 Oh, ok i see how it is =) J/K. Actually, people i know from "Lawng
Island", and "Nu Joysey" both have the accent many think of being
typically New York. However, i think the funniest east coast accents are
those from massachusets. Like that carpenter guy Norm Abrams on PBS. Its
always funny hearing him say his er's like a's and his a's like er's.


I.E.: "Carla" becomes "cahler" and "broker" becomes "broka"
