So, my inbox is stuffed with offers on Viagra, Cialis, Whatever. Leave it to the stupid 'boomers.
They took the comma out of sex drugs and rock and roll.

Before there were web logs there were diaries, journals, and memoirs. Midland Passages is a narrative of life shaped in the small towns of the American heartland. "I'm bound away 'cross the wide Missouri."
Our Current Feature
Little Remembrances; or Eye-Witness oral history.
Previous Memoirs
The Antarctic Journal of a Young Man (1975) by S. A. McCormick begins on December 16, 2006.
Loose Ends (1929-1959) by K.A. McCormick begins on April 13, 2007.
Life Sketch (1863-1902) by H.A. McCormick, Sr. begins on April 29, 2007.
Excerpts from the 1918 Wynot Tribune begin on June 2, 2007. The Wynot Tribune was published by H.A. McCormick, Sr.
Under One Roof is a father and son comparison of the same small town events as viewed from both sides of the generation gap. It begins on September 15, 2007.
Auburn and Nemaha County, Soicial and Economic Trends, 1960-2003 begins on August 10, 2008. This is original research by Ken McCormick on the recent economic history of small-town Auburn, the county seat of Nemaha County, Nebraska. Although it is strictly the effort of an amateur historian (not being peer-reviewed or anything), Mr. McCormick's analysis and conclusions stand on their own merit.
The Prairie Curmudgeon. Having finally run out of material about small towns in the Midlands, I am temporarily forced to publish crusty, ill-tempered opinions of old men.
Eduard of Nemaha, a Comedy in Five Acts. This play was begun in 1973. Nemaha and Peru are two small towns in southeast Nebraska. For those of you who have perused The Antarctic Journal of a Young Man, you have already met Debrushka.
Richard M. Nixon, a Play in Five Acts
This play was concieved in 1973. It is an impression of the great tapestry of news and history as perceieved from the distance of a small town in the Midlands.

It is a bummer. I like to read your site, however. Sometimes it is hard to understand what the message is all about, but it is good to know people still write. Perhaps a posting explaining some of the teasures within. That would be great.
Another fine blog, by a person who can still write, is siouxlandobserver.blogspot.com.
