Concho's real name is José Concepción del Río Martínez, but everybody knows him as Concho River. Russell and I met him a long time ago (I think it was 2004). We were driving from Lubbock to San Antonio and Concho was there hitchhiking. We gave him a ride and he has been our friend since then.

I think it was 2004, too.

you are troubled my friend.
don't you know you shouldn't give rides to strangers who are hitchhiking?

We were riding in someone else's car, so it was OK to pick up the hitchhiker.
