On my trip last week I stopped to see my cousin just outside of Lincoln, NE. While we were outside his house talking I noticed a combine harvesting corn across the road. My cousin said it was Larry the cable guy's cornfield. While we were talking they "got er done".

According to his bio on Yahoo, Dan Whitney (aka Larry the Cable Guy) grew up on a pig farm near Pawnee City, Nebraska. I know he lives somewhere near Walton, NE (a little burg just east of Lincoln) and according to my Lancaster County Plat Map a Daniel Whitney owns 136 acres in Stevens Creek Township.

S.E. Nebraskans may take some comfort in the fact that more miles separate them from where Allan lives, than separate them from the Texas Panhandle. No offense please Allen , we know you are harmless and I think we all need to pay more attention to Geography.

An owner-partner at Humbolt Implement, another Larry, says that he went to church where the Cabal Guy’s father was the minister. The O-P was 5-6 years older and knew Larry as someone who as a kid, was full of the dickens and had a lot to say. O-P Larry uses “Get Her Done” a lot. We the people, who come from S.E. Nebraska usually do not cut a very wide swath and revel in it a little when someone else does. Harold Lloyd may have been the last one prior to Larry; he was a movie star before the talkies came along.

Harold Lloyd was hilarious and did some amazing stunts (no stunt double). Not many people know that he was missing some fingers on one of his hands, but wore a cosmetic prosthesis in his movies. It makes that "hanging from the clock tower" scene all the more amazing when you realize he did it with several missing fingers.

I'm probably wrong on this, but wasn't Johnny Carson from Nebraska?

Johnny Carson was actually born in Corning, Iowa, but grew up in Nebraska.

Ah, well....at least the Cornhusker state can always claim the world famous Allan!
