And some of it, again, is just how much alike their voices sound, so I may be off on the accents anyway. I was also going to mention that the really nice guy building our fence sounds a lot like <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1249256/" rel="nofollow">Larry the Cable Guy</a> in both voice and accent. And Larry the Cable Guy's not, like, my favorite comedian or anything (far from it), but it's hard not to smile when this fence guy starts talking. I half-expect him to say "git r dun" after every sentence, but then again, that would make him significantly less pleasant to be around. :) I don’t know anything about southern consonants (vowels, now that I could tell you at least a little about).

Cool. That just makes it more intriguing, then!

I don’t know anything about southern consonants (vowels, now that I could tell you at least a little about). But those kinds of explanations for linguistic things are ALWAYS wrong. ALWAYS.

The guy doing the carpentry on our front steps sounds exactly like Chris Cooper to me — voice, accent, everything — but Chris Cooper is from Kansas City, Missouri and the carpenter dude is from Memphis. That’s 500 miles apart.

A lot of factors play a bigger role within a region than location within that region, actually. Could it be class?
