A man and his wife were driving their RV across country and were nearing
a town spelled Kissimee.

They noted the strange spelling and tried to figure how to
pronounce it - KISS-a-me; kis-A-me; kis-a-ME.

They grew more perplexed as they drove into the town.  Since they were
hungry, the pulled into a place to get something to eat.

At the counter, the man said to the waitress: "My wife and I can't seem
to be able to figure out how to pronounce this place.  Will you tell me
where we are and say it very slowly so that I can understand."

The waitress looked at him and said: "Buuurrrgerrrr Kiiinnnnggg."
