'Keeping Austin Beard'
RECEIVED Fri., Aug. 5, 2011
Dear Editor,
In light of the Chronicle cutting back on the amount of letters published I am posting on two items from last week's Chronicle in one letter.
The Austin Facial Hair Club's motto should be "Keeping Austin Beard" [“Where the Beards Are,” Screens, Aug. 5].
Second was the "Bag It" article [“Point Austin: Bag It,” News, Aug. 5]. Just recently on the news I saw a story about some city attempting the same thing. The story was about a group of protesters outside a retail business. As an innocent woman was exiting the store with her purchase in a plastic bag, the group ascended upon her with shouts of derision. All the protesters were old, dried-up hags wearing tie-dye. These uptight biddies should form a group and call themselves "Bags Against Bags."
