My favorite part of this affidavit is how the tellers made the guy wait and wait until he went looking for a manager.
Appalling service!

No emergency declarations have been made in #NewMexico, but local governments had some plans in place as the expiration of #Title42 — a federal policy allowing for the rapid ejection of asylum applicants at the southern border — loomed Thursday.

I've been puzzled about the persistent disappointment that I'm not writing crime #blotters as in earlier days, naming everyone who got a DWI or committed some misdemeanor this week.
The city of #DemingNM and its police chief are so unhappy, the city is now producing its own blotter on its website, naming everyone.
My best guess is that there is a desire for extra-judicial punishment. Might not get a conviction, but we can shame them? I dunno, but that's my guess.

A cryptic social media message from our #DemingNM school superintendent inspired an editorial about why #localnews is preferable to online rumor mongering. #DemingHeadlight https://www.demingheadlight.com/2023/04/14/online-rumors-versus-real-news/

A broadband project announced yesterday involves installing 49 miles of fiber optic in #LunaCounty #NewMexico, bringing service to #ColumbusNM and remote areas south of #DemingNM.
822 locations sounds like a modest number but it belies the geographic scope of the undertaking, mostly covered with federal #COVID19 money and some matching money by the provider.
And they say they'll have it done in a year, which is bold.

The past month has been really tough for the #DemingHeadlight and I've had doubts about our financial survival, but we may be turning a corner. In any case, we're still putting out #newspapers and today's is a good one, with news of #DemingNM and #ColumbusNM (which is experiencing governing chaos), interview with a congressman, a preview of the annual Rockhound Roundup, a good opinion page and more.

CW: Off-highway vehicles on city roads
The city of #DemingNM will allow off-highway vehicles on city roads. On its second try, the Deming City Council passed an ordinance tonight. It came down to a tie broken by Mayor Benny Jasso.
As recently as 2018, the city opposed this, but has done a 180 as enthusiasm grows.
But a retired police chief who is now on the council was having none of it.

Wednesday's edition of the #DemingHeadlight is PACKED, and there's breaking news on DemingHeadlight.com, too. In this issue: A strange story from #ColumbusNM, #NewMexico Special Auditor orders exam of #DemingNM utilities, the #ForestService is sued to prevent aerial shooting of feral cattle in the #Gila wilderness, high school sports, and #NMleg updates from the state Legislature. I love this paper. #localnews #newspapers

CW: Local beef processing (slaughterhouse)
