I picked up korby at the austin airport, and we headed out to 6th street in Austin for a drink… We saw the r-bar.. and since the r-bar is a beloved institution back in SF, that’s where we headed…

We walk in, and the place is packed with a bunch of cute girls… and a TV crew… I took out my cameraphone and took a quick picture (it’s a really, really, really, really bad picture), after which some really muscular dude came up to me..

muscular man: “Sir, can you please not take pictures?”
me: “oh, um.. ok. what are you guys filming?”
muscular dude: “We’re making a documentary.”

A documentary?!?! Yah.. right! It’s the Real World 16.. in Austin. The hot girl is apparently Johanna, although I really thought the other chick in the white shirt with the long black hair was quite fetching as well… I doubt that korby or I actually got in the shot or anything, but that was quite exciting.. Wahoo.

Just so you know, in front of the camera was a bunch of cute people having quite a great time.. dancing, drinking, laughing.. behind the camera, there was just a room full of gawkers. That said, I always wondered how many people were behind the scenes of a real world shoot… It looked like there were about 6 or 7 real world cast members.. Supporting them, were 2 cameramen, 2 light people, 1 microphone dude, about 2 more dudes running around with earpieces, and the muscular dude. Oh, and 1 cop.
