My Cajun cousin-in-law has a great accent. I just wish I could hear it more often.Bag Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01885412195900280096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10997257.post-13432529992149118352011-12-15T14:46:54.316-06:002011-12-15T14:46:54.316-06:00I would've thought she was talking about Mongo...I would've thought she was talking about Mongo, too!<br /><br />Accents around these parts are indeed fascinating -- kinda like Joisey Shore meets Scarlett O'Hara and the Beverly Hillbillies.Moogie Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05665429537064900337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10997257.post-12450181978494851232011-12-15T13:58:23.598-06:002011-12-15T13:58:23.598-06:00Buck,

Unlike me, she is not so proud of her Tex/Mex/Okie heritage and maybe putting on airs or trying not to be so Texican.<br /><br />Deb,<br />Verb usage is tough on Okies.

Does she say "to-MAH-to," too?<br /><br />Good on ya for correcting the young lady. I don't think I would have been as kind and gentle but I certainly would have been as persistent.<br /><br />I think I need to rent "Blazing Saddles." Just the thang for the holidays.<br /><br />wv: coprad.
