The grants went to at risk kids for acting classes and other theater classes, lighting, sets etc. Something for our kids to do instead of run the streets in the "war zone".<BR/><BR/>It was suppose to be run by the city arts tax, but Marty pulled it from them when the county bought the building (his pissing contest).

Yes, AFD took over two stations and it included the trucks to use, but after a short while of those trucks sucking due to poor maintenance, AFD put in their own trucks and got rid of the county influence there. Now they let their own incompetent FOOL tell them there is nothing wrong with the trucks and they should quit bothering him. Hodgie did sell his soul to the county commision, but no one at AFD is complaining. By the way, the Quantum may be bigger and more expensive, but it is also stronger, more capable, and an overall better truck. You will probably pay three times as much to replace all the cheaper trucks time after time as what you paid for the quantums. I have worked out of a contender... they are not worth the savings. Oh, and those junkets to Wisconsin, AFD sends their mechanic there all the time to inspect the new trucks that come back, and he wastes your money too. the last few trucks at AFD had so many easily noticeable mistakes, that there is no way he did anything besides drink and be merry while there. By the way, he makes the third turd in the bowl. He was a reject from another department in the city that got rid of him, and AFD got stuck with him. Don't worry BCFD, AFD has just as many problems. Sometimes you just gotta stop off at the nearest walgreens and grab yo self a beverage.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4662430175624645998.post-38960576558666996592009-01-30T00:48:00.000-07:002009-01-30T00:48:00.000-07:00JOHN GARCIA WAS THE PRESIDENT OF THE AFD UNION, HE...JOHN GARCIA WAS THE PRESIDENT OF THE AFD UNION, HE SOLD HIS SOUL TO BE THE BCFD CHIEF, SO THE ABQ.

Look at Corrections their budget, staffing, and pay all rival BCFD, and let's not mention the GREAT ONE Darren (I've never seen a camera I didn't love) White, when BCSO asks they shall recieve. County has no respect for the Fire Department or its Firefighters/Paramedics. It shows in your staffing, pay scale versus other departments, equipment, and facilities. It's just unfortunate that the BCFD has Chief John Garcia asking for this tax increase. The County Firefighters all know they need this and the voters will give it to them, but the County Comissioners will make sure only a fraction of it makes it back to BCFD. Thank You County Firefighters/Paramedics for all you do for us in the County!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4662430175624645998.post-89462652650395701962009-01-29T15:27:00.000-07:002009-01-29T15:27:00.000-07:00Actually, correct me if I am wrong, but when AFD t...Actually, correct me if I am wrong, but when AFD took over the County Fire stations, the County turned over all the brand new equipment as well..... hindsight is 20/20 I guess.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4662430175624645998.post-63521093108000069112009-01-29T12:47:00.000-07:002009-01-29T12:47:00.000-07:00To the guy criticizing the purchase of the new tru...To the guy criticizing the purchase of the new trucks, wake up, trucks wear out and need to be replaced. They took the place of some of the busiest trucks in the county, and were greatly needed. The county has never been known for having nice equipment, so good for them for getting the stuff necessary to provide quality service to the citizens. The county has barely put in any money to the Fire Department in the last decade, and their stations are old, run down, and are in need of some significant financial TLC. the county commision should spend the money to refurbish or rebuild the stations that need it, and more trucks should still be replaced. If those commisioners can't do it with the money they already have, then we should vote them out.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4662430175624645998.post-40158026095218571572009-01-29T09:58:00.000-07:002009-01-29T09:58:00.000-07:00How the world works lately...If a man cuts his fin...How the world works lately...<BR/><BR/>If a man cuts his finger off while slicing salami at work, he blames the restaurant.<BR/><BR/>If you smoke three packs a day for 40 years and die of lung cancer, your family blames the tobacco company.<BR/><BR/>If your neighbor crashes into a tree while driving home drunk, he blames the bartender.<BR/><BR/>If your grandchildren are brats without manners, you blame television. <BR/><BR/>If a deranged madman shoots your friend, you blame the gun manufacturer.<BR/><BR/>And if a crazed person breaks into the cockpit and tries to kill the pilot at 35,000 feet, and the passengers kill him instead, the mother of the crazed deceased blames the airline. <BR/><BR/>I must have lived too long to understand the world as it is anymore. <BR/><BR/>So, if I die while my old wrinkled ass is parked in front of this computer, I want all of you to blame Bill Gates.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4662430175624645998.post-36893509980959130222009-01-29T06:57:00.000-07:002009-01-29T06:57:00.000-07:00We should fund priorities first and fully, then le...We should fund priorities first and fully, then let the people who want to spend money on things theater renovations fight over what's left.
