I was amused by the Lawng Ahhlanders I met in college who told me I had a southern accent. (Well, it is southern PA.) The longer I live in Pittsburgh, the more I get the
yinzer accent and the more the people from my hometown sound REALLY country.
My mother passed away a few years ago and everyone always said we sounded exactly alike on the phone. Sometimes when I am at my dad's I'll pick up and answer and I can hear the person on the other end doing a "double take" until they remember it's me.
Tracy, you do NOT sound like Joey Lauren Adams. If you did, I could never have hung out with you for an evening, LOL. Her voice drives me nuts.
