We LOVE SXSW


the Lone Star state's coolest city, Austin hosts - and we party - but our intrepid ñ correspondents -
they never reported in with thier final say - too much Lone Star Beer and Killer Texas Tacos and long sweaty music filled nights - here's the NY Times Jon Pareles instead.

Final Frontier My Friends




I got a wonderful email from Ruth Livier (Star/Creator/Co-Writer of Ylse) telling me about a great and grand story that I've never heard on the news anywhere. Which is a shame since these are the kinds of stories we need to be telling. This August there will be Two Latino astronauts going on the space mission, Jose Hernandez - a Mexican National from Michoacan, who studied at UC Santa Barbara and Daniel Olivas - From El Paso, TX. from the US born of Mexican parents. Jose's astronaut bio is here, and Daniel's wiki page is here. Now these, mis amigos are role models. And as Ruth wrote to me, "This is the talent our community develops:))". Amen Ruth.
