Oil.

If you thought that was funny. I got an even better joke for you:

Two drivers climb out of their cars after colliding at an intersection. One pulls a flask from his pocket and says, "Here, have a nip of whiskey to calm your nerves."

"Thanks," says the other driver; taking a swig. "Here, you have one, too."

"Nah, I'd rather not the police will be here soon."

Read that in a magazine today

Well actually.....no I don't really like the Galleria so I don't care which one is better ,I've already voted Dallas is more upscale.
