Nooooo! ABQ fails to make Amazon's HQ short list.
Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos obviously didn't listen to then-Mayor Richard Berry, who urged Bezos last year to come back home to New Mexico and build his company's second North American headquarters in the Albuquerque..

On Thursday, Amazon released its short list of 20 cities for its second headquarters, and - shock of all shocks - Albuquerque isn't on it.
Of course, that shouldn't be a surprise to anyone.
Some cities that made the list are Chicago, Boston, New York, Los Angeles, Denver Dallas, Austin, Indianapolis, and Washington, D.C.
Oh well.
