Texas Book Festival 2019 Photos


Texas Book Festival, Austin Texas Capitol Grounds & Building. I personally got to listen to Scott Pelley of 60 Minutes and CBS NEWS discuss his new Book. He thanked me for my  stand up question about the relevance, pro's and con's of  Social Media in today's news world. His panel and talk was very sharp, funny, honest, virtue filled and intelligent. Scott Pelley is still going strong! 

I got a Book Festival Program Signature from Joe Nick Patoski, Author of Austin to ATX. The weather was wonderful, the covered tenant booths were friendly, and as usual the  Texas Book Festival was very awesome. There was an entire street, Congress Ave. devoted to kids and youths books. Hmm..Should I write a youth or kid book? Nah....

Some of the more Famous Authors speaking this year I was personally not able to witness but wished to were Malcolm Gladwell, Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor, John Grisham & General William McRaven.

The Electric Urban Scooter Surplus.

Preconceptions.... These new mobile phone application ordered electric scooters whizzing around my downtown and adjacent neighborhoods have distinctly changed Austin Texas's scenery! The terrain has visually been altered. These electronic "pay 16 cents by the minute," scooters have given this new century, a starkly different transportation look. Has your city been bombarded yet? Warning, they are coming. It's inevitable. Visualize with me, the streets and sidewalk you used to actually walk or peddle bike upon, now outwardly sporting these various and competing brand's scooters. How does it work? Well, I imagine, the usage methods are similar to the Uber, and Lyft ride-share models. First, download the scooter brand mobile phone application, next input a credit card for automatic payment, then locate a scooter to use, and finally scan, start, and go. I'd bet it is a pretty simple process. Isn't simplicity always the #1 goal of consumer te...
