Weldon, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Ritchie Valens, Bobby Fuller, Buddy Holly, Little Jr. "Appearing Tonight - Doug Sahm and Friends: Papa Link Davis, T. Last night as I lay on my bunk, this came to me: I also sent you a Xmas gift I had made for you on Nov. Meaux," and you would fire up "Mover," "Rains Came," "Mendocino." No one will ever play the intro on those songs like you, Doug! You had a feeling on that guitar that was yours only! I had a letter from Augie Meyers, Bobby Smith, Joe Gracey, and Doug Hanners this week. But I would like to hear you one more time as I walked in clubs saying "I want to send this to my producer Huey P. I was a barber then, doing local acts in my spare time. I am laying here on my bunk, thinking of all the good times we had from 1957 when you came to Winnie to see me. But I am not down as you would not want me to be! It's cold here in this prison cell in Huntsville.
Oh man! I have watched the TV and newspaper. I know this is true because it has happened to me. You will be handcuffed, taken in the back of a squad car, detained, and fingerprinted at the police station and identified. Though you may have not committed a crime before giving your name, if you name is not in the police system you will now become a suspect to the police for falsely identifying yourself. But the police always detain suspects long enough to radio this information in and check records. I was also disturbed by the D'Amico information the local Web sites urge bike riders to lie about their identity when pressed by police. Even if a bicycle owner has lost the serial number of a registered bicycle, a competent police force would maintain a record of it. If the police do a good job of filing and cross-referencing a bike serial number and owner, it's inexplicable why the serial number shouldn't be adequate by itself. But owners of aluminum and alloy bicycle frames should exercise more caution.ĭ'Amico also reports the puzzling police view that the bicycle's serial number is usually an inadequate means of identifying a stolen bicycle. If the frame is made of solid steel, there is probably little to fear.
First, with regard to the prospect of policemen pounding out driver's license numbers or social security numbers on bicycle frames, owners should consult with manufacturers first to make sure that this act does not violate any warranty.
I have some comments re: Rob D'Amico's public service piece on how to avoid bike theft. Will the Network really promote tourism? Do you believe that tourists come to Austin to sit in a hotel room and watch the Austin Music Network? I don't think so! The bed tax specifically funds the Bureau, and while it has a department that promotes and supports the music venue in the city, it does not provide the staff support for the Music Commission.Īnd yes, I'm sure the Music Commission is in favor of the bed tax funding the losing Austin Music Network - why wouldn't they be? But let's focus on the stated purpose of the bed tax. The Austin Convention and Visitors Bureau is not a city department but an independent nonprofit corporation that is charged with promoting tourism in Austin. The Austin Convention and Visitors Bureau is described as being "a city department that ironically provides staff support for the music commission." This is not the case. The article discusses "diverting" of some of the bed tax, which incidentally is collected from hotels in the city and by law is to be used specifically to fund the Austin Convention and Visitors Bureau for the promotion of tourism in Austin.
In your article "A Full Plate", there appears to be more carbohydrates than meat and potatoes.
