June 24th, 2009, Nora, Neb: Just about everything is sold on the Internet today. That includes horses. You can buy a horse online from P.D. Jones, 61, or as he likes to be called 'Bud.' Bud is a genuine and hard working man. He is albino and legally blind. Bud raises horses from a yearling, which is a horse of either sex that is between one and two years old, trains them for riding, and sells them when they are ready.

The U.S. economy may be striking out, but the College World Series is still hitting home runs for Omaha.
Baseball fans flocked to Omaha from June 13 to June 25 as never before. Rosenblatt Stadium hosted the most fans in its 59 year history as home to the College World Series. The opening game of the CWS drew 23,549 fans, which is 3,500 more than last year's opener. The old attendance record of 330,099 set in 2008 was broken Wednesday when Louisiana State University beat the University of Texas in the final game of the championship series.

DEWITT, NEB.; My nostrils can now recognize the difference between cow and pig poop. Cow has an overwhelming nastiness to it, the kind of stench that makes you roll up your window when you're driving by.
