  1. If you don’t believe in their ability to maintain them and have quarterly earnings to make, sure.
  2. So we were just going to disarm the troops we allegedly trained for the Afghan govt before we left?
  3. I like how everyone is acting like this is the first time a shit load of American weaponry has changed sides. We’ll probably do it again somewhere else in the future too
  4. My office is right next to wilderness park at 1st and Van Dorn. Parts are still isolated though. They brought back the mask mandate today, my fiancé was already wearing them since she works with life skills kids in middle school.
  5. Zestos is still trucking along, at least on South Street. I don’t think it’s changed much. I’m guess you ran where Southwest is now. It’s filled in pretty good with residential now, and our Costco, plus the South Beltway is finally being built.
  6. Run’em all through hydraulic squeeze chutes to do it to
  7. Lincoln Public Schools.
  8. So here in Lincoln, which is 70% vaxxed, LPS students are 20% of the cases.
  9. I’ll have to say I’ve enjoyed the hell out of it so far. Anyone else here watching it?
  10. Lutherans moved a lot of Vietnamese too. Why do you think the Hmong all ended up in Minnesota and Wisconsin?
  11. The Mormons and the ELCA Lutherans are probably the religious groups that do the most in refugee resettlement area.
  12. I’ve always wondered if Toyota does insurgent focus groups to make sure they keep their edge in the field
  13. While there are a lot of failures here, is it even possible to build a cohesive armed force there? If you did the exact opposite of the above deals, I don't think you necessarily end of closer to a useful national army.
  14. As bad as the collapse has been, taking the long over due L on this was needed. By taking the L we can start moving ourselves forward finally, and maybe not rush ourselves into another trap.
  15. Knowing where they’re at is a lot different than being able to not end up glowing in the dark.
  16. Nuclear winter should offset global warming nicely
  17. Because if anything this pandemic has showed us is that people here will quietly tolerate shortages and inconvenience as part of a perceived greater good, right?
  18. I’m really only concerned about how we deal with the situation at hand, and given that we can’t stop stepping on our collective dicks on that front, and I can’t imagine how spending a bunch of time trying find something to blame is going to a constructive use of time.
  19. The fiancé and I decided today to go ahead and punt of the idea of an October PNW honeymoon and hope people figure their shit out into spring
  20. Leaning on rocks will help you do that.
  21. And some times skepticism wonders out on to the road and gets hit by the truck they were questioning the existence of
  22. Pretty much anything ordered now has to be pre-sold by the dealer before it goes out by everyone in Ag or ag adjacent. Until it slacks off no one is going to get anything for stocks until trade. I know of 1 Agco dealer that has basically 3 weeks of full plant production of the big tracked tractors and HHP models already on the books for fall.
  23. One of the things working in the commodity business has taught me is that a 3% miss on something like corn yields, or sow farrowings turnings into 30% moves in other areas really quick. I don't think that is something that is grasped by the public at large very well. Also that if you get behind, it's hard as hell to catch up, so you have to stay ahead of things, and the cult of cost cutting is bring that home in a lot of lower end retail business now. Locally we just had a Family Dollar have all their staff quit, near the Burger King where all the staff quit after both places tried to run who they had into the ground.
  24. The Mayor and Chancellor Green have pretty much washed their hands of trying to do anything proactive after dumbfuck Ricketts and Governor Candidate and current Regent Pillen have been trying to kneecap them on everything.
  25. The speed that stuff has fallen apart here in Lincoln has been shocking even with pretty decent vax rates in Lancaster Co. The Garth Brooks Stadium concert is cruising ahead for next week to supercharge things too.
