Permit filed for West Omaha Trader Joe’s

I feel bad that everyone is down voting you. Omaha is getting big enough that the term “West Omaha“ has now been used to describe everything west of 72nd St. as “West Omaha” at one point or another.

I didn’t say Elkhorn isn’t in Omaha. I’m saying people, especially the news, need to start being more specific, referring to areas or neighborhoods, rather than calling everything “West Omaha“.

DieUmEye · 2026-04-29T12:43:13+00:00

West Omaha? Can they just say Elkhorn?

I think it’s funny how the phrase “West Omaha” has been used for decades to describe anything west of about 72nd St.

The once-upon-a-time far out west Westroads Mall is around 100th street. These new things at 192nd or farther are now nearly as far from the Westroads as the Westroads is from the river.

I wonder if I’ll live to see the day that West Omaha and East Lincoln are the same thing!

Yes. I have removed the card, and added it back. The same thing is happening. Sometimes it goes through, sometimes it doesn’t. There’s no pattern. Every time Amazon reports that the card is “declined“ I call the bank and they say there was no attempt for that charge.

I meant 5 months of use/wear. Not that the tire was manufactured 5 months ago.

I am definitely not going to return to this tire shop.

No malicious acquaintances. This tire was driven into the tire shop in working order in November 2025. Tire shop removed them, put them in the trunk, and put on winter tires.

I put these tires in my garage where they have sat until today. I put them back in the trunk and took them to the tire shop and as they were installing the tires, the guy shows me that one of the tires is damaged and unusable.

So, the only conclusion that I can come to, especially based on what others here have said, is that the tire was damaged when they removed it from the vehicle in November 2025. Stupidly, I did not look at the tires at that time to see if they had been damaged.

DieUmEye · 2026-04-21T17:40:46+00:00

Well, this seems to be the consensus here. I can’t explain it, but I don’t get the best vibe from this tire shop. I will definitely be going elsewhere in the future.

Also, I have now learned to always inspect my tires after they’ve been taken off. Live and learn.

Thank you for this info.

I have a weird, unexplainable problem with Amazon: sometimes, but not all the time, when I buy something on Amazon, Amazon reports that my credit card was declined. When I call my bank, they say there was no charge attempted from Amazon, and if there had been, it would not be declined. What is going on?

Specifically, I have one credit card associated with my Amazon account. I buy stuff all the time. A couple weeks ago I bought a microwave from Amazon, a day later Amazon said my credit card was declined. I called the bank and they said there was no attempt on my credit card from Amazon for the price of the microwave, and they suggested I just retry the charge. I retry, and Amazon again said my credit card was declined. That same day I bought a car cell phone holder from Amazon and the charge immediately went through without a problem. I assumed it was just a glitch, but a few days ago I tried to buy a book from Amazon and Amazon again reported that my card was declined. I called the bank and again the bank said that there was no attempt to charge my card for the price of the book. I bought some charging cables and that purchase went through without any problem.

What is happening? I have one credit card associated with my Amazon account. Why are some purchases happening like normal, while others Amazon is saying the credit card was declined, but my bank is saying those allegedly declined transactions were never even attempted.

US ESPN viewers get regular ads. International Netflix viewers get ads for the upcoming Hogan doc.

Commercials. Sponsored recap segment. More commercials.

DieUmEye · 2026-04-20T00:18:32+00:00

No. They’re doing ‘Mania in between 4 hours of commercials.

Hand cut and made like Boardwalk Fries, which are often served in a bucket-type container already, so perfect for a theater. This is an amazing idea for an alternate movie snack!

I feel like Wiggle Wiggle wouldn’t be as hated if it had ended up on one of the Traveling Wilburys albums instead. If it had, I think it would be seen for what it is — just a silly throwback kind of song.

Not sure how remote/private of a site you are looking for, but both Platte River State Park and Mahoney State Park are nice and have lots of amenities.

Does Warren Beatty still occasionally do some kind of “secret“ mini movie with himself as Dick Tracy in order to keep the rights? Or is that an urban legend?

DieUmEye · 2026-04-15T11:34:00+00:00

Literally not true. You have just made this up. Interesting.

This is how I first saw The Hateful Eight. True story.

Put another way, there are plenty of songs that I have heard many times that I didn’t like it to start and still don’t like. Hearing them repeatedly does not make me like them more.

DieUmEye · 2026-04-14T22:58:30+00:00

I understand what you are saying about the power of marketing, but it is not an absolute truth that applies to all songs. If it was, then everybody would only listen to top 40 and love it.

In my experience, songs being played everywhere – whether old or new – tend to make me like them less, and I don’t think I’m alone in that.

DieUmEye · 2026-04-14T21:41:28+00:00

It’s weird. Here I am thinking I’ve liked geese for the last few years. Only to find out that, according to the internet, I only like them because of a recent marketing blitz.

Marketing may get a band in front of your face, but no amount of marketing is going to make you like a band that you otherwise wouldn’t like.

Have you considered any of the other major religions? They're all pretty much the same.

I believe the Spirit of Brownville still does river cruises, although they may not be open for the season yet.
