Please ban fireworks for yourself

2011-06-28T23:12:00.000-06:00

Please New Mexicans - no fireworks this year! That would also go for people in other dry states such as AZ, CO and TX. If you really must see fireworks go to one of the public events or drive to one of the many fires and watch the pine trees explode. If you already bought some, save them for New Years, a birthday party or something that occurs sometime when it isn't so dry. Thank you.

Most of Sandia Mountains off limits beginning Monday

What? I recall a few areas being closed before due to fire danger, but not what sounds like most of the picnic areas and hiking trails.

NM school's coyote hunt draws protest

2010-11-21T21:47:00.001-07:00

This is really disgusting! I had no idea it was even legal to hunt coyotes and I can't imagine why anyone would want to do it.

Balloon Fiesta

2010-10-09T22:38:00.001-06:00

As most of you know, I am not up early enough to attend Balloon Fiesta. I stole all these photos from local weatherman Steve Stucker's facebook page. I don't think he will mind. They are all wonderful, but I especially love that Carmen Miranda one!

State Fair CFO arrested for DWI

2010-09-14T18:15:00.000-06:00

Is this the same idiot that decided to keep the fair closed on Mondays and Tuesdays?

KOB.com - State Fair CFO arrested for DWI

Come and enjoy the Fair, except on Monday or Tuesday

2010-09-14T02:54:00.000-06:00

You all know that I mostly put up with most of the stupid ideas that come up in the state of NM. However, closing the State Fair on Mondays and Tuesdays is even beyond that normal stupidness. It is suppose to be a "cost cutting measure." I have no clue how they figure that. I almost always go to the fair on a Monday or Tuesday, yes, to avoid the crowds, but just because it is slightly less crowded doesn't mean there were not alway plenty of people there. I have no way to prove it, but I would imagine there were more than enough people there to cover labor and other expenses. Besides that, who ever heard of a State Fair being closed on Mondays and Tuesdays? - totally ridiculous. Has there ever been a year that the Fair didn't make a profit? I don't think so, but if there is - it will be this year.

Commission considers increasing bear, cougar limits

2010-09-06T01:40:00.000-06:00

Yes, increase it even though there is no evidence that there are any more bears or cougars than last year. More are coming in contact with people, but that just may be because it is a bad year for their food supply.
