I'm waging a WAR on unethical Car Boot Rackets. In fact, I'm being charged with CRIMINAL PROPERTY DAMAGE for cutting the BOLT off of a boot placed on my car by an unscrupulous, unethical "Car Booter."
Please see my website where you can send an e...
Well, I did somehow end up in a Hawaiian restaurant in San Francisco last night, so go figure. And my drink totally DID have a paper umbrella. And a cherry and a pineapple slice! I guess it is a local institution or something. Can't remember the n...
Hey Barelas Babe, I am out of town and freaking out and looking for those, too!
Live it up while you can while the Journal online is free...a good source tells me it's not gonna last!!
Oh, so you named her Haru! My son just said he liked her best. But he also said Dunbar was a "giant teddy bear" with beautiful teeth.
Oops, here's the link to the site....http://abqjournalwatch.com/. I recommend you read "Introducing ABQ Journal Watch" and "Just the News, Without An Agenda" first.
Yes, it's not about who had the better paper...it's about who had the rights to the more lucrative morning publication. Afternoon papers everywhere, no matter how good, have consistently been first to go under because of complicated market trends ...
Well heck, compared to the Arizona Republic, the Journal may indeed be perceived as a raging liberal pamphlet, on some days. Generally speaking though, the Urina...uh, Journal doesn't even come close to reflecting the overall mindset of the popula...
Albuquerque needs both the Journal and (especially) its critics. Thanks for doing this!
Thank you!
I found you blog via Jim Baca's and I want to thank you and Denise for your efforts in trying to expose the Journal for the rag it is. It's a damn shame, but it appears the blogosphere is the last bastion for journalistic integrity. Keep up the go...
Do you ever wonder why editors at the Albuquerque Journal make the news decisions they do? Do the editorials sometimes make you shake your head or throw the paper down in disgust? My former Albuquerque Journal colleague Denise Tessier and I are tr...
Five Reasons She Is:
Hates cats.
Eats dog food and likes it.
Spends all day waiting to bark at the mailman.
Can point, flush and chase birds for hours.

- Hi Tracy, My name is Zana Morris and I'm doing a research paper on the death of Luis Jimenez back in 2006. I noticed that you wrote a few great articles about him, and wanted to know if I could have your email address to interview you. I found this page through google, your help and time would be greatly appreciated! My email address is heyitsapineapple@aol.com, and if you are able to send your email to that address I would be very grateful! I will only ask a few, short questions. :)

- Hi, Tracy, Sorry for late reply it was a rough end of May. I do not have any Visla dogs. Whilst at the hospital waiting for mom to come out of surgery my brother in law updated my page with my approval. He had these dogs from an email. I think they are all showing their teeth in a funny grin. They are cute though. I have labradors. I do not go to dog parks because my chocolate lab loves to chase balls and the puppies love to bite his legs. He in turn bites them. It cost me $300 with my sisters puppy. I now keep him away from potential sharp biting puppies as I can not blame him really.

It seems as if a big point was missed in that discussion - the weekend inaccessibility to pay the fines was unfair.
I love getting to see your excellent reporting now on NM Independent, especially education issues. You are a real asset to our community with your honesty and keen eye.

Do you ever wonder why editors at the Albuquerque Journal make the news decisions they do? Do the editorials sometimes make you shake your head or throw the paper down in disgust? My former Albuquerque Journal colleague Denise Tessier and I are trying to unravel some of the reasons many readers are so unhappy with the city's only daily paper in a new media criticism blog called abqjournalwatch.com.

Read This If You Own A Car and Park It In Albuquerque
I want to tell you about something that happened to me. But first, let me frontload my sad tale with a giant dose of self-flagellation to ward off the criticism that I know I probably deserve.
I know that getting a parking ticket is bad and wrong and not paying that parking ticket is even badder and wronger. I was a bad and wrong person, specifically in the area of parking tickets. If my dad is correct, and getting parking tickets is a sign of bad character, then I am truly rotten and probably d… Continue

A Call For Clarification From the Hipster Weather Guy
Has anyone else noticed the new weather guy on Channel 4? He's a bona fide meterologist and all, so props to KOB on that. But what drives me insane is the three different ways he pronounces his name (there may be a fourth...my kids and I are still debating).
The Hipster, as my kids have (perhaps disrespectfully) taken to calling him, is named Michael Kelting and he pronounces his last name in these three key ways: Kelting (regular), Kyelting (slight slowdown in the middle) and Kel-TING (distinct… Continue
