It’s been a long time since Demi Moore was a but a child from Roswell New Mexico. She’s experienced quite the trajectile ride from Area 51 to center stage/screen, global dogooding, to gyrating on rappers and her youthful hubs.
But something the Dems ain’t done es una película de Nuevo México. Yes, from the time she absconded to and conquered La, la land, to her infamous purchases of small town America and commendable humanitarian efforts…N. Mex hasn’t seen much of ‘er.
Let’s git’ wit Mrs. Kutcher (@mrskutcher) and ask her when she’s coming home, who does she want for her home state’s first Governess, when she’s gonna make a flick here, etc., etc.
Because we is good people – from So. Nem. to North 40 and everywhere in-between, whose booming film industry could really use a boost from her wattage – a little love from the Roswellian could result in more j-o-b-s which she could help parlay in to more philanthropic ways from we her neglected homies.
Before you hate on me (y’all didn’t even know she did half this stuff till I tol’ you) for bein’ hater I ain’t hatin’ I’m just callin’ a sister back home.
The Dems is currently betwixt Chi-town, Motor City and Gay Paree shooting the sure to be cinematic gold LOL: Laughing Out Loud with Miley Cyrus (who filmed her BIG Hannah Montana movie in her home state of Tennessee…hmmmm).
Maybe Dems, Kutch and the affable Willis can star in the sure to be remade Threesome, N. Mex Style…a.k.a. two slabs of beef with extra cheese!
And p.s. if Moore has any trouble finding us…NPH can show her the way
…back from seeing ‘The Switch’ I give it 3 outta 4 stars. It was good, kinda reminded me of ‘The Object of My Affection’ w/out the gay.
The story line was pretty good. Jen did a good job & Jason did a great job.
The middle of the movie lacked something, kinda got slow. Jeff G. scared me playing the sidekick/father figure/d…irty old man – couldn’t figure it out. It is a semi romantic comedy, so see it if you have the time.
Finally a topper for those pajama pant days that will still shows off your shake weight arms!
The fine folks at Happy Hoodie Friends (not affiliated with condomdepot.com) have the versatile, wide range of head toppers to meet all your dress up, dress down, bad hair day, and no hair day needs!
These Happy Hoodies (not affiliated with the Happy Hocker) are the perfect cherry on top of the mounting resources of your wardrobe malfunction arsenal.
And since you’ll need a lil’ somthin’ somthin’ in the northern hemisphere (this isn’t Europe for cripes sake) Here’s the latest in fashion faux pas prevention:
Veteran New Mexico chocolatier Scott Van Rixel has applied to trademark “Bhang, the original cannabis chocolate,” for his premium chocolate, medicinal confectionery.
New Mexico will be missing out on the buck from the Bhang because state laws currently prohibit the production of marijuana into the chocolate delivery system as developed by Van Rixel and his industry partner Robert Martin, Ph.D.
Furthermore because of Federal interstate commerce laws when the pair are basically forced to abscond from the state to manufacture their recipe elsewhere it won’t even be available to New Mexico where it is approved for administration as medical treatment for a long list of ailments and diseases.
Much ado about red tape which reminds me of my favorite Val Kilmer performance ever where he spins the tale of how the Microsoft trademark like “Bhang, the original cannabis chocolate,” has its origin in Nuevo México who’s binding it up and kicking it to Cali.
The antioxidant rich, medicinal stuff may not hit the market making Van Rixel & Co. the Bill Gates of reffer meds, but it’s a shame to see a good business man/plan have to go.
Because we don’t all have $11 million to plunk down on an ancillary building…
APS is holding a back-to-school clothes swap meet to help students and their families prep and dress for the upcoming school year without breaking the bank.
“There is no doubt EVERYONE is in some way being affected by the current economic recession especially if you have kids. Worrying about how to get your kids clothes for the new school year or maybe clothes for you, your mother, your father, or anybody can be stressful.
There is a solution to the stress…..
On July 31, 2010 9am – 12pm some members of the community have organized a swap meet to try and help ease the financial stress of buying new clothes for you or your family.” – APS

Cancer sticks and fake-bakes will cost you more as of today. Ciggys go up $.75 per pack (zipping Nuevo México from 31st to 18th on the national cigarette tax average) and you will get taxed 10% more to jerkyfy yourself on your favorite tanning bed.
The gross receipts tax (most goods and services sans Rx and staple foods) will go up one-eighth cent, from 5 percent to 5.125 percent.
On the upside you have 90 days and counting to take advantage of The New Mexico Taxation and Revenue Department’s gracious Tax Amnesty Program which allows past-due state tax debtors to pay their tab sans penalties and fees.
Those in the know already know and have seen this can’t miss Pixar Animated Short in full which plays during the Toy Story 3 opening – and it is truly AWESOME.
Here’s a ridiculously short glimpse of the short – never was a short sweeter!
World Refugee Day and Father’s Day are one in the same day – Coincidence? I think not. A stupid little blogette, namely ME is going to initiate the first annual zip your pants and close your legs day (ZPCL)!
It will be sometime in November as the highest U.S. birth rates are recorded in July and August translating to most impregnations occurring in and around November (Sarah Palin may wish to celebrate in March when her teenage daughter became pregnant).
Bristol Palin is doing her part to contribute to ZPCL day by introducing an iPhone app. of a baby crying non-stop for 30 seconds.
Philanthropists of the millenium, Bill and Melinda Gates need to take a sit down with me and parooz the preliminary chapters of my forthcoming book entitled, “Why it’s Easier to Make a Baby Than to Buy a Bag of Doritos”. These impassioned dogooders are spending BILLIONS vaccinating the impoverished all over the globe.
I’s here to tell ‘em, that the most powerful vaccine and the most effective of the three components of World Peace is BIRTH CONTROL. This quote from the lovely Melinda grates on every neuron of sensibility.
“a woman I met in Tanzania…walked six hours…she was 20 years old…she had 4 children at home…on the verge of delivering her [ANOTHER] baby…we see it time and time again.” – Melinda Gates
What to the F in H is that!?!?!? I hope Ange-jo would approve of my World Refugee Day sentiments as I too preach that all human rights should be protected and not be forgotten – especially that most basic human right to have control over one’s own body.
Yes, please do not forget those suffering to the extent of how much harder it is to care for two (three, four and FIVE) starving mouths above your own – think of all the earthquake babies, the tsunami babies, hurricane babies, because from all these world catastrophes to right next door (to Russia) it truly remains “Easier to Make a Baby Than to Buy a Bag of Doritos”.
So while ~we fund water, refuge and vaccinations can we please put a think on personal health and sexual education!??!?!?
You may have happily taken-in mega hits like Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland, Jerry Bruckheimer’s G-Force or my personal fave Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs without even knowing from whence these productions sprung.
Why the answer is right here in our own backyard. Since 2007 Sony Imageworks has made a home for itself in the Q.
While we make much-ado about the live action productions aqui we gotta a give a big fat nod to the awesomeness (literally) that is Sony Imageworks.
And they ain’t just animatin’ over thar’. In the video above the first forty Imageworks crew that made the maiden voyage to town tout and tell all about how their doubts dispelled on joining us here in the Duke City.
The talented beauty that is Miranda Cosgrove of iCarly (and Drake and Josh) fame is heading to the Duke City to promote her debut, top-ten pop album Sparks Fly.
Cosgrove will be participating in various meet & greets while in town. Keep up with her stops on her Facebook page here.
Sweeping changes abound in our nation’s economy – from Wall Street to Radio Road. It is a bygone era when an artist jumped up and down with glee at hearing the local celebrity disk jockey spin their tune because that was the first, best place to be heard.
Free radio is not so free, it’s certainly rarely free standing – instead our jocks are regularly corporate employees, subject to sweeping changes in the name of financial overhaul that have already homogenized play and limited talent. ICYDK: You may be listening from Bozeman to Sacramento to a NYC based jock.
But now even that digitally farmed-out jock may be subject to the axe. What used to be our regional entertainment resource some now recognize as overwhelmingly commercial and contrived, a “syndicated jukebox” if you will – with too little home based talent and influence interjected.
Well your jukebox may lose every ounce of its humanity by being wholly “owned” by advertisers and record labels. The so-called Performance Tax is on the horizon. If the measure passes artists’ labels will take a cut from airplay thereby all but eliminating funds for live, on-air hosts.
You can sign the online petition here to join the thousands of us who want some local voice and choice on the radio.
“In a time when no one has any scratch to spare, and movie tickets cost as much as a small village, yet Hollywood blockbusters still abound – Wall Street may not be able to offer bets on your movie future – so says the Feds…”
As we told you here media product trading including the futures game on box office receipts has long been in the works, but may now be stalled by the CFTC a committee under the U.S. House of Representatives.
The CFTC had recently approved the proposal to allow market trades on tix sales of the film “Takers” and for “The Expendables” – however in a 13-8 vote yesterday the The Senate Agriculture Committee passed a ban (introduced by Blanche Lincoln, D-Ark.) on box office trading legislation.
The commodity of film gross receipts may survive to see another day under an alternate Wall Street reforms package hitting the committee floor today. The exchanges of the two films that were already approved are tabled for re-approval until June.
Toyota Motor Corp. has just halted sales of their vehicles in the whole of the U.S. and Europe. Following last week’s recall of top selling models due to an accelerator pedal defect – with no solution in sight.
Brooks’ salary package holds steady at more than $250K with an APS budget deficit looming at over $11M, classroom level solutions such as staff cuts – whereby teachers with seniority may be extended the honor of staying at a pay decrease with an added workload to make-up for the cuts, being knocked around, and recent APS administrative glitches such as this Summer’s $16M FUBAR.
Even my only half-lived Catholic school education tells me, “that ain’t right!”
While Task Forces and Czars abound an astronomical APS bond and mill levy is coming-up February 2, I think it’s time for a casting-call in addition to casting our votes.
At minimum we’d like to see an RFB (Request For Bid) opened in the name of manning the APS budget and structure. A bid would at least contain a plan and a proposed budget which is more than we can say for NM’s Own Harry Winston.
Therefore, maybe a manwife, unemployed genius, or your local tradesperson would have more success cleaning-up the APS budget since the only thing currently cleaning up is Brooks’ bank account.
Since we’re (you’re) all connected to the life support system known as our (your) PDA, tis’ true that when we (you) lose said device we (you) are virtually incapacitated.
As rather ironically conveyed below by the hotel staying, daily grooming, cutie host of the popular, mainstream, reality, torture show known as Survivor (jump to ’round the 2:30 mark to skip the dehydrated chx. bone chat).
Don’t forget to get your tribal on in the local tryouts for Survivor here in Nuevo México in Jan.
Back in the mid-nineties Linda Katz was learnin’ how to use the internets under the tutelage of her young son, when creating a basic web page they came up with a little something that looked like this, and it still does.
Shortly after going online, the hypothetical farm started generating orders from all over the world and within the first year the Katz’ were pulling in $40,000 in revenue – not too shabby for a found product that ships for the same cost as AIR.
India, Japan, Global Film & Television Production Companies and Interior Designers are some of the most insatiable weed collectors.
Locally NM Tumbleweed of Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran Church in Rio Rancho meets some of the current tumbleweed demand. There are sites o’plenty out there now, so maybe boxing las rusos isn’t going to be the bag for you, but obviously there’s always something out there.
