[QUOTE="TerryMiller, post: 3906350, member: 7900"] That's where that came from.... ...let me explain. When I was stationed in CA back in the '60's it was interesting to see that there was a naval base at Vallejo, CA called Mare Island. (Incidentally, around that time someone at Mare Island managed to sink a submarine at dockside.) Vallejo is pronounced "val-ay-ho." Anyway, the joke was someone traveling through the area saw the name of the town and said, "Oh look...there is "valley-jo." That is the first town I've been able to pronounce since "alb-a-kiki."
