    Well my fellow Canadians, guess we all sound the same. I took the test and just about fell out of my chair laughing when it said North Central - probably mistaken for a Canadian. This was fun, thanks.

    Well, they couldn't have pegged me any better than the Inland North since I grew up in Wisconsin and live in the Chicago suburbs. But they really got me with that first sentence.

    You may think you speak "Standard English straight out of the dictionary" but when you step away from the Great Lakes you get asked annoying questions like "Are you from Wisconsin?" or "Are you from Chicago?" Chances are you call carbonated drinks "pop."

    Your accent is the lowest common denominator of American speech. Unless you're a SoCal surfer, no one thinks you have an accent. And really, you may not even be from the West at all, you could easily be from Florida or one of those big Southern cities like Dallas or Atlanta.....

    ...and you guys laughed at the way I say "about"...eh???
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!
