Wow, Ron -- how about taking the time and effort to write a column about what you mentioned in your weak defense above? Any first-year journalism student could have produced the garbage you wrote about Omaha. I'm not sure which is more pathetic -- what you wrote or the fact that an editor actually ACCEPTED what you wrote and allowed it to ultimately be published.
Omaha, is certainly no Vegas, but it has so much more to offer than the lame assessment you provided. Feel free to step away from the laptop the next time you are assigned somewhere outside of Nevada and take in some of what the city REALLY has to offer. The items you mentioned in your defense in the comment section doesn't even BEGIN to scratch the surface of what Omaha has to offer.
And if you can't do that -- ask to be assigned to a copy desk. Lazy journalists like you shouldn't be allowed outside the city limits to represent the newspaper you work for.

Ron, you're always welcome in Omaha. Just leave the computer and notepad home the next time you come...
