Meet the owners and employees of Record’s Ace Hardware Raton, NM:
Jeff Record. He’s the Record’s Ace Hardware Raton, NM head honcho, at least in his own mind.
What you should know about me: I’m the boss and I have my wife’s permission to say so.
Likes: Hiding all the “on sale this month” items in the back and then telling customers “come back next Wednesday”.

What you should know about me: I’m the Eric Trump of this family.

Dislikes: Customers and anyone named “Record”.
Ray Tafoya. Says he’s busy … but, busy with what?
What you should know about me. If I could do absolutely nothing, I would. Except someone told me that doing nothing is doing something. So, now I’m confused.
