    I've been to Hastings...Spent the night at a college buddy's house once back in about '72...Also was offered a full scholarship to run track at Hastings College...But only if I would play football.

    Ski...I knew of a place in Loomis...Mea knows where that is...where you could gas up for free...No locks on the pumps after hours...But that was in the mid 70's...Don't think you could do that now.

    OUT of HERE

    Tues === Tring to make a case for leaving this slow mover behined, and the latest press release sure makes it more TROUBLESOME. The divy is gone, will this make holders less enthusiastic, or is there some other reason to be a holder. Looking at the charts I'm still in, RIDING the top of the BB with only one brake since the cross over. MACD is still trending upward. RSI is still pos. but will it hold. After hours down another dime. Will be letting this crossovergo Monday morn. unless something pos. changes my mind. Sometimes you just leave the plan beheined. Marlin

    Mea,
    The only time I was ever in Nebraska was 30 years ago on our honeymoon. We were camping our way across country and on the way to Wyoming and Montana to Yellowstone. We were driving a International Harvester Scout and the gas tank was about 3/4 full when we got into Nebraska and we drove and drove without ever seeing another car or town for hours. The gas tank got down to empty, I usually don't let my cars get that low before filling them, and no sight of a gas station or civilization. No farm houses or anything that I could possibly stop at and get some gas. It was late October and it was very cold out. My wife, whose hysterical level is way way lower than mine, was starting to get very anxious because she begged me to stop and fill up before entering Nebraska and I didn't, was getting into one of those I told you so moods and I thought for sure we were going to run out of gas and be stranded in the middle of nowhere in the middle of the night.
    Finally we come to a railroad crossing which consisted of several grain elevators and the railroad tracks and thank God a 1 pump gas station that was open. It was about 8pm and the guy was just closing up for the day and we were able to fill up. I asked him if there were any signs of life out there and he told me about a mile up the road was a place called Jack' where the food was excellent and another mile past that was a Day's Inn. There were no other signs of life anywhere. It turns out that Jack's was a very large quonset hut type of building about 200 ft. long and at least 100 ft. wide. There were at least a couple of hundred cars and trucks parked outside and one sign that said Jack's. Nothing else. I thought the guy was pulling a joke on us and it was a church. We went inside and they had several rows of picnic tables laid end to end the entire length of the building and it was packed with people eating dinner served family style. Had to be several hundred people in the building.
    I remember my wife had the Filet Mignon and I had the 20 oz. T-bone steak. You could cut the steaks with a butter knife. They were the most tender pieces of meat that I have ever eaten anywhere. My steak cost just under $10 and my wife's filet mignon, they brought out two of them out on one plate, was $8. There were at least 5 differnent vegetables served family style and you could help yourself and eat as much as you could hold down. No alcohol but you could bring your own which we didn't but the people around us were very congenial and offered us some beer which I was happy to take them up on. One of my most memorable meals. Fond memories of Nebraska but not much there then except farmland and bales of hay or straw piled up into hugh rectangles 40 to 50 ft. long and 20 ft. high. Has it changed much since then. Where are you located in the state?

    KSW ==== May be wrong but is this one of BIG Esss picks from the past.

    6 Month trend line is stright across. 10 ema just kicked off a steady down trend. Just had a great day as far as price, Slow start but a kickass close. A day or so back reports released but they should not have caused this type of close. May be picking some of this up in the morn. Marlin
