Psssst! Local reporter Ilana Gold wants your stories!

Maybe it's just me, but it's seeming lately like the number of local TV news stories based on Duke City Fix posts or comments is on the rise. Back in the day, local TV had to rely on finding their ne… Continue

The internet! The internet!

I'm loving the South Park death-of-the-internet clip that's been buzzing around online since Thursday maybe just a little too much. Especially the part about local network news. But that would never happen in Albuquerque, right? Local media… Continue

8.5 things to know when you move to Albuquerque

Imagine my amazement when I found out that a full 40% of the visitors to this humble cityblog come from outside of New Mexico. Now I know that some of you used to live here. And I know that some of you are contemplating a move. But as for the rest of you... all I can figure is t… Continue

strange (theatrical) doings at the q-Staff theatre

I haven't really written about them before because, to be perfectly honest, I've never seen them perform. But I have such an intense brain-and-otherwise crush on all three of the q-Staff theatre members that I have to mention that they have a show starting this weekend. Expect to se… Continue

must. pick. at. golden west. scab.

I know, I know. I begged us to change the subject. But the latest news on the whole Golden West/El Rey/Launchpad thing is just too good. The fantastic (I loved her at the Lobo, I love her even more now) Marisa Demarco has written a damning piece in this week's Alibi (it's not online till tomorrow morning, so pick up a real copy and turn to page 46) on Kathy Zimmer and the Golden West mess. In the story, Marisa gets a half-answer from Zimmer about our favorite flashpoint -- the insurance issue.… Continue

Can we - and I'm actually begging here - talk about something other than the Golden West?

I'm tired and a little bit cranky and it's like that moment in a new relationship (that's maybe really only going to end up being an extended hookup) when you realize that besides talking about how great the sex is all you seem to have in common are details from the past two weeks. And even then all of those details involve being in bed. Or on the kitchen table or something. Enough! I need some sort of non-Golden West substance or this can't continue! I'm more than just a great rack! I have a b… Continue

Lunch Out

For some reason I seem to be eating out for lunch again. I had a nice run of at-home middday meals going there (pleasant for me, pleasant for my pets). But now it's back out into the white tablecloth world of ABQ lunchtime dining. Here's where I've been going (and where I'd gladly re…

Ad Bowl is from Albuquerque

It's become a fixture of Superbowl Sunday around the country. And it was developed and is run by an Albuquerque advertising agency:

Trib purchase down the tubes

That's right. Both the Albuquerque Tribune and the New Mexico Business Weekly are reporting that the flirtation between Doug Turner and Tom Carroll on one side and E.W. Scripps on the other is off.

Nobody's saying -- still -- when the Trib will cease…

political rumors du jour

I've got two of them, both involving the Obama campaign:

The Washington Post will be on hand at UNM tomorrow to discuss the Obama campaign with our nation's future. Has anyone told them yet that the campus is a ghost town on Fridays?
The man himself is expected to be in Albuquerque (and at UNM) on February 1st. Detai

1/2 for the road

I vaguely remember the debate over this, but I sort of lost track until our server at Zinc brought it all back to us last night:

It turns out that you don't have to finish that last bottle of meritage - you can pack it up and take it home.

New Mexico law? Albuquerque law? (I'm not even sure how to articulate the search terms...) says that if your server follows these steps, you can bring your unfinis…

I love the video on your page. I've always wanted to see what that singer looks like. I thought she'd be older - like a 70 year old diva smoking cigarettes and drinking gin and tonics.
Let's be "Friends."

Actually, I've got an Accounting exam at 8am... I should really be asleep. Ah, last minute cramming!
