The coolest pics I have seen in a while.

But I *AM* a gangster!

You know, there was this cool little thing here that was kinda funny and I think it said women find me cute, but it kept messing up. It's gone now.

The CORN Crib Multi-media Archive

There is no place like Nebraska
Dear old Nebraska U.
Where the girls are the fairest,
The boys are the squarest,
Of any old school that I knew.
There is no place like Nebraska,
Where they're all true blue.
We'll all stick together,
In all kinds of weather,
For Dear old Nebraska U!

I love bees

Not quite sure about this, LCX, investigate!

Working Friday

For those of you keeping score, on Friday I am working 9-5. So why am I still up if my alarm goes off in like just over seven hours? Because I am a poser, that's why.

Why not, I haven't linked to any Blogs for a while (you know, like a couple hours). Here is a new one that I found while playing around on Blogger and felt like linking because I can. You gonna stop me? Unless you are LCX, I don't think you can. That's right, I own you!
Wait, no I don't, but didn't that sound all cool and stuff, like Tony Montana or Tony Soprano or something? Just call me Tony Merl.

Yahoo! GeoCities - Site Statistics Keywords Report

Just playing with my stats, and traffic is up. I would like to welcome any new readers and invite you to make yourself at home, maybe comment on some articles.

Anyways, a few searches have been lighting up the site lately. Morgan Webb is still a popular search, I hope Ashley Judd isn't upset about that fact.
jibjab is a very popular search right now, probably because I linked to them once. Also, Michael Tata is a popular search.

I want to send a message to people searching for that. I share your pain. The man was struck down in his prime, when he should have had the world he died alone in his sleep. It is truly a trajedy. :(

Now as for my Fark profile about to usurp googles search page as the top referer? That is hardcore. I can dig that.

A few comments on this one.  I posted it after running into Dan, I haven't seen that man in ages.  Him and me go back to my days as a temp at the bank,  someone who knows the old me.  I am not the old me, I don't even know the old me, he was a loser and stuff.  So life is grand, I keep running into people I used to know, so let me do some shoutouts to people that should surface:
 
Justin, Kev, Kel and the whole gang at BV, whuddup?
Shannon, hows it goin?
J-Dawg, you still alive mano?
Beavis, have you stopped answering my text messages?

I am on a quest to photograph downtown Omaha as I see it. I will be linking albums every now and then to my ofoto account. This first batch is the corner of 25th and Dodge street. The day of the shoot they had just started tearing down the old mortuary on the SouthWest corner. It had most recently served as a day care. To give you your bearings, on the NorthWest corner (across Dodge) is Physicians Mutual. On the SouthEast corner is 2223 Dodge Street, an old Northern Natural Gas building that was most recently the First National Service Center. On the NorhthEast corner is Joslyn Art Museum, home of the Jazz on the Green series.

Many Apologies to Ashley Judd. I didn't realize that I hadn't put any links up about the love of my life since switching to Blogger. Please don't hold this against me Ashley, I promise it will never happen again! :)

If you are currently borrowing games and stuff from Big Merl and NOT playing them, please consider returning them. If you are playing them, go ahead and keep playing them. Just wanted to make sure people didn't forget and stuff. Thanks!
