brennenkc,

I LIVE in Goose Creek, SC. I'm originally from KS, so I don't have the heavy southern accent that the natives have around here. Some of them are impossible to understand at times!! I have hearing loss to boot so that doesn't help!!

I inserted a wink, a smile and a big smile after the comment on Ricky's accent. I wasn't slamming either Ricky or his accent. It takes all kinds of accents, except Joisiete and Bawstun accents to make this country go!!

For interpretation, maybe I should say that the New Jersey and Boston accents grate on my ears much more than the southern/hillbilly accents!!
