David: Hello, Seattle!

Todd: Hello, Seattle! OK, well, how about could you introduce yourself to the listener?

David: Oh, hi, I'm David. I'm from Tennessee. The home of Jack Daniel's whiskey and Elvis Presley.

Todd: Do you like Elvis?

David: He's OK.

Todd: Yeah! Cool!

David: Never met the guy, but.

Todd: Your name is David

David: Yes, that is correct.

Todd: But what does everyone call you here?

David: Tennessee

Todd: OK. Why does everyone call you Tennessee?

David: Two reasons. One, I'm from Tennessee, the most obvious and the third is because usually there is two to three, one time there was four Davids here.

Todd: Oh, I see.

David: And to keep us from getting confused they just started calling me Tennessee.

Todd: Oh, nice. Great. Well it was nice to meet you, David.

David: Nice to meet you too, Todd.
