    Best Job in the World...

    I agree with most of this. I do think there is little difference between pay not because of the unions, but because they good teachers allow it because they love what they do. The system takes advantage and pays them little. Another issue is salary growth. I know of a teacher in texas who...

    Best Job in the World...

    You are all assuming that most teachers only put in the hours required (or that they get paid for). I know several that have to put in 60-70 hours a week at their job. I understand that my mother was an extreme as far as hours put in, but I still believe that their pay is rediculous. Not paying...

    Best Job in the World...

    I have to say, I totally disagree with all of the comments about teachers needing to shut up about how underpaid they are. I don't even know what to say... I've never heard a valid argument for thinking someone that teaches and shapes your kids future is worth less than someone making a...

    NFL: Denver to try and Trade Marshall

    I don't either, but with no passing threat, if other teams load up to stop the run it certainly won't help. Moreno is unproven, Torrain is injury prone, Buckhalter and Jordan are both in their 10th year I believe... I'm not comfortable as a fan saying it's ok to lose the QB and best WR because...

    That's my point.

    NFL: Denver to try and Trade Marshall

    Not even considering that Moreno is a rookie, this past season they had like 5 running backs who could play. Even with that, they ended up getting Tatum Bell out of the Aurora Mall after luring him away from a great career in selling cell phones. The chiefs had Larry Johnson and without a legit...

    NFL: Denver to try and Trade Marshall

    Anything over 7 would honestly surprise me now. Without the top two weapons in your offense you're relying a LOT on Orton. Nothing against him, but he's not going to make any plays for you. I think he's someone you can rely on to not make too many bad mistakes, but without playmakers, Denver is...

    Why I hate Apple stores

    Not trying to say it's a major accomplishment. I was just trying to refute the comment that Apple = Trash and nothing lasts more than 3 years. I'm not trying to argue that it's better than PC, but arguing that they're not garbage.

    Why I hate Apple stores

    You could have. Before you even went in, you could have made an appointment online, walked to the genius bar at your appointment time, and only had to deal with the one guy. He would have done the reset check, and given you your new iTouch.

    Why I hate Apple stores

    My iMac is running on 4.5 years without any issues. It's like the day I bought it. I gave my iPod mini to my father because I wanted a new iPod. My iPod is 3.5 years old now... both it and the mini are still working great. I wouldn't call it trash. The only reason I replace them is because I...

    Why I hate Apple stores

    I'm kind of confused here... what other store do you expect to get better service from? Are you going to take your new Zune in to the Microsoft store when it breaks? I hope that works out for you. I should note that I also get frustrated when I have to make an appointment at the "genius bar" (...

    Fast Food You Wish Would Come to the Area

    I think Nebraskans love of Runza is very similar to their love of the Huskers. At some point in their life they were told that they had to love it, or just decided they would because everyone else seemed to... even if the product sucks. I totally agree with the B-Bops vs In n Out burger...

    Name My New Dog

    Of all the suggestions so far, I like Kildee.

    Name My New Dog

    I thought the swans were Lancelot and Elaine? (Ellie would still work I guess) I like Clyde... even though it's a girl. Also, if you ever lived in a dorm... names like Friley could be nice.

    WWDC Keynote Today...

    Not to derail the mac bashing vs mac loving... Along the lines of the different carrier, I've heard that AT&T's exclusivity ends in 2010, as well as rumblings that Apple could break the contract if they felt it financially made sense (and recent reports have estimated their customer base to...

    WWDC Keynote Today...

    Apple's WWDC Keynote is today (10am PDT). Is anyone else following this with anticipation like me? What are your expectations and hopes for the new announcements? I've heard anything from software only, to new iPhone hardware being announced (with rumors all over the map)... and possibly a...

    Cool Iowa small towns

    McGregor Iowa is a great little port town right on the Mississippi. In addition theres a new microbrewery thats opened in a completely renovated historic building called Old Man River Restaurant and Brewery. Great beer, and great upscale casual atmosphere and food. Definitely worth a try...

    Renew your season tickets!!!

    Man, that sucks. Sorry... I'm sure they'll work with you though. I'd call and ask to talk with Matt Johnson (Director of Ticket Operations) tomorrow and explain you tried to call before they closed at 5:00, but there was no answer.
