Goin' ta Giant Eagle to get some jumbo and gumbands {#emotions_dlg.laugh}

When our Giant Eagle had the "Iggle Video" department, I swear I was the only person around here who 'figgered aut' why it was called that! LOL

ha! My sister in law from Texas was just here, we were outside at my FIL's garden and I told her to watch out for the "jagger bushes" {#emotions_dlg.lol} She had no clue what I was saying{#emotions_dlg.blink}

I seem to pick up on the accent of wherever I've lived, 7 states and 3 European countries.

Wow. You lived in Europe? How long were you there? I would love to live in Ireland or England for a little while just to experience it.

Hey Mel: It's not as pronounced as deep as a true Bostonians, but it's there. Most people here think it's NY. I'm just glad they don't think it's New Joisy.{#emotions_dlg.laugh}

Car, water, "r" words are more noticeable with me.

Do you say an /r/ where there isn't an R? Like Lisa would sound like Lee-sur.
