Re: Your Hometown
Austin's official slogan is:
The Live Music Capital of the World
One of its unofficial mottos is:
Keep Austin Weird
It's a mix of cultures, politics, lobbyists, arts, parks, springs, state employment, technology -
My mother-in-law told me that she remembered when the main street, Congress, was a cattle drive up to and around the state capitol.
oops, sorry - forgot - Austin City Limits is based here.
