What "Next Door" means in Texas

On March 29, 2007, in Meanderings, by Mitch Milam

A business associate told me this afternoon that he'll be in Houston on the 18th.  I told him I had no trouble running down to meet him.

When he questioned the distance, I honestly replied:

Anything less than 400 miles is considered next door in Texas.

 

( Houston is 250 miles or so from Dallas ).
