- Look at the 85 comments on this Statesman story on the closing of the Zilker lawn after ACL! This is an issue that Austin totally cares about!
- That Austin Chronicle cover-art of Bob Schneider is actually a self-portrait. Who knew?
- Going to see Wilco tomorrow night in Williamson County? Please don’t pee on this dude’s fence, as he’s already had enough!
