I have just received word that the greatest radio station in all of radiodom, 90.3 KRNU has now resumed its full-time streaming. Do yourself a favor and listen to it all the time (especially Wednesdays at 10pm for “PROM” and Thursdays at 7pm for “You are So Beautiful, Beautiful Robot”).
I’ve been doing editorial cartoons for The San Diego Reader since January 2002, but I have to say, it’s not often that I get any feedback. I don’t believe a single non-spam comment has ever been posted in the San Diego section at nealo.com. One time, I saw a San Diego blog mention my cartoons […]
Ron Hull is a legend in public television, here in Nebraska and especially worldwide. He’s been involved with public television since 1955 and has been a high-ranking official in the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. I had him as a lecturer in International Broadcasting back in 1999. It was a great class, and thanks to that […]
Having just driven back from Omaha on I-80, I wanted to share this visual example to follow up on my previous post about interstate traffic in Nebraska. Here you can clearly see that all three lanes are full of cars. You may note the semi in the right lane, which could lead to the assumption […]
Having spent a large portion of the last weekend driving interstates 80 and 94, I started thinking again about that fantastic new, yet not fully complete, six-lane stretch of interstate between Omaha and Lincoln.

I was in Platte City, Missouri last summer, and I remember laughing when I saw the door to the library. There was a sign posted saying that guns were not allowed in the library. I was like “What kind of primitive place is this, where they have to tell people not to bring guns into […]
I posted about it back in June the night after seeing it for the first time, but here, by way of YouTube, is the video for “Conventional Wisdom” by Built to Spill.
These days, when I find myself burnt out on most music in general, I tend to get re-acquainted with a band I haven’t listened to in years and then get really obsessive and listen to pretty much nothing but that band for weeks. The latest is Tears for Fears. While I was out on my […]
Hal Munson, one of my childhood heroes, is dead. Actor Benjamin Hendrickson committed suicide last week. “As the World Turns” was a big part of my youth and again in my mid-20s. ATWT was my constant after moving from Nebraska to California. I came back to the show right in time for the amazing late-2000 […]
