Nice, the City of Aztec just sent out a message that we need to avoid flushing and using water because the sewer pant has been shutdown due to the ongoing Animas River flood. They haven't issued a boil water order yet, but I think I'll go buy some water, just in case.

With all of the flooding on the Animas River in New Mexico, I've now heard three different pronunciations of that name. I've always said, "Ana mas." Last night a newscaster in Albuquerque said, "A ne mas" (rhymes with anemic). And just now another newscaster said, "Ah ni mas," with the Spanish pronunciation of the A vowel. What the hell? Well, I need to ask my landlord. She has lived in Aztec her whole life. Or maybe ask a Diné (Navajo) person & go with whatever their word is for the river. 8/x
