Speed Cameras and Greed!

The New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson and Albuquerque's Mayor Martin Chavez argue about who gets the proceeds from the "Robin the Hood" speed cameras. It feels a little like "Legalized Highway Robbery." Let's give the money to the poor and the community...COME ON!

Lucky Boy Restaurant

Where “East meets West”

The other day, Colin Scroggins and I ate lunch at Lucky Boy on the NE side of Albuquerque. Lucky Boy is a 1950’s looking diner hole-in-the-wall style restaurant which is absolutely reasonable! I ate the sweet and sour chicken meal. Needless to say, it was under $4.00 and absolutely delicious! I can only think of one place where the meal deal is less and that is Costco’s Hebrew National meal deal ($1.50).




Ambiance = 5/10 (Small Hole in the Wall)
Food = 10/10
Service = 10/10
Manager = 10/10

I highly recommend Lucky Boy’s Restaurant for your next lunch meal. Bring cash! No checks, Visa or Debit.

Talk about driver distraction!

El Camino + Los Ranchos de Albuquerque

For Albuquerque's Best Huevos Rancheros

I often eat breakfast at the El Camino Dining Room on old route 66 in the village of Los Ranchos (surrounded by Albuquerque). The El Camino is a 1950’s diner (hole-in-the-wall) style restaurant which is absolutely reasonable and very tasty! I always eat the huevos rancheros with red chili and I have never been disappointed.

Ambiance = 6/10 (Small Hole-in-the-Wall) (Smoking Ok)
Food = 10/10
Service = 10/10
Manager = 10/10

I highly recommend the El Camino Restaurant for your next meal.

No Hand Held Cell Phones While Driving!

What Were You Doing When You Should Have Been Driving? No longer holding a cell phone and driving in New Mexico...as of February 16, 2007.

More lost Freedom: Good or bad, with the mayor’s signature, Albuquerque has joined Santa Fe, New Mexico in banning the use of hand held cell phones while driving.

Check out Crazy Drivers! The title says it all. What were you doing when you should have been driving? A whole lot of people drive vehicles, but do they drive safely? Here is what I have observed.
