7 Days

From Dec. 23

1   Gov. Bill Richardson refuses to release the names of laid-off political hires. And also has been spotted standing on the Roundhouse yelling, “I’m the king of the world!” 2

Governor's budget task force members plan to lobby to reinstate the food tax.
A no-brainer when you pay for all your meals with an expense account.

3

State unemployment fund is running out of money.
Which either indicates high demand or embezzlement—hard to tell these days.

4

University of New Mexico might cut back from the $4.5 million it spends on almost 20 vice presidents.
Maybe it should add one: Vice President for Not Ripping Off the Taxpayers..

5

City asks residents to report potholes.
City has apparently become masochistic.

6

Former State Treasurer Robert Vigil home from prison and can't associate with other felons under his probation.
In other words, he needs to make some new friends who aren't also former elected officials

7
Happy New Year, Santa Fe!
It can only get better
