if I'd only known this while I was still working... would have really added to my resume! I could have added Hoosier, west coast and southwest to my languages ! Maybe even 'Southern' since I've taken a few vacations in the south ???

I went to a funeral recently and actually understood what my niece from Arkansas was saying.

It is really pleasant to hear a true Southern drawl as it is spoken in very old B&W movies by beautiful Southern belles. What we get these days is a fake annoying twang that is 90% neutralized by the trend towards non-accent that the TV and media have imposed by years of exposing us to accentless actors and news anchors.
Hillary's fake accent is probably the most annoying of all.
