Small World post number 24: Paul goes to see Ani DiFranco last night, and Hamill on Trial opens up. When I lived in Albany, NY, Ed Hamill worked in the coffee shop that was across the street from my apartment. Ed’s a great, friendly, funny, intelligent guy whose company I enjoyed very much. I haven’t seen or talked to him in years and have since moved to Atlanta and lost touch with most of my Albany friends.
