Then I went to Trader Joes' and discovered that they had a big display of "Cowboy Charcoal" with a picture of a cowboy on a buckin' broc on the bag.

Then, while I was on the bus readin an excitin' article about road pavement  :o ::), in Bicycleing Magazine, I read that "There's never enough time, or money, to fix every road . . . "

Hey Pete,

  That's serendipity.  Happens to me all the time.  That's how special this movie is for us.  I remember, when getting in to my rental car heading from the hotel back to Aunties backyard (The Texas BBQ), the digital odometer, in bright red numbers read 1963!  Made me smile.

Thanks for getting the pic Adrian!  :D

Update on the BBM Poster/Billboard at Tower Records in SF (Bay and Columbus Streets) - It is still there as of 10-28-06!  Since Tower Records is going out of business, it may be there for quite a while longer!

I missed this thread the first time around.  Just want to say my scrawny ass was in that car too, and Pete was a wonderful guide, and Melinda a wonderful chaffeuse.

And oh - my ass isn't scrawny, but it was fun to say so for one brief sentence. :)

Maybe it's up for grabs... "We're here to guard the posters, not take 'em down in the middle of the night and sneak 'em home..."
