Consequences of the JLo Goose Jacket craze

Image
The Negro woman with the high bun peacock looking haircut had just entered  the clothing store  Giblees in Danvers, Massachusetts. Her goal on this particular day was to bum rush her way pass store employes after stealing an expensive Canada Goose jacket. On other days, I am sure she spent her time casing joints she was going to rip off in her high end SUV get away car. National news footage showed her moving in rhythm to her famous gangsta music before she tore the pricey jacket from the rack and tried to force her way out of the store where she was confronted by loyal employees who almost knocked this BIG SISTA over with her heisted merchandise. So what could this Negro female(characteristic flared nostrils) burglar have been thinking? Didn't she know she would be on the stores video surveillance which would replay on all three major TV networks? I read on a forum that authorities know her name and plan on releasing the lowlife's identity after double checking. I am

Who Left 2003 Chevy Monte Carlo Running at Convenience Store

Close to Midnight some trusting soul left their vehicle running as they went inside to grab some smokes and a six pack at a convenience store in Roswell New Mexico United States of America. 18 year old Anthony Castaneda noticed this display of ignorance and was charged with the unlawful taking of a silver 2003 Chevy Monte Carlo. Tony is no model citizen having six traffic-related violations on his criminal record. So what would possess Tony to do something so obviously stupid. Many criminals are very intelligent and usually have a plant. My guess is that Castaneda had a chop shop in mind.He probably was going to take the ripped off vehicle to a business which would  disassemble it and sell its parts.  OR maybe he was a meth head who was behaving irrationally thinking he could actually get away with it, by evading police officers, despite the 500 block of West McGaffey Street Allsup's video surveillance!

Subtle Attack on Credit Card Deadbeats

Image
Before we get started here, If you are a credit card Deadbeat that is a GOOD THING!! Gosh, I would love to hear what Julia Kagan thought about this latest gimmick promoted by American Express called Plan It which apparently is copyrighted by the credit card behemoth. According to industry parlance, a Deadbeat is an informal, rather rude, term for customer who pays off his or her balance in full and on time every month, avoiding the burden to pay off interest that would have accrued on their accounts. Note Deadbeats also do not get saddled with late fees! So, I am trying to figure out what this Plan It thing is. Amex markets it by calling it a way to "Create a plan for life's big moments", but it sounds like PAYMENT SYSTEM WITHIN ANOTHER PAYMENT SYSTEM. There is no additional interest charges, but a fixed fee for each one of these Plans you Build for charges you may not be able to financially handle in a particular billing cycle. A common example, would be someone

We all have to sell out a little to get the Life we Want

Just read an opinion column written by Newt's daughter lamenting the frequent disrespect of God's grace that Americans see on a daily basis. She has her head buried in the sand if she believes intelligent discerning citizens see her as a moral beacon or compass! Her work history includes a corporate finance stint where she was the chief financial planner for Bell South Cellular, a  $3 billion wireless company. Not a particularly spiritually edifying occupation. Jackie Cushman, at least, realized she was selling her soul to the profitability of corporate America.  So she got behind the pulpit and denounced Whoopi Goldberg and John McCain's daughter for getting into a verbal fight on national TV. Comon Miss Gingrich!, they are creating fake controversy to drive up the number of viewers so the commercial advertisers will pay more for ad spots!  Does that sound familiar? Remind you of your corporate profit mercenary days at Bell South? They have both sold out to corporate i

Nobody Deserves to get SWATTED

The scofflaws that that swatted the home of author  Ijeoma Oluo should be punished harshly for wasting valuable law enforcement resources. In case you did not know, to swat someone's residence means to communicate a false report to the police which was an alleged double murder at Oluo's domicile where her teenage son was home alone. No mother should have endure the extreme anxiety and fear the activist Black woman experienced that day. Now that all the "due respect" is out of the way, Miss Oluo makes a living selling books positing the United States of America is a white supremacist country. So she produces significant income writing about a false assumption which will piss off a few people along the away leading to the recent highly illegal prank played on her. She confuses the existence of some white supremacist citizens with the erroneous labeling of the ENTIRE country as being white supremacist. She also refuses to acknowledge that well over 90% of white poli

Med Students organize Photo Opportunity at a Slave Plantation

A Black medical student has obviously been lost in space for the last 3 or 4 years. Russell Ledet didn't seem to be aware that respect for Doctors has declined significantly during this period. Ledet organized a photo op of around 12 black medical students attired in the once respected iconic doctor image of white coats while assembling at the former slave housing of  a Cajun plantation.  Ledet then arrogantly declared that his group of in medical school debt Negros "are our ancestors' wildest dreams". Would his admiring slave ancestors have known how many people cheat their way through Med School or do not even know what the units of a blood pressure reading are? The majority of physicians these days are prostitutes to blood tests and insurance companies. They do NOT do any real "doctoring". They are mere legal drug pushers with no more intelligence than a custodian or skilled laborer. Ledet's own commentary in NBC interview was not articulate or

I still love my Flirting Husband

So, I recently self-diagnosed myself as somebody who has to watch her blood sugar. My A1C was 5.9%(percentage of red blood cells hemoglobin coated with sugar/glucose) which was not down quite enough after the usual gestational diabetes during our fourth pregnancy(Only three children due to skateboard induced miscarriage-hell getting blood stains off sidewalk). Fasting glucose averages around 109 milligrams per deciliter, but before meal readings average close to 96. I am sure dietician Ben Tzeel would concur that I am not diabetic. This means my pancreas is still making its own insulin and don't have to take Metformin(no thanks to nausea and upset stomachs!!) Again no doctor required who would charge $250 even after insurance for bloodwork I can do myself. I CAN conclusively answer question about button batteries required for ACU CHEK Guide Glucometer. The literature with the device states that ONLY the button cell CR2032 can be used. THIS IS FALSE! Hubby, probably because he w

Tooth Picks in the Keyhole and Grass Brownies

So the addict and drug dealer played by Al Pacino sneaks into the hospital after visiting hours have ended, and makes friends with an artist/addict named Helen. She was trying to rehab, but was spending a lot of time with the affable addict who was still using and selling injectable addictive substances like heroin. The movie about Needle Park in NYC was a little too lax about the dangers of addiction featuring way too many scenes showing off Pacino's handsomely infectious smile. One scene involved a druggie burglar who bragged about putting toothpicks in Apartment door locks so the thief could hear the tenant entering, giving the substance abuser a chance to get away with stolen goods that would help him support his life threatening habit. From a Movie Review perspective, I wonder if book author James Mills intended for the film to have such a laid back and mellow message to young viewers who might be battling alcohol and drug dependency?  The EVERYTHING IS OK ideology work

Seals and Crofts Lyrics connects to Gun Violence

Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the Jasmine in my mind December 13, 2019 was another ignominious day in the seat of Chaves County,NM whose economy hopelessly depends on state spending at a Military School and a dairy entity that is the most prolific mozzarella cheese manufacturer in the entire world. There is some accounting work done for booming petroleum industry in West Texas, but overall very few decent jobs. This seat is a North Side South Side divided town, with much of the gun violence happening in the southeast region of town much like its neighbor to the North Albuquerque. Miss Martinez, age 29, was gunned down by a felon boyfriend in the 200 block of east Deming which is just barely located in that crime-infested part of town. This felon, Jimmy Aragon, was arrested for killing her and tampering with evidence. The death sentence would prevent Aragon from doing it again to some other trusting soul looking for love. She was a good mother who would rat

The Thorny Problem of Inclusion Regarding Special needs Children

Back in 1994, a principled gentlemen named Tornillo had the guts to state that having retarded kids in the same classrooms as normally developed students was not a good idea. The Florida Education President spoke the truth then and it is still true that the normal/regular student have their education disrupted because of the flawed notion of inclusion. The AFT in West Virginia conducted a poll that revealed 87% of the educators strongly believing that non retarded students will experience and inferior education if their classroom has to service special needs and special education students.They observed that kids with disabilities are monopolizing the time of stressed out teachers and utilizing an inordinate amount of resources to the detriment of the normal kids. Some instances of physical confrontations were reported when the parents of retarded offspring were over demanding with school staff and principal. A special education director in Roswell, New Mexico is caught right in t

Medical Professional Melancholy

I could sense the burnout my doctor was experiencing as he went over the results of my blood work during our last visit. He honestly admits to his patients that insurance companies pretty much dictate the words that come out of his mouth regarding potential treatments and medications. He can not help his patients the way he wants to. Blue Cross Blue Shield only pays for Triglyceride test every other 3 month visit for example. So a previous visit to my overworked and slightly depressed physician revealed a 175 Triglyceride level which is a little high, but the new blood panel did not even include a new Triglyceride level reading. This means after waiting 3 months to see if my dietary changes had helped, I have wait another 3 months!!!! The doctor did not inform me that the Tri reading was not on the printout. I only discovered this after I went home and noticed it was missing. I called doctor's office and, of course, could not speak with him when his assistant told me of the n

VP consolidation goal of creating better student Experience

The president at a community college in southeastern New Mexico is recommending a personnel change to "improve student outcomes". This change involves turning two vice presidents into a single VP which will remove one salary and expensive health care benefits from the University Budget, but REMEMBER this is all about improving completion and persistence and STUDENT OUTCOMES. It has nothing to do with the fact that more money will be freed up to increase salaries of other employees including the the high man on the totem pole. In fact, President Shawn Powell said the whole thing was planned by the employees and would not lead to the firing of any workers. In this age of work place violence, any removal of high paying positions has to be considered carefully and appropriate security measures taken when that pink slip comes. So that must mean that neither the vice president of academic affairs nor the VP of student affairs will be terminated. One of them will be wearing a n

Physics Tutoring as it relates to first surviving group of baby girl quintuplets in the USA

Image
So High School Physics is damn hard stuff. The fact that some League City Texas folks rented out some retail space called the Tutoring Club is proof of this. The picture you see below was taken on a rainy day during Thanksgiving Holidays. My daughter just wanted to be in the same town as Hunk Adam Busby(of Hazel Basal fame!). She saw no signs of the five little girls so we departed to the Kemah Boardwalk.hoping to find the quints there, but no such luck. We tried calling the Tutoring Club phone number 281 3380327 for some help with kinematic equations in two variables, inertia, inclined plane vector problems, F=ma Force equals mass times acceleration, coefficient of friction, normal force, acceleration due to gravity, and Newtons which I always thought were tasty cookies.  My question is this joint just a club or do they actually charge an hourly fee for their services? If you could comment, I would gladly send you some tutoring business!!

Tortured online gaming souls.

Hi, I am reaching out to the community of online gamers to determine the well being of an online chess player who goes by the name of Brian Rugg when he plays. May not be his real name , but he gets really angry when he loses and disconnects which results in a forfeited game. I know for a fact it is  not the realtor or real estate agent broker who serves the vibrant Sun City Texas community. The gentlemen who can't control his temper and is a sore loser faces serious anger management issues and I could hook him up with some mental health professionals who could help diffuse his pent up frustration and anxiety. There fees for first time customers are more the reasonable. So please help me to help this poor tormented soul who could use some spiritual edification. The holiday season is known to be a tough time for many and I would like to give Brian the Gift of concern!

Filling out that CV or Resume

Did any of you read CV and Resume article written by hiring talent recruiter Gary Burnison? Mr Burnison has no concern for your personal growth objectives and emphatically states to leave them off your curriculum vitae if you want to go to work for him. Would you want to work for a guy who has no regard for your strengths and ambitions? What is sad is many young graduating college seniors, eager to find their first job, will take Gary's pontificating as the gospel truth! I do understand why the chief executive officer of Korn Ferry would eschew the following Resume career objective "Looking for an opportunity to make a difference and change the world" This is obviously the work of  some airhead with no marketable skills being overly dramatic! Do not despair over one man's opinion emerging work force. You can still LAND THE JOB the old fashioned way by letting your potential future employers know what MAKES YOU TICK by enumerating those aspirations on your Resume

Varying Property Tax Grace Periods

Paying property taxes can be a burden on home owners. Home improvements, plumber's bills, appliance replacement/repair, exterminator fees, interior decorating and the costly list continues! So just when you think you are going to be able to save some of that paycheck, here comes that quarterly or every 6 months dreaded property tax bill. Cherry Hill, NJ kindly gives its citizens a 10 day grace period without any delinquency fees or penalties. Chaves County in New Mexico has a 1% penalty PER MONTH which appears to be equivalent to a ONE MONTH GRACE period where no penalties or interest will be charged to the income challenged(poor) citizens of Roswell. The county also has a very accommodating and sympathetic Treasurer's office. So thank you Alien City for being understanding to your poor, tired, and huddled masses. Judith Lohman points out that the one month grace period that is implicit in the phrase "1% penalty PER MONTH" may not really exist in some municipalit

Boorish Adult Basketball Fans

Image
Incivility and disrespect abound these days in our nation's basketball arenas. The photograph you see below in such an example. A Clarendon, Texas Junior College basketball fan had been berating game officials all night whining and crying on almost every call that went against her team. I don't think former alumni William Clarence "Bill" Sarpalius would have condoned the behavior of this loud, high-heeled, disrespectful fanatic of her community college team. She literally screamed at officials and sometimes talked to the players on a first name basis almost as if she was the wife of the coach. So do abused referees have any recourse when dealing with obnoxious, immature adults who constantly yell at them during the game?  A fascinating article by Joe Haefner and Don Kelbick describes options that game officials have with regard to ejecting out of control fans from the game. High school official Jimmy Casas, from Seattle Washington, put up with horrible criticism

Why is Markeda Rivera getting away with such horrid behavior??

Chris Struges defends scum, like Markeda Rivera, who has spit on police officers, attempted to steal cars from Albuquerque dealership, ran over a group people in downtown area, shattered a 60 gallon aquarium, threatened a leasing agent at an apartment complex, and apparently tried to kill herself by laying down in traffic. Counselor Struges employed the feeble argument that reprobate and lowlife Rivera has never been convicted of a felony, therefore she should be presumed innocent.  Lawyer Christopher knows this is only because Duke City court and legal system  is sooooo BROKEN . Google and Apple chose not to set up shop here because of the alarming crime rate so common in liberal cities who believe in rehabilitating criminals who are incorrigible and keep killing people or driving drunk until they murder somebody with their vehicle. Read article by  Louis Casiano about Mississippi citizen Shelley Rose and vehicular homicide. Philadelphia columnist  Vinny Vella also pens multiple t

If this happened Therapist should lose license

What appears to be a former stepdad, fondled, felt-up, or sexually forced himself upon his stepdaughter. The mother of the victim said she did not report the incident to law enforcement  because a therapist she had retained indicated police would NOT believe her. The 59 year old Roswell,NM man can not be charged with incest since he is not blood related. One has to wonder if this same "professional therapist" was rendering service to the stepdad as well and was afraid of lost income if dad gets thrown in the slammer for digitally stimulating the young females. Rutilio Aguirre was taken into the custody by Chaves County Sheriff's office according to Judge Hunter, who used to work at Kraft Law Firm. Defense attorney, Debra Lautenschlager, was amenable to this outcome where it appears the 59 year old male is guilty of assaulting his former daughters. Aguirre, predictably, did not take responsibility for his deplorable conduct, blaming it on excessive alcohol consumption

Beavers and Gun Control

Image
I had no idea of the widespread prevalence of Gun Crafters or GunWorks in the great state of Texas until I stepped out of our vehicle at an extremely popular and HUGE roadside convenience store between San Antonio and Houston named Buc-ee's which appears to be named after a DAMN BEAVER. This ultra accommodating service center has more gas pumps than employees and more urinals than longhorn fans!!!!!  It's homemade sandwiches are better than Quiznos and very fairly priced. The vehicle you see below is a 4 by 4 Dodge truck purchased at Helfman Jeep by a Marine who happens to love guns. He advertised his Pitchford Limited Liability Corporation business on the back window of his truck. No surprise there! So what does this have to do with anything? It reminded me of an article I had read about an outfit in New York State, if I recall, called  782 Custom Gunworks LTD who specialize in custom firearms, reloading, parts and gunsmithing in general. When I lived up there,

With whom are you trusting your property tax payments?

What common experience does Cattle Barons Restaurant and Roswell Escrow Services(RES) share? I won't keep you in suspense. The were both victims of crooked, cheating husband wife teams. The dynamic duo Christopher Adam Jensen-Tanner and Mindy Jensen-Tanner, who were joint owners of RES, appear to be ripping off around 800 people who entrusted RES with remitting their  property tax  payments to Chaves County.  Chaves County Treasurer Charlotte Andrade said that these 800 accounts  still had to pay up on their December 10th tax bill. This means that if RES does not uphold its fiduciary capacity(steals their clients payments made in good faith), then clients will be DOUBLE PAYING their biannual(every 6 months) property tax payments!!!  Andrade is just doing her job of collecting the RISD funding tax money, BUT there are still a lot of pissed of people in the often crooked Alien City.

Major Booze producer advocates drinking Beer in the Morning

Image
Morning alcohol consumption is known to have deleterious effects on one's health and yet Coors unashamedly aired the following commercial involving black and white male bachelor roommates getting reading for 12 hours of NFL football on Sunday by drinking Coors Lite Beer for breakfast with a greasy cheesy fried egg sandwich!! I wonder what the young black and white men earned in USD for starring in a commercial that is BAD FOR YOUR HEALTH!!! Do they really booze it up early in the morning in their personal lives? Christian Amondson, writing for socialworkdegreeguide.com, writes passionately and informatively about the harm wreaked on on one's body and mental health due to excessive alcohol consumption prior to the noon meal. He focused intensively on the horrible and decimating life threatening addictions of author Carson McCullers.  Bernard Palmer wrote an absurd review of a book titled God is for the Alcoholic . It appears that author Jerry Dunn carelessly and irresponsi

Two Part Proof that Dallas Cowboys are NOT playoff caliber Team

What follows is an incontrovertible proof Cowboys will not advance past first round OR more likely NOT EVEN QUALIFY FOR NFL postseason play: 1. Jason Garrett is their coach(nuf said, but I will continue anyway): Garrett's primary contribution is playfully shoving one of his players who has just made a big play AND being completely subordinate to the egotistical whims of the selfish billionaire owner of the Cowboys. Jerry Jones fired super bowl winner Jimmy Johnson to find a milquetoast "leader" who would never contest the egomaniacal owner's wishes. Also note the Pokes acquisition of undisciplined Black player Michael Bennett further proves Cowboys cannot judge quality players with character. Bennett has jumped offsides on key downs multiple times. Veteran team players DO NOT SCREW UP LIKE HE DOES . Also no evidence of excessive force by Las Vegas police officers was ever found in the alleged police brutality case alleged by defensive lineman  Michael Bennett . 2

LIBURTON WTF

Image
This is not really a rant because it it GREAT NEWS for southeastern New Mexico for towns like Carlsbad, Artesia, Hobbs and Roswell. They are becoming like little Odessas!  The picture you see below illustrates just how fast and crowded these small towns have become. Oilfield workers are paying a lot of money to rent high end properties in areas like the Sorrento Subdivision built up by the French Brothers based in Alamogordo. Some of their properties have increased in value over 30% The "LIBURTON"  white pickup 13023317 truck you see, USDOT 126693 Houston Texas is so damn busy drilling for oil and gas that they have not had time to repaint the Halliburton logo! I just wish those builders out of Alamogordo would build more worker housing that may not be that temporary. I think it was an article by David E. Rosenbaum regarding Dick Cheney that spoke of the potential of the oil and gas reserves in the dirt poor state of NM. I know Roswell and Artesia are tickled pink ab

Ain't that the Perineum?

Image
Warehouse  talk in West Texas(Kermit, Midland, Monahans, Odessa, Andrews) during this petroleum and gas revival can be lewd, uncivilized and quite offensive. A couple of guys at a control device supply place, over their morning donut and coffee, asked a new hire if she knew the meaning of the word taint. She blushed and pretended not to know. However her reputation for oral sex was well known regarding the male G-Spot(semen producing gland). One of shipping and receiving clerks went to high school with her at Permian and said she made up for her flat chest with a deft finger stimulation of the perineum! Yes, the same perineum(taint) in the Jardiance commercial you see below. A potential side effect of this heart disease drug is a bacterial infection of the TAINT. If you must know the origin of this degrading term, it ain't your anus and is ain't your pecker/genitals! Sexy  Mélanie Berliet will have you laughing yourself silly with her impressive and humorous array of pros

Turn down that damn Jam Box

Image
The great state of Ohio prosecuted a case that many home owners tracked on the edge of their seats. The age old problem of loud and inconsiderate neighbors along with uncooperative police officers who WILL NOT TAKE action against disruptive residents even when a new born baby's sleep is at stake!!  Assistant Prosecuting Attorney John Kosko of Cuyahoga County was aware of Terrance Hough's expertise with handguns. Moreover, this same lawyer knew the irate and and pissed off home owner could not stand his scofflaw neighbors, the Feichtners who ignored Hough and his wife who were very angry at the party animal basketball players who had no regard for the peace and quiet of the neighborhood. Also Reverend Neil Walters, a venerated man of the cloth in the Cleveland area, knew patriarch Hough was at his boiling point with rage. Producer of this investigative TV program, Sasha Tolstoy, did not seem to properly empathize with a family who was fed up with the boisterous and disre

Juggling Home mortgage processors

We keep getting loan offers based on our current lender's desperate desire to profit from a high interest rate home equity loan. We took out a 4% 30 year mortgage from Pioneer Bank in Hobbs, New Mexico USA around 10 years ago. We never were late on a payment AND they decided to abandon our mortgage, apparently, because we would never apply for a home equity loan from them! We had built up about 40 thousand dollars in equity and they wanted to screw us with a 5% loan for home improvement projects which we DID NOT NEED . We ignored all their snail mail solicitations and they abruptly DROPPED OUR loan by transferring it to Lakeview Loan Servicing, LLC. This outfit was in Pennsylvania.....maybe Philadelphia also located in the United States of America. They did not make it easy for us to transfer from the bank in Hobbs, but when we finally figured it out, then the blood suckers started sending us the same home equity loan offers as Pioneer Bank had done. We did not take the bait

DisASTROS

As much as Jose Altuve has meant to the Astros franchise, he just choked big time on the most important  at bat of the 2019 season. Josh was at third base on his single and a George Springer double. Altuve steps to the plate with only one out in the inning and feebly strikes out on pitch that almost hit home plate. Either Jose did not recognize the pitch out of Strasburg's hand or selfishly swung at an offering WAY OUT OF THE STRIKE ZONE!!! Also Verlander is being way too careful when he gets a batter 0-2 in the pitch count. I know the Nats are one helluva World Series team, but Justin has become alarmingly predictable when ahead in the count throwing pitches way out of the zone and running up his pitch count! Congrats to Jordan for breaking out of his miserable batting slump against the Yankees.

Smile we are watching you walk around our house

Image
The home you see in the picture below appears to be an example of a home that was the object of an extensive statistically based study by Ackerman Security. The study conducted by one of our nations most prominent security specialists concluded that a "fake security sign" could possibly make you more of a target of burglars and home invaders since they would take more time to determine if there really were surveillance cameras installed on/in your home! This home at 114 West Mathews in Roswell New Mexico has the very common SMILE Your are on camera sign attached to the chain link fence of this $60,000 rental property which was built in 1940. The home, in the shadows of Lagrone Funeral Parlor, had a number of cars parked around it and one wonders if there is something going on within its walls that would command 100% privacy. It seems like almost weekly that meth makers, dealers, and distributors are arrested.

Don't be fooled by this Email Spoofing Entity

Do NOT be duped  livenlonpro unsolicited emails claiming that you have had a credit card application rejected. Jennifer Abel wrote about the nightmare experienced by James R Hood regarding a fake Amazon order. ScamAdviser published its opinion that the site is safe, but do not be deceived. They sent me an email about my credit card application being rejected and I HAD NOT APPLIED FOR A CREDIT CARD IN OVER 4 YEARS. Max Gannon, writing for CoFence, details how they are the classic Phishing scam. Do not download anything from them unless you enjoy having your laptop or desktop paralyzed by malware from their email spoofing algorithm!! I was not able to find the physical address of  livenlonpro  which is a strong indication they are fly by night fraudsters.

Car Washes, Skunks and Probate Attorneys

Image
What a crazy connection. My flight into Roswell NM was delayed significantly and I had some time to hang out in the city my father calls home. I found a quaint Thai Food place next door to an Auto Zone on South Main Street. A group of young Hispanics, as you can see in the above picture, were short of business operating their car wash in the north parking lot of a Auto Zone Car parts business. I found an old newspaper at car wash that I read while awaiting my call out order at Lemon Grass. An article of interest, which brought back memories of a distant but dissolved friendship, was written by a probate lawyer named Kraft if I recall. The article used the term "skunk" as a substitute for jerk or a dishonest person. The author piously cited Biblical scripture in a fashion that approached pontification. Lana  Muse and her husband Jack were quite happy according to my cousin, but somewhere their marriage took a turn for the worse. My memory fades at this point, but I belie

Dealing with People who ignore parking Laws

Image
I was reminded of the tough times residents of NYC have with rude neighbors who block their driveway and sidewalks when I saw this picture of a Roswell New Mexico sidewalk with an SUV parked square in the middle of it! The photographer was so upset that he even posted the address as 1315 Sorrento Drive.  Denise Stetler,Michael Spengler,Susie Perales  and Michael Newsome all posting on the blog authored by a sexy female named Elvia @disqus_Tcdo0OE7zr were extremely upset  regarding illegal parking issues that was not being enforced properly by NYPD. Some of the people mentioned were not actually mad about arrogant neighbors with inconsiderate parking habits, but more into how to catch them with motion detecting security cameras and siren activating alarms. Not sure if this neighborhood in the picture has an HOA, but that would be the first step before contacting police department. NYC has traffic cops in many areas which I doubt this city has in a poor state like New Mexico.

Two Studs from Tennessee

Image
It is no secret that advertising is equivalent to some form of deception. The following small town pair of newspaper advertisements seem to prove that along with the well known truth that sex sells. Roswell NM United States of America is known for its over abundance of churches and its weak labor force. Most of the qualified people are teachers, work for Leprino, or the Military School. Then there is the car and insurance salesmen. The very conniving group of jewelers is represented in the ad that you see below. The Bullock's Jeweler advertisement appears to suggest wife swapping as some advice for a stale marriage. "A married woman with two studs" next to a couple of huge diamonds. So I guess that astronomical markup causes owner and sales staff to abandon their moral compass.   Also Mr Thomas Jackson is conducting an Anxiety, Depression, and Addiction seminar in alien city. PHD Jackson state that free child care for the age range 4 to 7 was available. I guess

One Frustrated College Football Fan

Image
The decorated Texas A and M cadet you see in the picture was in the middle of uttering "What the Fuck was that?".  Cadet Efeney, part of the infamous 12th man, was upset that the Aggies of College Station had given up their short lived 7 point lead to the Crimson Tide in a nationally televised NCAA football game. Efeney was laboring under the conception that A&M actually had a chance to beat the Alabama juggernaut. He had just watched the Aggie defense miss about 4 tackles allowing the game tying touchdown.  One gets the impression the white guy believes he could play better than the Aggie defenders.  We have to forgive Trey, who is studying engineering, for his foul language which happened to to get caught by roving CBS cameras. We have all made bad decisions and mistakes we regret. Mother Amy and the city of Rockwall have a lot to be proud of.

Wizard of Oz Liens on Ones Home Equity

Dear Serhat Wizard of Oztop, We are not in any debt out outside of our home mortgage, which does not really count since we can easily sell it in the affluent neighborhood we reside. So why did you send us the Chase Bank Debt Consolidation home equity loan snail mail solicitation? I was just about to shred it, but could not resist composing this email because of that cool sounding Turkish name of yours. Were your Istanbul parents Judy Garland fans? We don't need to borrow any money for medical bills since we only give doctors whatever the insurance pays out. We had a doctor charge us $400 for a 15 minute office visit where the doctor missed a few things on the bloodwork report and seemed in a hurry. Insurance paid him $75. Do you really think we would borrow $325 from Chase to pay off such a ridiculously high rate?! Also College Tuition will soon be free so no way on that loan also. We do our own home improvements with our 6 figure income, so would appreciate it if you quit ha

The mysterious slide of Houston's lefty.

I could not feel worse for that Cajun Astro pitcher Wade Allen Miley. Miley is as kewl and laid back as they come, but he has collapsed to the point the Stros can not risk putting him on playoff roster. He has been indistinguishable from a batting practice thrower in his last 3 or 4 starts. I wish I knew what happened to Wade and wish him the very best if it is medical or personal reasons that have caused his precipitous decline in effectiveness. He is a control pitcher who the league appears to have "figured out". Sad part is that he was easily the third best pitcher on the Houston staff for MOST of the season. I also wish Andrew Gleinser has been more sensitive to Wade in his media coverage. However, Gleinser is correct in asserting that the Houston lefty can not be trusted as starter or long reliever in the post season.

One Inconvenient Bank

Image
The picture you see below is a group of potential banking victims standing in queue. They are lined up at First Convenience Bank in Roswell, New Mexico United States of America. The two females at end of line are deeply absorbed with their smart phones oblivious to the excessive fees and charges that could beset them! The marketing slogan for this bank located adjacent to Walmart checkout lines is YOUR TIME IS PRECIOUS. What that really means is that the bank will sign you up for an account real quick without disclosing how much they charge you for overdrafts etc. The only thing precious to this institution is upping their bottom line by imposing exorbitant fees on their valued customers . Oh if you don't trust my assessment, check out the many negative reviews at sitejabber: An Assistant  Manger at bank in San Antonio, TX stated the employee turnover is through the roof and Branch Manger will follow people around in store to drum up more business.  Another customer in A

Keep your Genitalia covered Boys

Having a unique uncommon name can really screw with one's sense of privacy. Those are easy searches on Google that turn up very few hits. Such is the plight of Mr Jered Alan Leatherman, of Roswell NM, who was charged with indecent exposure. The city's police blotter points out that everyone written up is presumed innocent. Also Christifer Dirickson was charged with receiving or transferring a stolen vehicle, a slightly more common crime in my humble opinion. I do hope Mr Leatherman does not approach the frequency of one Trevor Timothy Deloache in Georgia. Trevor just has HARD TIME keeping that snake in his pants!! Oh well, there is always the professional services of lawyer Ambrosio Rodriguez who specializes in defending those who partake in these illegal mating rituals. Finally, Corey Adam Deck was accused of shoplifting somewhere on South Sunset Avenue.

Don't fall for this online Bank promotion

We received the following Wells Fargo offer for a "free $400" deposit into a new checking account that would be opened by us. We were asked to set up and receive direct deposits for 3 or more consecutive months. Our direct deposits had to be 3000 dollars or more for each of those consecutive three months. We had to jump through hoops and spend around an hour on the phone removing 10 dollar monthly service fee that we were assured would NOT be imposed. Never got the $10 fee removed! So for the first two months we met the $3000 or more monthly requirement. During the third month, my wife fell ill and we only had direct deposits adding up to $2600. Wells Fargo said we fell short of "the promotional requirements of the original deal. We waited the required 45 day for the  bonus to be deposited. It NEVER happened and they never credited us for the 10 dollar service fee they said we never owed.  Don't fall for their deception!

Houston Doctor generous with his knowledge

I was impressed regarding the direct and helpful commentary on diabetes prevention reported by Rajinder Bhalla who graduated from Shri Ram College of Commerce. Doctor Bhalla emphatically states that the onset of Diabetes is not because of consumption of excess sugars/glucose. He relates it more to stunted metabolic function at night which causes the liver to overcompensate releasing more glucose into the blood stream to provide energy to wake up and start the new day! Rajinder also stresses that this dawn phenomenon, alone, is NOT dangerous with regard to contracting type 2 diabetes. Many with elevated blood sugar after fasting 8-10 hours have normal blood sugar levels during waking hours. For example a fasting blood sugar of 115 should not be a terrifying revelation as long is you are aware and managing it from a dietary and healthy amount of sleep perspective. Those in the the process of losing weight will continue to have high fasting glucose levels until the belly fat at wai

Spanish Insurance Ad sent to White Guy

Image
Grandpa used to tell me people who sell insurance can't do anything else well, so that is the profession they land in. Got an unsolicited snail mail from Brooks D. Thompson in Spanish. Problem is, I am not a Mexican. Mr Thompson resides at 100 East Linda Vista Boulevard in Roswell New Mexico. That appears to be a residential address, so Brooks musta just got his license and is trying to establish his professional reputation. This new StateFarm agent should at least check the names in his  mass mailing list to see if they are Hispanic or not don't you think? Yo no pienso este muchacha esta buen empresario.

Addict's parents should not blame others.

Debbie and Darrell Skaggs are blaming everybody but their son for his death when he asphyxiated on his vomit after overdosing on drugs and alcohol. I wonder if they plan on suing the alcoholic beverage producer for Tyler's alcoholism? Are they suggesting somebody forced him to ingest  alcohol, fentanyl and oxycodone, which in combination led to the regurgitation of his stomach contents, which ended up in his trachea leading effectively to suffocation. Tyler's addiction is nobody's responsibility but his own. Stop playing the blame game Mom and Dad and face the fact that your son had a hard time facing the world some days.

Landlord Accused of cutting off WIFI

Jancey D. Quinitchette has played the role of professional victim quite well. Back in 2006 she claimed substandard section 8 code violations. Her fear of homelessness prevented her from going public regarding black mold she claims she found in Henderson rental property. More recently she accused sexy  Elise Digraffenreidt(attractive in her soccer uniform) of being a  slumlord in  Guilford County which the elderly and famous female TV judge saw right through! Jancey, a 54 year old black woman, lost court case to her 19 year old landlord where the court TV judge determined her unpaid rent should be paid back to landlord.

Financially Desperate People Fishing Around

Image
Phishing scams are so common these days that barely merits comment. However, I wanted to clear up the names of honest people who have had their good reputations tarnished by someone named "James Johnson" who appears to be using their names in a real estate scam. Mr Johnson informed us that an offer for your property is in the preparation phase . Now that is a fancy sounding phrase that could easily dupe many. So this representative listed an address of PO Box 6606675 #31403, Dallas Texas in his unwanted email solicitation that you can see below. Looked up the address and it was not BBB accredited.  Approved reviewers Seth C and Math H believe this property inquirer entity is up to NO GOOD. As for the folks who list this PO BOX as affiliated with their businesses: Preston J Peterson, Wendy L. Marshall, Leslie Mark Griffin, Theresa Rose Weismandel, Marshal D Jerome, Laurie Suezane Griffin, David Major Griffin Junior, Michael Sitarzewski, and Ardent. Johnson appears to hav

Divorce Does not have to stop your life in its tracks

I must confess I was extremely moved by the emotional and heart felt account of mechanical engineer Jim Yancy. Jim described the difficulty associated with separating the love of his profession with the romantic love of his divorced wife. Jim effectively, although not explicitly, admits that an engineer's ego can be so inflated that he cannot have a meaningful conversation with a female who has captured his interests. The term nerd seems to emerge at every turn especially with the younger engineers. I was so interested about this topic that I decided to lurk at some professional engineer sites and found much to support my hypothesis that some engineers are so self-absorbed that it is almost impossible for them to sustain a marriage and often end up in custody battles over their kids with their ex wives. The acrimonious legal battle between Maya Eibschitz Tsimhoni and Omer Tsimhoni comes to mind where the GM chemical engineer was accused of parental alienation. Also, Leslie

Small Town Bank struggling with desperate snail mail solicitations.

Image
Pioneer Bank in Roswell, New Mexico United States of America has had many marketing slogans ranging from "An Old Friend" to "Our Neighbor". We had a 30 year 4.1% mortgage with them which was recently terminated for reasons they did not disclose. We paid our monthly payment on time without fail, but Pioneer Bank still chose to send our mortgage to another loan processor. They brag about "serving our community for 118 years", but they don't serve anybody that is not profitable to them. Their desperation is evident as you can see in the snail mail solicitation below where they are giving away a Prodyne Fruit Infusion Pitcher. They also offer a completely free checking account. WOW how progressive can you be in an era where all checking has been completely free for the last 10 years! Our realtor assured us that our home town bank would take care of us. Why wouldn't we be reassured by professions as honorable at real estate agents and banking?  P

RoboCall Suicide

Anybody who has been irritated late at night by automated phone calling bots(aka robocalls) is probably familiar with the tragic plight of 82 year old Marjorie Jones. She killed herself after a fraudulent robocall stole her life savings!! Her granddaughter, Angela Stancik, spoke of the momentous and depressing effect this had on all who  loved and lost the precious member of their family. Grandma was spoofed by the scummy elder preying  criminals who made the call look like someone on her contact list. Some scam robocalls these days are rigged to make it look like they originate at a hospital. For example, patients waiting on the results of cancer tests, etc.  The vulnerable person is then more susceptible to having  sensitive personal and financial information stolen from them!

Dogmatic Religious Nonsense

YO, there is a cat in Southeastern New Mexico named Russell A. Scott. The dude is hopelessly religious. Actually believes a man was dead for 3 days and then came back to life to save all humanity from ruinous conditions. I'll forgive him for that. 85% of the world's sheep like population believes in some kind of loving supernatural being. So Mr Scott wrote an officious letter to the editor of the Carlsbad Newspaper(may have been Artesia or Roswell; you can Google his name to find out if it matters to you). Old man Scott was criticizing another letter writer that he did not name.(Probably could not remember the name) Russell vehemently insisted said writer should inform the reader that his views were only opinions. Good God Almighty Mr Scott! So the tripe you spew is something other than feeble minded opinions of an insular Bible Thumper?!?! You hide behind pedantic definitions of words like refugee to support your tenuous arguments. When will you learn that the truly bright

Competitive Field of Employee Recruiting

Richard Moy wrote a piece that distinguished between a head hunter and recruiter which matched up with my personal experience of dealing with a talent manager out of Farmington New Mexico. She was aggressive and NOT opposed to wearing tight skirts and other clothing elements that prominently displayed her jaw dropping cleavage! She made a huge 30% of your first year's salary as a commission for placing you with potential employers. I could sense her extreme disappointment when I rejected her recruiting efforts and remained with my then employer. I was reminded of this when a colleague shared a story about James Seay of Becker Wright Consultants. James was trying to recruit my buddy's daughter and she took the position. As far as I know everything worked out and she is very happy with the move that resulted in a salary and bonus increase along with a much prettier location to live. My friend was impressed with the professionalism of Mr Seay who was never overbearing or press

Artificial Turf Toe Stub

What possible connection could exist between the UFO capital of the world and 2nd tier commentator Christopher Brauchli?  Chris writes extensively about the racism component of Nazism. The reason the Common Dreams writer is not on the first tier of political observers is that he believes our commander and chief is a Nazi Fascist. Now for the connection to Roswell. Orlando Padilla, a well respected retired educator of 30 years in RISD, accuses the female superintendent of keeping removed stadium artificial turf to herself! Padilla stated, at a school board meeting, that Dr Mcllroy should have given the worn-out turf to other schools in the district rather than storing it at her residence and "then distributing it as she saw fit". These are certainly damning allegations if true. The superintendent is White and the man who is making the allegations is Brown. There are many Hispanic teachers who believe her restructuring was racially based rather than merit based. According t

A TIP for what at this sandwich shop?

I have to disagree partially with the review of Tammy Bahtina-Fox N.  of Subway sandwich shop in Roswell NM located out on West Second on the way to Ruidoso. A polite Hispanic kid waited on us and did a marvelous job, but they were out of ingredients that you would expect a national franchise to have. No Italian Herbs bread, NO UNSWEET TEA. We walked out because my wife's diabetes demands portion control to prevent blood sugar spikes. Also another irritant last time we were there is how the credit card machine will prompt you for the amount of a tip. This is ridiculous. It is not like this is restaurant where you sit down and are taken care of by a wait staff. The owner of this Subway should realize this is too desperate, close to begging for unearned money. It is almost like the mass mail mentality trolling for a few financial hits and adding extra time to complete a transaction in a fast food place.

Different Kinds of Human Predators

I doubt the irony of attorney Lisa Bloom's tweet escaped discerning readers. I would prefer that Lisa be a full-time vegetarian converter. A much more honest and humanitarian gesture than the legal predation practiced by lawyers who only defend clients going after rich criminals. AND there is no doubt that the recent "suicide" Epstein was a criminal who did not deserve to breathe the air on this planet. Lawyer Bloom's microblog went something like Predator J. Epstein hung himself while incarcerated.   As the legal representative of three victims, we are pissed he did not live long enough to let us collect astronomical pain and suffering monetary damages. Lisa will still sue his estate, BUT a much smaller piece of the financial pie will be available. Aw heck 35%  5 million versus 10 million dollars is still quite the pay wouldn't you admit counselor? I seem to remember her doing relatively honest legal work for the NYC Goldberg law firm. I guess we all sell o

I am addicted to dem PILLs, but they are addicted to dat MONEY

Dear Jason Boyd, By your own admission, you became addicted to painkillers at young age. Whose fault was that? Your parents, your friends at school, or perhaps YOUR FAULT ALONE . I get that southwest Virginia might be boring as hell. So you got addicted to opioids, ended up having four kids when you were not even capable of taking care of yourself. Working at McDonald's NOT  gonna get it done boy if you want to raise a large family. Then it came to you. I CAN BLAME MY ADDICTION ON THE PEOPLE THAT MANUFACTURE the drugs and Oxycontin. You even tried to reinvent the definition of murder, rather than being an accountable man. Yeah, I listened to that ignorant sounding country bumpkin recording of yours on the Washington Post Website. People may feel sorry for ya up north Jason. All those out of touch liberals in DC, but don't show your face down south in places like Texas and Arizona. And, please don't have any more kids dude.

That Much Dreaded Cards Enclosed Snail Mail

Image
Below you will see what has become an incessant delivery in many American's Snail Mail Box. You know, it is the CARDS ENCLOSED envelope when one has not ordered any cards. Do you need any further build up or do you already know I am referring to AARP cards that you are forced to dispose of to avoid having your identity compromised by dumpster divers! Thank God all the electric paper shredders have a credit card or plastic card industrial strength shredder included at no cost. Just for the record AARP stands for the American Association of Retired Persons.We are proof that AARP sends their junk mail to people who are not that close to retirement age. I would ask CEO Jo Ann Jenkins to tell us why we get one of these bulk mail solicitations approximately every month? Smart Phones, New Cars, Credit Cards already give you essentially free road side assistance. Please let close to retirement folks know what distinguishes AARP from other services in the space? At least what

Tattos and Erudite Cafes

We dined at a place in south west New Mexico named Latitude 33 where many of the attractive young waitresses had tattoos. I was raised in an era where this type of "body art" was frowned upon as unbecoming and disease causing. This is no indictment of the quality of the restaurant in Truth or Consequences. To the contrary, the food, ambience and service was astounding at this cafe founded by a guy who wrote about his experiences at venues on or near the 33rd latitude! The experience reminded me of an article written by SONJA GARZA of the San Antonio Texas Express-news. Sonja detailed the services of a Bandera doctor who removed tattoos in a derelict feed store on the property of the Chukka Creek Ranch. Miss Garza characterized the service as helping young people remove thoughtless mistakes made in the past.             Dr. Tolbert Wilkinson in conjunction with the police department provided the $50 service. One humorous account describes a man who could not tolerate the t

Buzz About Mass Murders ripple through El Paso restaurant

Image
The woman with the beautiful flowing grey hair was quietly alarmed over the actions of a Texas murderer who hated Mexicans and drove three hours to an El Paso Texas Walmart to shoot and kill 19 Hispanic/Mexicans. She was scanning her smart phone and talking with her face down to her partner sitting across from her at the well known Tasty Kabob restaurant. In her firm, but sotto voce tone, she adamantly was against the major TV news networks even mentioning the name of the mass murdering head cases who are in the news weekly for slaughtering hard working law-abiding USA citizens. The Grandmotherly figure also highly criticized those who blame the alleged racism of US President Donald Trump for all the mall and school killings. My personal thanks to soldier Glendon Oakley Jr. for jeopardizing his own safety to save the lives of others. On a lesser note, profuse personal thanks to food critic Claudia "Ninja" M. for turning us on to the TripleD eating establishment.

Let Technology call Balls and Strikes in MLB games

Major League Baseball has a reputation, among some of the uninformed, for being too long which leads to boredom. The Home Plate umpire, Chris Segal, in the Indian/Astro game on July 31, 2019, perpetuates that reputation. Urquidy, who is a strike zone placement specialist, was getting squeezed hard by HP umpire most of the night. Segal's strike zone was the size of thimble according to a Cleveland Radio commentator( Tom Hamilton and Jim Rosenhaus) who stated the final score of the game would be 10-9 if Segal called a "in the black pitch NOT a strike" type of game! He was not far from the truth in a game where the Stros lost 10-4. BTW, I love the aggressively critical comments of the radio guys who see to have more liberty to denounce a poorly officiated game.

The Land of Manana

I always thought that any enterprise or place of business that had the name of the county as part of its name would be an upstanding and efficient operation. I leaned differently when dealing with  Chaves County Door and Supply Roswell New Mexico. We spend almost our entire Summer there looking after our rental properties and being Grandparents for my wife's vacationing daughter and her family. About a week ago we needed some upgrades on our metal doors and frames for multiple dwellings. Spoke with a friendly lady named Nancy who wrote down our information and assured us she would get back with us early next day. We had not heard from her by noon. We decided that was not a good sign reasoning that if she did not have time to call us back, then the rest of the experience would be slow and unacceptable. We went to ACE hardware and got everything we needed for very reasonable prices. I can only conclude the county named door business did not care or is making more money from bi

Some DISH TV Fine Print You Should be Aware of

Frustration levels are extremely high regarding the Blackouts of Major League Baseball all over the place in the USA. Arizonans can't watch the Diamond Backs, Coloradans can't watch the Rockies live unless they pay for exorbitantly priced Direct TV or DISH sports packages. MLB.TV is a low price solution to this headache if you are willing to watch an archived game 90 minutes after the conclusion of the live game. So I was ecstatic when I found that DISH TV carries MLB.TV. I paid for it and prepared to watch the 90 minute delayed version of my beloved Diamond Backs.  WRONG.....they charge you, but then do not give you the option to watch the archived version of the game for black out games. So what in the hell am I paying for DISH management?!!! The customer service representative said that I should have read the disclosure printed at web site indicating that archived version of blacked out games are NOT PART OF THE DEAL!  I almost feel sorry for them that they have to res

HAZMAT Truck Crash between Edgewood and Moriarty New Mexico

Image
We were headed back to Amarillo TX following a grueling chess tournament where my son did not win a game! So the picture you see below only added  to our existing frustration! As you can see in the extreme background of pic at Edgewood exit 187 on interstate 40, a city ambulance or firetruck is blocking I40 forcing everybody to take detour to Moriarty. The Swift truck driver could not be happy about the delay as well as couple from Missouri in the white Ford Escape purchased at Lutesville in Marble Hill. The cause of this extremely inconvenient turn of events was a commercial truck overturned spilling HazMat all over the freeway leading to a lengthy delay for irate motorists. So what does HazMat stand for?  HAZMAT is an abbreviation for “hazardous materials” which are things that could cause a reasonable risk to health, property, or the environment. Examples of HAZMATs include toxic chemicals, fuels, nuclear waste products, and biological, chemical, and radiological agents. So

Under Pressure Oil Field Workers Creating Hazardous Driving Conditions

We used to take Highway 285 south out of Artesia New Mexico all the way down to Fort Stockton so we would have easy stretch of interstate driving on I10 to San Antonio. NO MORE. Unsafe commercial vehicles and tired Oil Field workers have turned our family vacation into too much stress. We feel like we are risking our lives to take that stretch of beat up road in Lea County. John L. Smith(that L. is necessary to distinguish John in Google Searches), writing out of Lovington, describes it as the stench of imminent danger. Commercial truckers knocking down six figure salaries have deadlines to meet which sometimes entails risky driving. Dakota Lujan and Nygel Key of Fritch Texas lost their lives near Hobbs NM and traffic deaths are disproportionately high. What to do? All these extra high paying jobs are great, but what about all the highway fatalities caused by chasing after that almighty dollar!! Not blaming all this on the 18 wheelers. There are the usual number of drunk high s

Wordsmith Brotherhood

A pet peeve of mine is people who no curiosity about word origins or who are unwilling to expand their vocabulary. A couple of testosterone charged cowboys, in a Glen Ford Movie about the Oklahoma Land Run in the year 1889, apologized to to Glen Ford's character for coming on to his wife at a swimming hole. They sheepishly told her they did not mean to discommode her. Enter Ray Pickett and Linda R Leone who have fond or not so fond memories of the word that means to inconvenience or irritate. Ray has been discommoded as a jogger  at the Coole Park Gort, County Galway in the country of Ireland. Careless dog walkers on the jogging trail was the source of Mr Pickett's irritation. I wish the USA posted notices on their jogging trails to fine irresponsible dog owners! Mrs Leone recalls hearing  the now archaic discommode on the TV show Father Knows Best.

Packer Fan Family Ensconced in Alien City

Image
One would expect the good people of Roswell NM to be either Dallas Cowboy or Denver Bronco fans since both of those NFL hosting cities are around 500 miles from the Pecos Vally in south eastern New Mexico. But the picture below provides evidence to the contrary. We took it next Spring River Golf Course at 1600 West Third Street. We may retire in Roswell and were scouting around for a place walking distance to both the golf course and Cahoon Park where they recently covered up the prematurely closed pool for good! You will see the gold or yellow packer sign painted on the curb of the proud fanatics of the Aaron Rogers led professional football team. I am sure it was tough for the residents of this home while the Dallas Cowboys were dominating Favre and the cheeseheads in the 90s. We saw a fight between Packer and Cowboy fans at Farley biker bar a couple of years back. Nobody got hurt and the police were not even called! That looks like an ice chest in their front yard maybe being

Young Farmer standing up for his Profession

When it comes to political views and ideology in US nowadays, there is are no philosophical underpinnings or moral principles that guide most Americans. Everybody votes for the presidential candidate they feel will most  protect their family and source livelihood. Bronson Corn's letter to the newspaper in Roswell NM is perfect example of this assertion. Bronson is a sod buster or more politely a farmer. He took a trip to the packed illegal immigrant situation at the Mexico/USA border. The unstable conditions there are an extreme threat to ranchers and farmers in the region. Bronson, who pays his hard earned tax dollars to the Federal Government, expects that money to pay for more Customs and Border Patrol Agents to shut down the uncontrolled flow of Central American and Mexican drug runners across the border.

Stand behind the actions of this off-duty police officer

We spend almost 5 weeks in Roswell, New Mexico United States of America during the summer months to help out our children with with their parenting duties. We have to get out and about occasionally and have been appalled by the dangerous driving we see daily. Kids racing down Main Street and Union streets, idiots not stopping at four stops, just to list two reckless forms of operating a motor vehicle. An off duty sheriff's deputy is being crucified for his actions trying to prevent a motorist from endangering the citizens with his horrid violation of multiple traffic laws! I hope lawyer Jason Bowles will defend our valiant public defender David Bradshaw, who was doing his job by trying stop the crazy fool who should not even have had a drivers license at the time Deputy Bradshaw tried to protect members of the community. Drivers, in the area of the incident that day in March 2018, stated a Hispanic male was driving erratically almost hitting cars and one pedestrian. Mario Rosal
