David gets mistaken for Kinky
Most of you know that David's been taking it to the streets the last few weeks ahead of his Filibuster for Education on April 17.
Last week when he was in Brownwood speaking to a handful of locals, a woman came out of the Brown County courthouse, scowled, went back in and returned a few minutes later with two burly sheriff's deputies. At this point, Rachel -- David's wife, accompanying him on the road trip -- was thinking there was going to be a confrontation; something along the lines of "You'll have to move off county property," or "Where's your permit for assembly" sort of thing.
Nothing happened with the deputies, but a truck soon pulled up and two more men got out and walked up to join the crowd listening to David.
David wrapped up his talk and the two fellows approached and asked to interview him for their local radio program. David eventually spent an hour on Brownwood talk radio.
As they prepared to leave the radio station, one of the hosts informed him that the woman at the courthouse (the county clerk, as it turns out) had called them to say that "Kinky Friedman" was outside and they ought to hustle over and get a scoop.
Must have been the beard and the cowboy hat.
The radio fellows emphasized that they were by no means let down by the fact that they got to spend some time with the next Attorney General of Texas.
And hey, I believe them.

LOL! See David, I *told* you Kinky wouldn't hurt your campaign!
But I dunno how they could be mistaken--David's much better looking. ;)
