<p>I have been coming to Neligh since I was a babe in arms in 1927. I visited my grandparents there and when my parents inherited the house at 201Main Street, I brought my family there to visit their grandparents.When the opportunity came to use my grandparents’ home for a Bed and Breakfast, it seemed a good way to honor my Grandparents, the Thissens.As I encountered friends in my sojourn there, it became apparent I could write a little column for the Neligh News and Leader about persons who had known my grandparents, Harry and Lizzie Thissen and also my parents, Dan and Katie Schmidt. So, Thissen Tales was born, and for nearly twenty years it appeared in the paper.My dream to have this collection all in one cover has been realized. There are many friends who were a part of my journey who are subjects inthese articles, not to mention all the other friends who made my part-time life there so meaningful.</p>

<p>In people or in art, according to Dr. Mark Manhart, "You may not like nor understand everything you see, but at least you will have a truer view of all that went into making the man or the artwork." This biographical memoir takes the reader through all of his different lives – his "open life" and his "secret life". Manhart's professional side finds him a highly trained dentist who is actively engaged in developing new treatments and therapies. His inner passion, which keeps him charged, is his involvement in theatre as a playwright, director, and sometimes an actor.</p>

Nebraskans love to vigorously debate who we are—starting with our state slogans: “The Good Life” to the newer “Nebraska Nice.” We joke about the phallic shape of our capitol building over lattes, defend the scent of western Nebraska’s ranches as the “smell of money,” and engage our radio talk-show hosts in intense discussions about what image should represent us on our license plates—cougars, elephants, or meadowlarks. Nebraskans are ranchers and farmers, soldiers and officers, inventors and entrepreneurs, laborers and winemakers, world travelers and homebodies, artists and writers.This Misbehaving Nebraskans collection is not the neat and tidy version of us. It’s gritty, authentic, painful, poignant, thoughtful, and honest. Creative Nebraskans from high school age to the seasoned (don’t call us old), and everywhere in between sent in their submissions, and selected judges had the honor of feasting on the entries like vultures at a roadkill buffet. We saved the tastiest morsels for you. Enjoy!
