I guess I should mention that my Great Uncle was killed over DFW in 1995 in a mid-air collision when a student pilot was screwing around and hit his cargo plane.
My Aunt and Uncle who live by Giddings, had a neighbor killed a few years back when his bush hog threw a wire through the back of his skull. I had a neighbor growing up who rolled a tractor into a pond, and was pinned with survivable injuries except he couldn't get his head above water and drowned before the tractor could be pulled off of him.
So after the Kansas vote last week, Nebraska's thumb of a Gov. scrapped a special session on abortion because he didn't have the votes in the Unicameral to do shit.

Victims were an elderly couple and 55 year old daughter, and another 53 year old woman. In non-shocking news the suspect wasn't actually a black man traveling through rural Nebraska as originally report, but a local who lived on the same street as the fires.

A town of about 1100 people had 4 people killed in two separate fires/explosions overnight. Suspect is at large. (I would take the suspect description in the article with a massive grain of salt) I can’t thing of many arson killing sprees off the top of my head, will be interesting if anything gets solved here.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Estonia already leaning pretty Fascist pre-war? There used to be a plaque about their President pre-war outside my office at UNL since he was also an Cornhusker alum, and they were pretty vague about things.
Is there a route to do it that is more interesting than others. I’ve done it before but just got on I-35 at Ft. Worth and got off at Waco. I’d like to go visit my family at Giddings, and while we both live just off US77 several states apart, every so often I like to go Archer City because of my deep fondness for the McMurtry novels set there, and am curious what the most interesting way across is?
Funds getting run the fuck over to the downside, and not wanting to margin, + rain in Iowa-Illinois. We were down 2 million on soybean acres on the report and we puke 2 bucks is something that wouldn't usually happen. Old crop is still inverted with strong basis for the most part, and generally speaking we either bounce or the inversion has to die once the fund rout is over.
I hope they touch on how comically inept the county was in dealing with the lawsuit. Some of the Surly lawyers would probably stroke out if they go into depth on it.
