Yes, I found pictures of Leslie Cochran when trying to find out a bit more about where my wife (Donna Maurer - IAsummit blog mistress)was travelling to. After all, she was travelling all that way without her family.

I found a bit on Leslie here:

So Leslie is famous even here in Australia! Still kinda wondering though...

Gotta love that Leslie - before kicking off his political "career" (http://www.austinchronicle.com/issues/dispatch/2003-03-14/pols_atlarge.html), he used to have a daily protest at that corner against the Austin Police Department.

Definitely a local hero - A friend commented the other night that she knew she'd finally arrived in town when he approached her at the Continental Club to compliment her on her manicure and outfit.
