Keep Austin Weird: A Guide to the Odd Side of Town
Austin native Red Wassenich accidentally invented the phrase  "Keep Austin Weird" in 2000. It has since become the unofficial city motto.  Red maintains the facade of a mild-mannered librarian, which hides a past  of acting odd. Among other things, he once watched TV for a week from  sign-on to sign-off. He was a fake evangelist on Mexican radio. He played a  cadaver in the movie "The Hunger." He loves Austin.
