I'd have to go along with Hell on this one (and she does have a great NZ accent). There are other correct ways to pronounce Hejira, but this is the way I think Joni says it. I'm just glad my Mom doesn't try to pronounce it. I don't know if it's a southern thing, but she'd pronounce it Heh GEE Rer, like when she says Hawaiier and a million other things she puts a "R" at the end :) Jimmy
