The inside line on Albuquerque, NM
Were you born at Pres, St. Joseph's or BCMC? Do you remember when Montano was a dirt road and Piggly Wiggly was where you shopped for groceries? This is the group for you to remember old 'Burque.

I thought it would be fun to have others share their 'Burque memories. I know many of you have expressed interest in talking with me about your stories. Why not do it here?!
Alright who remembers Captain Billy, Dialing for Dollars, Val de la O, Weatherman Dr. Fishback etc.? What shows or personalities have I forgotten about?
