bit of this probably has to do with all the stolen RTK receivers and such floating around too.

While there is some leasing, most of those tractors are going to be owned by a farmer within 3 years of being built, and will be in service for decades.

Train travel always reminds me of this song. Some great visuals.
Along with Atlantic City, I don't know if there is a bad version of this song as long as it's done by a competent musician

We've decided to do a train trip for a big vacation sometime in the next year or so in the US or Canada. I think our lean right now is Nebraska to SF, then north to Seattle, then back to Minneapolis and then home from there. Also considering doing some Mountain trip/cross country in Canada. Anyone have useful tips?

The wife and I are going to upgrade our bed this spring. Is getting an adjustable bed worth it? We don't spend a lot of time in it out side of sleeping and fucking if that makes a difference.

I'll be there first day to see this. I watch Twister probably twice a year already, and I will give this all sorts of the benefit of the doubt. This and Furiosa are about the only two things I'm excited about this year.

Kinda depends on what you inherited.
Stocks get a step-up in basis, so you will want to figure out what they were worth on the day of her death.
An IRA account or a Roth IRA account becomes an inherited account. You have 10 years to take the money out. You have to take some required minimum distributions each year. You will be taxed on the normal IRA distributions, but anything from a Roth is tax free.
Real estate should also get a step up in basis, so you need guess of what it was worth on the day of death and you''l have to figure out what you want to do with it. Real estate is tough to split if you end up sharing it with someone else and they want to sell and you don't.
Some stuff may have to go through probate, but other accounts where you are named beneficiary can be transferred pretty fast.
The first stuff is checking account cash, the balance of an investment account at Edward Jones that I do not know the current composition of, an annuity with Thrivent and life insurance money. The house will be sold later, and the Uncle currently farming will buying the rest of us out on the farm ground later on under the terms set by the will, after they figure out the cell phone tower buyout. I also got a pocket knife, a painting and some dish towels and will get to go through the recipe box.

Nebraska tornados today
in Daily Texan
Posted · Edited by Royalfan5
I really hope we don’t run this back tomorrow. (Which was originally supposed to be the spicy day) I missed being in the big part of the storm by being at a family funeral south of Lincoln, but we all knew things were going to be bad with the way the 125 year old country Lutheran church was swaying and some of the grossest humidity I can ever recall. (Which makes me wonder what my German speaking ancestors thought the first time they got a plains storm showing up 1890ish)
