I think it's a reasonable plan. But some people just don't want parking lots.
People would pet her, give her sugar. She was more of a mascot than anything.
We're talking serious taxes. A lot of people want to know more about the expenses. There were figures, but there was little to bite your teeth into.
We are in major hiring mode. We're interviewing people every day.
People are clamoring to hear good ideas as opposed to the lesser of two evils... Either the Democrats are going to win or the Republicans are going to win, but the losers are all of us out here as citizens that really do want meaningful change, and none of it's happening. There's no dialogue regarding meaningful change.

I think any time you can have an objective expert do your returns, you've got go with that. They can find things that perhaps you haven't seen, they give you good clean records, they keep track of your documentation. But there is always a price tag attached to doing it that way so it's not something that everyone can afford.
I think this flight really points out the importance of preventive maintenance for all the watersheds in New Mexico,
