    Greetings Leslie,

    I'm Mike McQueen, teacher librarian and founder of http://www.GettingBoysToRead.com. Like many school districts, we are in a financial crises. Our school board recently proposed to eliminate ALL 20+ middle school teacher librarians and also cut all 90+ elementary schools to half time. Since we are the biggest district in all of Colorado, we worry this will cause other districts to follow suit. We launched an online movement and are going to do our best to put up a good fight. If possible, please visit our Facebook page and "Like" us http://www.facebook.com/SupportSchoolLibraries . Adding a positive comment and sharing with your friends would help our morale as well. The board finalizes the budget soon so your timely support would be greatly appreciated!

    Sincerely,

    Mike McQueen

    Teacher Librarian at McLain HS

    My daughter even wrote a song and called it "Falfurrias." It is all instrumental, a very fast paced guitar solo. She used the town name because she wanted to play on the idea of "fast and furious." I don't know if she still plays it.

    Actually we have been told that we are related to her. I have Salinas relatives through my Great granddad who was Pedro Salinas. They ended settling in Faysville, but they were pig farmers that ran them up and down 281 ranches. Small World.

    I just read you are from Falfurrias. I spent a good part of every childhood summer there with my cousins. Bob Scott is president of the bank there now, and his sister Anita Kibbe also lives there in the family home I used to visit so frequently. Their dad was mayor back back when I was a kid.

    Falfurrias, Are you related to Eva Longoria? I have quite a number of relatives from Falfurrias from my Salinas side. Small world.
