A New Week and Updates

If one breaks the law one usually goes to jail, especially if one fraudulently misused taxpayer money to the tune of $75,000. Golf trips by UNM employees on the public's dime is wrong. Not to mention the fraud that they perpetrated by saying is was a basketball tournament in Ireland. Bad. Very Bad!

The Southside Santa Fe Library Celebration

I remember when the Southside Library in Santa Fe opened 10 years ago. I will confess, I went there to see the huge and wonderful sculpture that hangs in the front. I have been there many times since and it is a great addition to the community and to the Santa Fe Library collection. There is a celebration of the Library on May 20 and a kick-off of the popular Summer Reading Program.

Instead of me trying to reform the words, my friend Pat Hodapp has said it all in her Press Release about the event. Read it! Also, we have the two pieces of art from Ricardo Caté. At the moment he is one of my favorite artists for his humor. He is also very Santa Fe.

The Soda Tax Lost!

The public is getting tired of being told what we want and what is good for us. Maybe politicians should ask us before they jump off on some tangent. Case in point — the failed sugar tax!

New Mexico Dept. of Education teaches kids bad science and bad geography! Saguaro cactus do NOT exist naturally in New Mexico. Maybe they should rethink what books they give to kids free.

We Put Our Children First – Really?

Archdiocese has put up a smokescreen on the Soda tax effort. It is distasteful at best and just plain stupid at its worst.
