From an interview with Ben Jones (Cooter from The Dukes of Hazzard), who will be doing multiple readings from his new memoir Redneck Boy in the Promised Land in the Triangle*:
He was born into an active port city during World War II, and he once exchanged drunken hellos with Jack Kerouac as they both urinated on a fence in Chapel Hill.
*Along with the reading, "On Thursday, June 19, in Chapel Hill, 'Ben Jones Day' will be observed with a book signing and pig picking at the Dead Mule Club from 4-7 p.m." Heh!
