Comments on: Nebraska sucks less than you might think http://tonx.org/archives/127 Thu, 04 Dec 2008 04:26:26 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.2.3 By: Jr http://tonx.org/archives/127#comment-106028 Jr Tue, 25 Nov 2008 03:18:11 +0000 http://tonx.org/archives/127#comment-106028 I spent three months in Lincoln Nebraska and it was a terrible experience. It seemed that most of the people that I met were extremely ignorant. The funny thing is that they don't have southern accents, so it is a bit deceiving. It takes a little longer to realize that something is wrong. There are only 2 million people in the whole state and there's a good reason for that. The best and brightest flee as soon as they can. Not all the wonderful coffee in the world is worth dealing with such profound ignorance. I spent three months in Lincoln Nebraska and it was a terrible experience.

Thu, 13 Mar 2008 22:38:14 +0000 http://tonx.org/archives/127#comment-91988 I just read the previous comment about this "police state" and I just wanted to make it clear that I (Jon F.) didn't leave this comment, and it sounds like 'Jon X' was pulled over on I-80 (the major interstate across the U.S.). A ticket sucks no matter which state you speed through, and it also has nothing to do with coffee, so why post the insult here?

Nebraska is a police state where you can't wipe your ass without getting pulled over. The state patrol is the worst; all they give a shit about is generating revenue. I think they need to change there saying from "to protect and serve" to "harass and molest." All Nebraska State Troopers are ASS HOLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nebraska Sucks period!

My step-daughter and her fiance live a few blocks from the original Stumptown in Portland, and I think Jon's work at Cultiva is a least the equal of what Stumptown has to offer. He coaxes some amazing, varietal flavors from his beans. It's always a treat to see what he has roasted. I’ve become a regular patron of Cultiva over the past several months.

I've been mournfully ancitipating the drought of good espresso that comes with my end-of-year holiday trip back to Nebraska (I'm so spoiled to live near Ritual in SF.) Thanks for the pointer and fascinating link to coffee in my hometown. I will have to check this place out!

I am from the inland Northwest (Spokane, WA) and had really been missing some supreme beans. Cultiva has them! My daughter and I head to Cultiva whenever we can. Thanks for the good vibes on Nebraska, too. I really dig it here! Those of us who live in Lincoln, NE are fortunate to enjoy Jon’s passion for coffee.
