Fw: Joe Nick Patoski

For about four decades Joe Nick Patoski has been writing and radioing about Texas.  Consequently, his blog "Notes and Musings" is replete with Texana worth reading.  It's strong on music, and Joe Nick has an abiding interest in the land. Sample entries of February are TCU Texas Book Award Texas Land Trust Conference Willie's Place at Carl's Corner Listen to Jalapeno Radio Live Saving Radio Jalapeno KEDA Burns The Ballad of El Molino Bill Mack on WIllie's Place NPR Does Marfa (and so does JNP) He introduces himself with "Y'all come in and take a look around. Have your enjoys. If you have any specific questions, or want to know more about why it's so dang hot in Texas, where the best spring water swimming is, hidden hidey holes of Mexico, the origins of alt country, why radio is the way it is, or other semi-arcane subjects, send an e-mail. I'll write back. --Joe Nick "
