Fun fact-- Bill Hicks graduated from my high school, albeit years before me. I didn't discover him until around 2004 though-- you were way ahead of me! I often think of his joke about how people who work in PR should just "kill themselves" and how he would probably say that about journalists today.

I was also living in Austin in 2001, managing the Oak Springs Branch Library. Maybe we crossed paths in I Luv Video.

How neat that you went to Bill's high school. Really that's where his career began! And yes, perhaps we crossed paths at I Luv Video -- or Wheatsville, , or Waterloo Records, or a club on Sixth Street...
