    Pickleball

    My wife and I started playing last summer. Lots of fun. I have a knee issue from a torn meniscus repair from 20 years ago. Pickleball does not cause me any pain in my knee at all. Our HOA put pickleball lines on the typically unused tennis courts.. The courts see lots more use now.

    Husker watch site in Denver for NU/Illinois game

    The Pub on Pearle west of wash Park was a Husker bar. Small and owned by Nebraskans but that was 20 years ago.

    Gameday Bar Scene / Barry's

    I know Barry's was open in the late 80s, but why would you go there on game days when you could go downstairs to Chesterfields/Big Red Pool room and smell the sewer backing up.

    OT: Got my first vaccine

    I got my Pfizer shots in January and February. I was pretty tired the day after second shot and got the chills the following day it was 11 below though). I was struck by the sense of relief I felt at each step, from getting the appointment at the VA, to each shot. My wife gets her second...

    Former Husker Legrone...

    One thing that perhaps most people don't know is that juries are never told anything about punishment, save for death penalty cases perhaps (that is evolving and its been years since I was involved in a DP case, could be wrong). On normal run of the mill criminal cases, the judge sentences...

    As I understand it, that's why there was an acquittal.

    Former Husker Legrone...

    There is already a statute in place that covers this, False Reporting Neb. Rev. Stat. 28-907. I cannot read the minds of the jurors of course here, but I would bet you a cup of coffee that the verdict hinged on the young woman not actively denying consent. Mallory mentioned that in her cross...

    Former Husker Legrone...

    Me either. There's a reason its not used in the statute. I really can't expect a 19 year old woman to know the legal definition, but can try to help old dudes n a football board know it a bit.

    It may be a fine point, but the charge was Sexual Assault, 1st Degree. Rape is not mentioned in Neb. Rev. Stat. 28-319(1)(A).

    Got my vaccination today....

    Just to add to anecdotal evidence, the day after my second Pfizer shot, I had some sore joins and was tired. The second day, I had chills for about 4 hours (of course it was -11 degrees so could have just been cold). My 80 year old father had no side effects at all (we got dosed the same days...

    OT: Purple mattress/alternatives

    Computers are also a fad. We're going back to IBM Selectircs and carbon paper. I can almost smell the toner from the mimeograph machine now.

    Got my vaccination today....

    We are both veterans. The VA in Omaha is almost pleading to get vets in to give them vaccines. Appointments are nearly walk in. I am 55 but due to my work, I hang out in jails quite often (they always let me leave though) and so was deemed an essential worker.

    Got my vaccination today....

    I got my second Pfizer shot this past Friday afternoon. On Saturday morning, I felt tired and a bit achy. Nothing terrible, even went out with my wife on Saturday evening for the first time in 11 months. Sunday started ok, was able to shovel the walks (again) but about the time the volleyball...

    Got my vaccination today....

    I got second Pfizer today at 3. Took ibuprofen 2 hours before. So far nothing of note. Glad to be done though. Wish my wife could get it, but she has no DD214.

    Got my vaccination today....

    I have my second Pfizer shot set for next Friday. The VA in Omaha has essentially has walk in appointments for DD214 holders. I did have to schedule an appointment but I set it for two days later at the same time as my 80 year old father. Also, wonder what happens to my brother and his...

    OT: Covid -19 Vaccine

    Glad to hear that. My 80 year old father and I got our Pfizer jabs a week ago at the VA. Neither of us experienced any negative side effect(s). Looking forward to getting second in 2 weeks.

    OT: Celebrities you’ve met and impressions

    I had lunch with Gregg Allman in a soul food joint in Macon GA in 2011. Nice guy, fantastic food.

    Ricketts, "Masks work, but no state mandate".

    I am not all that cynical about finding out about long term effects. I am sure that finding out the long term effects of chicken pox was purely economical. Someone realized that all of these people who'd had chicken pox were getting shingles post 50th trip around the sun. There was a buck to...
