| 0:00.0 | I heard a story when I first moved to Dallas though that there were these two gentlemen that were traveling in Central Texas and it really doesn't matter where they were traveling from and traveling too, but on their way, on the journey, |
| 0:15.1 | on their way to where they were going, they were going to pass this town, and I'll spell |
| 0:20.3 | it for you because I don't want to pronounce it yet because that's what the whole story is about. |
| 0:25.0 | It's M-E-X-I-A. How many have ever heard of that town before in Texas? |
| 0:30.0 | Anyway, they were traveling and they were going to pass this town and they saw a sign that said that town 10 minutes away or 10 miles away. |
| 0:39.0 | And so the driver he turns to his friend and he says, oh look we're coming up to Mejia and the person that's in the passenger, the passenger, the person that's the passenger, he said, but no that's Mexia, that's how you pronounce that, that's mexia that's mexia he said no it's |

| 1:20.9 | they walk inside and they talk to the lady they go up to the lady behind the |
| 1:24.3 | counter and they say, you know, I'm sorry to bother you and we really don't want to order any |
| 1:28.2 | food, we'll order a Coke or something if you'd be happy, but we just need to know the name of this place. We've been arguing for the last |
| 1:36.2 | ten minutes what the name of this place is. And so if you would very carefully and slowly |
| 1:42.4 | pronounce the name of this place, it will just really clear up a lot of confusion. |
| 1:48.0 | So if you would please pronounce the name of this place very slowly. |
| 1:52.0 | The lady behind the counter looks at him strangely and says, |
| 1:55.0 | Dairy Queen. |
