Tommy (sorry don't know last name just that he is a musician and has a marvelous smile) is selling raffle tickets to raise money for the Ministry of Salvation's food mission. Tickets are $1 each. 6 for $5 or $10 for a book of 12. The food mission supports local families in need. You can arrange to buy tickets by calling Tommy at 847-2831 or emailing whoozyodaddy@uphi.net
Someone is taking down my "visit the original Mountainair Arts" flyers from the B St Market community bulletin - perhaps elsewhere as well. I've commented on this unfortunate trend earlier with reference to other flyers. Since informal posting "broadsheets" is Mountainair's standard publishing mode here, taking them down is censorship and vandalism - not to mention really bad manners and imminently childish. I have suspicions that I may or may not blog. So if you see anyone taking down a "visit the original Mountainair Arts" flyer, please tap him or her on the shoulder and ask if he or she is me. Report it to me for blogging and there's a free subscription in it for you... not to mention fame and gratitude.
UpHi closing down public access computer center. UpHi is not closing and will continue to provide wireless service, do installations and maintenance, repair and upgrade computers, upload software, sell computer accessories. The fate of UpHi hosted classes is uncertain, but I'll try to keep you posted. Originally, the local ISP planned to rent space at the Mountainair Campgrounds, but that did not come to pass.

Ray wrote to let me know that Tommy's last name is Randles. Now you know what name to ask for when he cuts his CW CD
