Another little piece of Austin passed away, local commentator/comedian Cactus Pryor. I readily admit to only knowing about him in bits and pieces yet I sensed he was important because the bitching blowhard of KLBJ-FM (Dudley) would shut up to let Cactus speak.
To me, he represented the old Austin. A time when it was still a quiet college town. The city my mother denigrated after her visit in 1983.
