As an example I have a friend that is from Southern New Jersey & listening to him was a bit mind boggling @ first..

I had lived in the south as well as New York City so I could clearly pick up on his "southern drawl" w/ some phraseology as well as an almost Philly kinda accent on other words & phrases.... Also I had a girl friend from there & if you heard her talk you would swear she was from West "Virginie".......lol

Also many ppl in the more rural areas of Illinois, Iowa & Ohio speak w/ more of a southern, than northern dialect... You noticed that??

That's funny. I think NY accents sound good on men, dreadful on women. The Fargo/Palin accent is not appealing at all, IMO. Same with the Boston ones. I don't have an accent but if I could pick one, it would be an English one. I could listen to those all day and night.
