Nowadays, we never have to think about how long a message might take to get somewhere or to someone, in fact often if there isn't a near instantaneous reply.

We often get frustrated or even annoyed with the messages going from Oxford, Mississippi, or sending to let's say Oxford, England. We want it now and we want to fast John Steele Gordon historian and friend of Hillsdale is here to tell us how the story of the telegraph in the transatlantic cable changed the world Inventions Are More Important Than Others, and Oscar Hammerstein the First Grade and Opera Impresarios to Grandfather of the Lyricist Was Great and Vented to My Life, but He Once Invented a Reversible Necktie so You Can Still Gravy on Two Sides That Any Soul That He Made Money on This Thing Because Not Change the World Is Been Known for 100 Years That You Could Send Electricity down a Wire Many Very Important Scientists of the 18th Century Had Investigated This, Including Benjamin Franklin, Whose Famous Experiment with the Kite McKee Prove That Lightning Is Electrical Phenomena.

If You're Tempted to Reproduce Franklin's Experiment, I Would Strongly Suggest That You Don't Pose a Parlor Game until the 19th Century, When Wire Became Cheap Wire Factories Powered by Steam. Control out Copper Very Quickly and Efficiently for Than You Had Beat out and so the Telegraph Became Practical in the Early 19th Century, and People All over the World Were Trying to Do It. Two Men in England Which down and Cook Developed and Patented a System Is 1837 That Actually Worked. There Was Kind of Clunky, but It Worked. Samuel Morse in This Country Sent His Famous Message.

What Hath God Wrought in 1844 and His System Eventually Became Adopted Worldwide Because It Was Simpler Than the Other Systems and Also Because of His Marvelously Efficient Code Which Is the Only Part of the Whole System That He Invented Entirely Himself. Everything Else, It May Lead to Some Pieces He Had Borrowed the Code Was. It Was so Efficient That People Discovered Very Soon That They Could at First It Would Write down the Dots and the Dashes and Then They Would Translate the Way Found.

Once Telegraphers Got Used To It That They Can Actually Do It by Ear. Just Write down the Message for the Very First Able to Learn How to Do That. By the Way, Was a Young Telegraphers in Pittsburgh. His Name Was Andrew Carnegie and Telegraph Wires like Crazy Often Use the Rights-Of-Way of the Railroads As Convenient Place to String Their Poles and Their Wires and One Long before the Railroads Learned That They Could Use a Telegraph Is a Signaling System Because Most of the RailroadsWere Singletrack and so If There Was an Oncoming Train Expected Didn't Come Will Destroy Medicine on the Siding until It Came with Telegraphic and Telegraph Had Sang No Were Stuck. You Guys Can Come on Suddenly the Railroads Are Much More Efficient. Prices Went down Use When Underwater Telegraphy Was Another Manner. We Knew It Was Possible, but There Was a Very Strong Reason to Try and That Was in the 1840s and 50s. The Strongest Country in the World Was Located on the Archipelago off of Northwest Europe. They Wanted to Be Able to Connect to Europe so It Was Time in English. I've Always Loved to Be a Love That 22 Miles of Water between Them and the French but They Documented the Famous Mid-19th Century. Times of London Headline Fog and Channel Continent Cut off and so There Are Brothers Named Brett Ordered 30 Miles of Telegraph Wire and Put on the Back about Real It out across the Channel and Try to Send a Message Back to Dover and Vanessa Got There Was Gibberish on Decipherable Delays to Prove That You Could Get Electric Signals through 22 Miles of of Submarine Cable and What Made the Cable Possible Was the Stuff Cold Temperature, the Sole Use of Data Purchase Today Is It's Used To Fill Root Canals after You Have the Nerve Removed Dennis Watson Got a Pressure and Shortly after It Came in the Use of Golf Playing Clergyman and in Scotland Wanted If They Might Possibly May Limit Golf Balls at a Better Picture Because I Hadn't a Single Feather Reason Made of Leather and Stuffed with Boiled Goose Feathers and This Is a Very Highly Skilled Job Stuffing the Feathers into the Golf Ball.

They're Very Expensive and I Only Lasted Maybe Two or Three Games.

So This Clergyman Would Love to Play Golf Did like Paying for the Feather Is Made Golf Balls Out Of Got a Purchase and Pay. It Worked Great and They Were Very Much Deeper and He Discovered after He Played with One, Two or Three Times That the Ball Started Going Further and Understand Why We We Do Not Understand Why Now. It Was the Dance and the Knicks Parted by the Golf Clubs Gave a Better Aerodynamics, and so They Put Dimples on Golf Balls and That's Why the Dimples Are There to This Day Because the Bullnose Father and Many Golf Players Love That Characteristic.

Now We Come to a Guy Who Is Responsible for the Cable I Wouldn't Happen without It Would Happen Eventually. But It Wouldn't Happen Nearly As Soon As It Did in His Name Was Cyrus Field and He Came from an Old New England Family from Connecticut. His Father Was David Dudley Field Great New England Clergyman. He Is Distinguished Enough As a Clergyman, As an Author to Be Listed Today in the Dictionary of American Biography, Which Is the Standard 24 Volume Work on Distinguished Americans of the past, the Rev. David Dudley Field and His Wife Had Eight Sons and Three Daughters and Eight Cents.

Two of the Sons Died. One Died in Childhood.

One Died in Very Early Manhood He Was Lost at Sea. Of the Six Sons and Lived to a Full Lifetime for Them Made It into the Dictionary of American Biography on Their Own. The Two Who Didn't. One Was a Very Distinguished Engineer and the Other Was President of the Massachusetts Senate for Three Terms, so They May Have Been a Great Clergyman, but Clearly the Rev. David Dudley Field Was a Pretty Good Father and You're Listening to John Steele Gordon by the Way His Book the Thread across the Ocean. The Story of the Transatlantic Cable Is Terrific Odor.

It Can Seem Confusing, but It Doesn't Have To Be This at UHC Medicare Health Plan's.com to Learn More United Healthcare Helping People Live Healthier Lives with Our American Stories and the Story of the Transatlantic Cable Historian John Steele Gordon Was Just Introducing Cyrus Field Bright Young Man from a Very Impressive New England Family Was the Person Responsible for Connecting Both Sides of the Atlantic Cyrus Feels Not As Intellectual As Some of His Brothers Justice Marches That Is Interested in Learning When He Was 16.

He Asked His Father's Mission to Come to New York and Going to Businessman's Father Granted Is Unique among American Colonies. The Charities Came to New England. The Quakers Came to Philadelphia. Catholics Came to Maryland in Order to Worship As They Wish to Do so.

The Dutch Came to New York to Make Money and for No Other Reason Whatsoever. In Fact They Didn't Even Get around to Building a Church for 17 Years so Busy Training First End of the Church of St. Nicholas and Santa Claus Has Been the Patron Saint of New York Ever since Seven Cyrus Hill Came to This Town That Was Famous for Hustle and Bustle, and Let's Make a Deal and He Was Very Very Good at Doing Exactly That Own the Paper Company Wholesale Paper Company and Became Very Rich by the Time He Was in His 30s. It Was Worth Several Hundred Thousand Dollars, Which in the 1850s Made You Enormously Rich. He Lived in a House on Gramercy Park Brother by Next Door. Doors to Communicate between the Two Houses and He Was Bored with Running the Company Because He Was an Entrepreneur at Heart When Something Was up and Running and Just Cranking out the Boredom Going to Take One Day His Brother Matthew Feels a Guy Named Frederick Is Born over to See Him Because He Is Born Had Been Running a Telegraph Line across the Southern Shore of Newfoundland in Hopes of Putting a Cable across the Cabot Straight the Entrance to the St. Lawrence River and Connected to the Telegraph Grid and in North America Because He Said That Would Make Communication with England Today. Shorter Because Newfoundland Is One Third of the Way along the Great Circle Route to New England and Cyrus Hill Very Interested in That They Didn't Think Today's Way That All Different Skill Is Only One Day Difference to Halifax Which Was Correct to the Telegraph Grid RN Looked at the Globe in His Library and Saw That Now That Newfoundland Was Indeed One Third of the Way up on the Shortest Route to England and He Said What If We Could Play Cable All the Way to Ireland. Then We Can Communication Would Be 10 Days. It Would Be 10 Minutes We Can Make Money Doing That and so Excited, He Wrote a Couple of People. Matthew Fontaine Maury, the Great Oceanographer Asked If It Was Possible, and My Wrote Back Saying Funny You Should Ask. We Just Did a Series of Soundings. We Found This Thing Would Be Back Slave Named the Telegraph Plateau Is the Ideal Place to Lay Telegraph Cable and Asked Samuel Morse If It Was Possible, Moore Said Sure Morse Was a Tinkerer Is Actually Great Artist. But He Wasn't Very Well Technically Grounded Either.

He Borrowed Most of His Ideas from People He Knew Much More about Telegraphy Needed Field Size to Go Ahead with This Because He Had No Idea What He Was Getting into. Almost like Somebody in the 1950s Reading about the Success of the Russian Sputnik Saying Hey, I Got an Idea about a Man Expedition to Mars Because the Longest Undersea Cable in 1954 Was Less Than 300 Miles Lay across the North Sea, Which Never Gets Deeper and about 300 Feet. This Would Have To Be 2000 Miles Long and Be a Depth of Sometimes 15,000 so He Embarks upon It. He Got His Neighbor Peter Cooper, the Founder of the Cooper Union Leading to This Day. The Only American University That Does Not Charge Tuition. Moses Taylor Who Was an Enormously Rich Man Who Ended up Controlling the Gaslight Industry and in the Middle Putting Very Considerable Sums of Money and off I Go Start on This First Thing That It Was Delay the Telegraph Line across the Southern Shore of Newfoundland Which Turned out to Take about Four Times As Long As They Can on Cost Five or Six Times As Much. The Southern Shore of Newfoundland Is Not an Easy Place to Work like Rain and Fog. You Will Love Delay the Cable across the Cabot Straight about 80 Miles and Basically Had No Idea What They're Doing. They Order the Cabling and the Only Place in the World Makes Submarine Cable. It Was Brought over a Sailing Ship Hired Steamship in New York Go up There Was Going to Tow the Sailing Ship Crosses a Sailing Ship on the Realty Cable and Invited Everybody on Board to Come on Board the Same Boat so All the Investors. Peter Cooper Was There.

The Rev. David Dudley Feel They Spent 70 Was There Their Wives and Daughters Were There and Have Some Long Skirts and Parasols. I Got to St. John's in the Capital of Newfoundland.

There, the Whole City Was Full of Great Large Black Amiable Newfoundland Dogs and They Fell in Love with Them and I Bought 10 or 12. Bring Them on Board and so Here Was a Combination between a Commercial Enterprise and on the Cutting Edge of Technology in a Yachting Party and the Captain Proved to Be Very Uncooperative. He Refused to Follow Orders for One Thing, Set on That Sale.

My Shipley May Not Sailing Ship Didn't Know Where They Wanted to Sale and Finally Had to Cut the Cable and It Was a $500,000 Disaster so They Need Lots More Money, and the Only Place to Get It Is England Was Much More Enthusiastic about Them.

The United States Was a Worldwide Empire Which Is Very Difficult to Communicate with, and so the British Government Said Okay Once the Cable Works We Guarantee to Pay You 16,000 Pounds a Year Which Means You Can Borrow 4% Now Virtually the Entire Cost of the Estimated Cost Length Cable Once It Works, the Government Made the Same Promise of Great Deal of Screaming and Yelling in Congress Because A Lot Of Americans Think No. What We Need.

This Probably Did Come on Board the Navies Donated to Ships. The US Lengthy USS Niagara One of the Largest Warships in the World Made of Iron, State-Of-The-Art Chip Design. The British Gave Them the Agamemnon, Which Alone Was Steam Powered. It Looked for All the World like about the Phone at Trafalgar 50 Years Earlier Was Three Decker Three Masted Ship of the Line That Had Been Retrofitted for Steam and It Was a Lousy Sailor As Most of Those Great Big Cutting Chips the Line Were Used To Ship the Other One. No Ship in the World to Carry Enough Cable to Do the Whole Job the First Time a Starting Ireland Got out about 400 Miles and the Cable Snapped and What Time Next Year. They Tried Again Sale after the Middle This Time before They Got to the Middle. They Were Caught in One of the Worst Atlantic Storms in Memory. The Agamemnon Survived Only Because Her Seamanship on the Part of the Captain and the Crew It at 250 Tons of Cable Sitting on Its Forward Deck Which Made It Even More Top-Heavy That It Had Been before and He Managed to Say That Cable I Could Just Cut It Tossed but They Did Not They Survived. They Tried Again Cable Snapped.

They Went Back to England This Point They Were Derided by Everybody. This Is a Wild Goose Chase While We Putting Money into This Silly Thing and Feels That Look out the Monies Spent. We Have the Cable We Have Enough to Do It.

Let's Try Again Now. We Got Nothing to Lose. Otherwise, We Do Sell the Cable for Scrap and Limits It Certain Disaster. So They Tried It Worked Unreal. Virtually without Any Problem in Your Hearing the True Nature of an Entrepreneur and That Is They See Things That No One Else Sees and Not Even Sure They Know How to Do a Call If You Guys A Few Gals the Next. Another Given a Shot and When They Fail, They Just Want to Try One More Time Is in My Fix What Didn't Work and Make That Dream a Reality and Not Some Pie-In-The-Sky Crazy Dream, but Something Doable. And When You Think of a Guy like Elon Musk Thing I Want to Build a Spaceship Somewhere Always Doing This. Well, It's Always Been in Humankind and Something about Our Country Unleashes It in People and Allows It to Thrive When We Come Back More of John Steele Gordon Story.

We Pick up at the Point Where the United States and England Have Finally after Many Failures Connected the Cable from One Side of the Atlantic. The Other Ear Again Is John Steele Gordon Looked It up and It Works Shoe Celebrations. It Was like the Second Coming, George Templeton Strong Wrote in His Diary That Some People Really Going Wild Moderate People Say It's Only the Greatest Thing That Has Ever Happened. I Had Huge Parties in New York.

They Sent Fireworks off of City Hall so Enthusiastically They Set City Hall on Fire. Below Is a Replacement Because It Was Burned in That Fire Force of the Same Building As Its Magnificent Building. Don't Approve of What Goes on inside It, but Architecturally It Was Wonderful and Queen Victoria Sent a Message, a 99 Word Message to Present to Canon Cable Company Did Not Tell People Was That the 99 Word Message Took 16 1/2 Hours to Transmit the Cable Was Working, but Just Barely an Family Just Want to Work at All. It Just Stopped.

And They Never Did Figure out Exactly Why so They May Try Again, and They Had to Wait at That Point until the Civil War Broke out after the Second They Run Out Of Money. For One Thing I Could Begin the Raising of Money They Had to Wait for the Civil War and Am Also There Was a Board of Inquiry. The Very First Time There Was an Official Board of Inquiry to Find out What Caused the Disaster British Also Had a Terrible 800,000 Pound Disaster Laying a Cable to India through the Red Sea Also Works What Went Wrong How We Can Do It Better Learn Our Lessons Here. My Friend Old Times a Lesson One Was.

I Didn't Have a Vocabulary of Electricity and so Is Very Hard to Discuss Technical Issues Get People Using Different Words and Have Our Different Meanings to the Same Words and so They Started Coining Words and They Started Using the Names of Great Scientists of the past.

So Words like Watford, James Watt Home for Gaylord Own and Compare What Great French Early Investor. A Great Italian Investigator of Electricity Is the First Time, Scientists Were Honored in This Way Goes on to This Day. We Now Have New Things and All Kinds of Names, Mass. You Know You've Arrived As a Scientist When You Get Some Incomprehensible Concept. Amanda Then Assigned a New Table. One of the Problems with the Old Cable Was a Debate Very Quickly Designed Feel the Greatest Virtue As an Entrepreneur, Was His Drive.

Let's Get It Done. I Was Also the Greatest Effect Because He Didn't Get Enough Time for Experiments. They Designed a Much Better Cable First Cable Had Been about As Big around As a Man's Finger. The Second Cable Was about As Big around As Mass, Which Is Considerable Improvement. Still Very Long, Thin Thread across the Ocean and Also They Had an Extraordinary Stroke of Luck in the Greatest Engineer the 19th Century Is an Barred Kingdom Brunel Is Really Great Name Dickens That Night. He Designed a Steamship Great Eastern Which Was Launched on the Thames River in 1858. It Was. Not Only Was It the Largest Ship in the World.

It Was Five Times the Size of Any Ship Afloat and throughout Its 30 Years of Existence. Wherever It Was Rather Was Bombay or Boston or Baltimore. It Looked like a Rowboat and upon Full Docs, It Was Just Shy of the Panama Canal Existed When the Great Eastern Dad Greatest and Could Not Utilize It Was Too Wide to Get through the Panama Brunel Realize That You Could Go the Whole Ship Big Enough Because the Energy Required Increased More Or Less a Square but the Capacity Increases That You so You Can Do More and More and the Said Building a Ship and He Designed This Colossal Ship and Somehow Taught People in the Band Have a Built. It Was an Economic Disaster. There Were Six Owners of the Great Eastern All of Them Lost Major Money, Including Scrap Dealer Who Owned Last Because It Turned out to Be Extremely Expensive to Break It up for Scrap Was Also Absolutely Perfect for Laying the Land Cable I Could Lay the Whole Thing Because It Was so Enormous It Was Much Less Subject to Wave Action. So with Much Less Likely to Snap the Table That Will Work As Needed on Board and Was Out Of Work Anyway Because It Was an Economic They Were More Than Happy to Lease to Be Used for the Cable so 1965 Whole Thing Again and They Get for for so the Way across and Then Slams They Went Back to England, Tail between Their Legs. Sure, They're Going to Be Objects of Utter Duration and Effect. Everybody Said Good Bad Luck. Now We Know We Can Do Only Got It. It Was Just Good Luck in the Next Year They Laid the Fifth Attempt Went like Clockwork. They Then Went Back out, Grab the Fourth Attempt, Splice It on and within Three Weeks at Two Cables across the Atlantic Ocean and North America Has Not Been Out Of the Occasion of Europe from One of a Couple of Hours.

Ever since It Revolutionized the World the London and Wall Street Markets Began to Act in Concert Because They Could Now Instant Communication Newspapers on the UPI United Press International, Seca Cable Could Possibly Get European News Today Is Just Jittery What Was Going on in Europe Today. Today Was Just Ask Mary Something to Them.

We Just Take It Totally for One.

The Weather Is in London We Find out How It Was Very Expensive. Use a Cable First Price Was Dollar Word 15 Word Minimum Is $15 and One Skilled Worker Was Lucky to Earn Five Dollars a Week. This Led to Considerable Brevity and Also the Capacity of the of the Two Cables and Then When the French Cable Came in Landed Here That's Creating 69.

It Was a Separate Organization Competition. Competition Wonderful Capitalism Capitalist. I like It so Much for Capitalism Is Great Prices about Went Way down Usage Sword and Became Very Profitable. Satterfield Ridge in the World Is Changed the World.

Just Changing to Give You an Idea of How Much It Changed.

The British Declared War on Germany on August 1, 1914. On August 2, 1914 a British Cable Ship in the Dark of Night Sailed over to the German Coast Grappled up the German Cables and Cut Them Forcing the Germans to Communicate with the outside World by Radio, and the Germans As I Always Did, Thought Their Codes Were Unbreakable and the British, As They Always Did the British Were Geniuses That Cryptography and Things I Decoded Was the Famous Zimmerman Telegram Where They Germans Offered Mexico in Exchange for an Alliance and Attack upon the United States Offered Mexico the Return of Their Lost Province South West Corner of the United States When the British Quietly Gave This to the American Government American Government Was Convinced That Maybe It Was Time to Go over There and Defeat Germany and Save the British and French Is behind Us Because They Were about to Lose You Been Listening to John Steele Gordon Read a Story That Most of Us Didn't Know.

This Is Our American Stories and As You All Know by Now of Our Favorite Stories to Tell Stories about Businesses.

We Previously Told the Story of Jim King and How He Rose Out Of Poverty to Become the CEO of 7-Eleven and Save the Company from Collapsing after Filing for Bankruptcy Today.

Jim Joined Us Again Tell Another Story of 7-Eleven Jim with the Story around the Time the Company Filed for Bankruptcy. I Went to My Mentor at the Time the Person Who Encouraged Me to Come to 7-Eleven John Thompson Who Is the Son of the Founder of 7-Eleven Studied in Section 27 with Icehouse Stock in Class Just South of Dallas and It Was Selling 50 Pound Blocks of Ice to People to Put in Their Ice Box Literally No Refrigeration Time Can Just Plug in Refrigerator so It's Hard to Imagine That in 1927.

We Are Still Doing This and How Did You Get Ice to Dallas Texas so They Were Very Successful Company but It Was Quite a Process to Mind Ice Literally from the North to the South Store.

It Is in an Environment Knowing Federation Had to Store the Ice Literally Underground and Sell It in Small Blocks That People Could Put in the Ice Box to Keep Their so I Went to John Thompson and Said Should I Leave the Company That Career Choice Here Five Years and Still Pretty Young Guy You're Bankrupt with Banquet People Are Saying 7-Eleven Is No Need to Exist Anymore Because Stores Were Open 24 Hours Seven Would Also Give a Cigarette and He Said That's Precisely the Problem. He Said If You Go Back Just Tell You What My Daddy Told Me the Story of the Frigid Air Being Invented Sometime around 1928. We Were so Failing Ice and We Would've Gone Out Of Business. By 1930, but My Uncle Johnny Greaney Said Asking Customers What They Want What They Call Them Was Will Come Here for the Icemaker for the Convenience of Buying Ice from You House Really Nice Right for You. Make It Convenient for Now. We Got Frigidaire Ice Anymore Refrigerator Keep Things Cold When She Fell Asleep More Conveniently Than Having to Run to the Grocery and so They Did so That Literally Was the Birth of the First Convenience Store 711 Was Called.

You Told Him at the Time and End They Emerge from Their John's Lesson to Me Was That He Said Jim If You Dial 4 to 1999, One We've Gotten Ourselves to the Point Now Where We Sell Beer, Soft Drinks and Cigarettes Because Those Things Used To Be More Convenient to Buy Here Than Somewhere Else for Your Job Is to Find Things That People Need More Conveniently, and If You Can Do That. There's No Reason Convenience and Cigarettes May Diminish and I Took and I Took to Heart Stayed with the Company Started Coming Obsessed with Finding Things, Whether It Was a Multifunction ATM to Put in Every Store Prepaid Phone Cards That I Found in Asian Brought Back to the States Here with Bottling Scene Now Everywhere We Used To Differentiate. I Found That Product in Asia by the State Budweiser Make It First. Lots of Ways to Innovate with Convenience and That Differentiation and and Help Make My Career Talk A Lot about the American Dream.

I Talk A Lot about Being the Beneficiary of the American Dream. I Never Really Understood It or Talk about It Personal Terms until I Discovered from My First Generation 7-Eleven Franchisees with the American Dream Really Was and That Occurred in a Backwards Link Again and Occur through Crisis through Catastrophe Happened on 9/11.

We Were I Was on the Way to Work. I Was Actually Stopping the Office and Pick up a Bag and Head to New York City on 9/11 but I Got to the Office. Of Course, the First Tower Had Been Hit and My Flight Was Canceled and We Were All Gathered around the TV Is Trying to Figure out What Was Going on and It Wasn't Long. It Was Probably Right after the Second Tower Fell and There Was Now Confirmation That This Was a Terrorist Attack That We Started Getting Inbound Calls by Franchisees We Had in the Worst Case Right in Chicago and off Duty Police Officer Go up to One of Our Franchisees Seek Indian Gentlemen and Was Had to Go Back Home. The World Trade Center, so It Was a Blanket Stereotype. Everyone in Our Stores from Indians and Pakistanis to Mexican Immigrants Were Running a Store in the Store Were Perceived to Be the Problem Now Is Wake-Up Call for All of Us. We Invoked Our Y2K Protocol Which Is Interestingly Enough We Just Come through like 2K without Any Incident. Thankfully, We Put on Protocol in Place Allows Every Single Store Hourly Basis in Case of Problems with That Protocol in Place.

Shocked at the Number of Incidents That Were Occurring All over the Country in Our Stores Where First Generation Americans Were Being Persecuted for Their Image. Not Even Their Religion or Their or Their Ethnicity Just for Their Image in the Store As Non-American Perceived to Be Not American so We Put a Number of Things in Place. We Were the First to Reach out to the Red Cross and Said We Want to Bury Our Stores in Red White and Blue.

We Did the Little Blue Ribbons and Started Selling Them for a Dollar Contribution. One of the Red Cross Had Raised 300 Million Box in the First 30 Days to Be Able to Help in Some Way. Our Objective Was Somewhat Selfish Wanted to Americanize the Stores and Deflect This This Perception People Have Not American Following. We Begin to Talk to Franchisees Why We Have Been Jay Leno Jokes David Letterman's Jokes, Jay Leno One Time Word Here in Dallas and Walked off Stage and Was Laughing Whether Laughing.

I Sat down Told Just As Soon As You Walk the Stage That the Guy from 7-Eleven Who Speaks English and I Realize with That Is Not. Maybe It's What Why Are We so Heavily Minority in Our Stores and Start Asking Franchisees What Did You Become Someone Stores Well Very Much the Same, They Were Ironically There My Story I Came from Nothing Were Where I Came from a Country Where I Had Things in This Country with $500 in Suitcase. I Knew That Hard Work in This Country Would Payoff and so I Found That If I Go to 711 Store. I Can Work on My Own.
