You must have gotten special dispensation, I was told it takes 25 years. Well, that is what they told me.

Sorry, but when I can be in another country and someone from California that overhears a conversation I'm having with a local walks up and says, "You're from Dallas, aren't you?", I'm claiming Texan! Guess some of us do have an identifiable accent!

That, added to 30+ years in Dallas and 5 in Houston... makes it so!
