Please, for the love of Austin, take a minute and watch this video by John Kelso, the Statesman's "humor" columnist, of his cross-dressing muse, the legendary Leslie Cochran. (He's so legendary, in fact, that when you Google 'Leslie,' he's the third entry.)
be sure to watch carefully at the end

(My apologies for not being able to figure out how to embed the video. Any html techies out there have a solution?)
I really don't think I can do Leslie justice by writing any sort of follow-up analyzation or attempt at witty humor. I am fortunate enough to see Leslie a few times a week on my way to work. Walking from Bouldin Creek to who knows where, in a black fur hat and red miniskirt, gold earrings dangling from his ears. Austin is my beloved home, indeed.
Also, in case you were wondering, I would LOVE my own Leslie magnets for Christmas.
