I don’t often dream about real people. I’ve been having a reoccurring dream about one particular woman. She’s the object of perhaps the greatest love I’ve had for any woman.

Jak Bailey has been in music for nearly 30 years, on both the performance and business sides of an illustrious career. Now that he’s released his latest album, “Electric Noize,” Bailey is taking some time to reflect on his musical past.
Chicken Fried Steak is a truly Southern dish, but it’s loved all across America. Closely related to Austrian Wienerschnitzel (breaded veal cutlet) and Italian or South American Milanesa (breaded veal or pork) and even Scottish collops, this dish is considered one of Texas’ offerings to American cuisine.

This week has some awesome cultural events that you won’t find anywhere but New Mexico. Remember to have a safe and happy holiday season.
Aaron Carter, American teen icon of the early 2000s, will grace the stage this month during his first tour in eight years, the After Party tour. Here’s hoping Carter will perform such timeless classics as “Aaron’s Party (Come Get It),” “Bounce” and “That’s How I Beat Shaq.
Dear readers, This is my last column of the semester. This means most of you are too busy to read it, having higher priorities like studying for finals or writing papers. This is fine; I’m not offended. There is a time and place for everything.
Editor, The Kirtland Air Force Base jet fuel spill of 24 million gallons is the largest poisoning of underground water in the history of the United States. 24 million gallons is almost twice the size of the Exxon Valdez disaster. Read the powerful lead story in the Nov. 28 – Dec. 4 issue of the Weekly Alibi exposing this catastrophe.
Editor, In reply to the previous letters regarding the State of Israel and differing versions of history, I can only say this: The Jewish people accepted the desert; the Arabs refused the fertile land of honey.
Editor, The idea that the U.S. is lower down on happiness statistics because it isn’t laissez-faire capitalist enough is nonsense.
It’s not completely foreign territory, but the New Mexico men’s soccer team entered rarefied air on Sunday night. With their 2-0 victory over Penn State at the UNM Soccer Complex, the No. 7 seed Lobos reached the Elite Eight for the second time in school history.
Students have signaled interest in starting a bike-share program on campus.

Catholic Croats flocked to the capital city Zagreb Sunday to vote on a referendum that would ban same-sex marriage in the Balkan state.

I want to thank Jason Darensburg for providing me with the real gem of a column, titled “US trails in happiness worldwide” in Wednesday’s Daily Lobo. It once again displays the need for socialists to distort the truth about reports, even when it’s the most subjective and equivocal study about the human condition.
Editor, Richard Forer’s letter published in Tuesday’s Daily Lobo, ”Glossing over history is bad, Israel never content,” is dumbed-down anti-Semitism at its best. And before anyone says the author is “Jewish,” what does that mean?
Kendall Williams: A game-high 28 points in New Mexico’s 73-66 win over San Diego. Alex Kirk: 21 points; Cameron Bairstow: 16 points. The rest of the Lobo roster: eight points. Three players accounted for the vast majority of UNM’s scoring output as the Lobos won their fifth game of the season Saturday afternoon at The Pit.
After struggling to sink shots in its first-round loss in the Thanksgiving Tournament, New Mexico rebounded to take third place with a 73-55 victory over Southeastern Missouri on Saturday at The Pit.
