I wasn't drunk either. I just had a bunch of stuff to do and didn't bother getting back on.

Not that I really care that much, but we're rooting for Seatle here...simply because Boston hates the Steelers and because the Seahawks QB is from around here, so there's still a hometown connection.

I rooted for Seattle because I have actually been to Seattle and thought it was quite nice ... not that I did them any good... I was just lost without any Rams in the superbowl to root for, I guess.
I used to work with a woman from Pennsylvania who was such a HUGE Steelers fan that she had accessorized her car with Steelers stuff, wore a jacket, all sorts of stuff, she was really off the hook... the thing that cracked me up, was she never pronounced it "STEELers" she always said "STILLers".
Since then I married Jim who is from Texas, and I now live in accent purgatory, so I guess STILLers was mild compared to my beloved who can probably make it into a word with 4 or 5 syllables rofl

Certain parts of Pittsburgh have their own accent so you just know from the way they talk they are from Pittsburgh.

Ooooo... I know a little Pittsburghese!

"Jeet jet?"

It translates into English as "Have you eaten today?"

I made up a "You might be a redneck if" for hubby a while back...

"If your wife has to translate to English for you to the Home Depot clerk, you might be a redneck" rofl
Amazing how one man could make 'Dowel Rod' sound nothing like that.

I have to side with Mo somewhat on that one... compared to Jee-um who was born and raised in a a town so small that the nearest bigger town is ALSO an unheard of small town... rofl
Mo on the other hand actually (I think she said) grew up in So California (at least for a while) so while she has certainly picked some up, she is still quite understandable compared to alot of Texas... funny story, last year I enetered a contest alomost every day hoping to win a house in Lake Tyler, TX and my brother said "Why? Jim already makes you nuts with his accent, if you LIVED in TX I think your head would explode!"
I believe he was right...

That convo was hilarious! Everyone was in stitches with Mo on voice insisting that there was no accent!

I know I was more than slightly amused. biggrin
