for commenting lol
I went to New York many years ago when I was in my early 20's. I was talking to some girls i was staying with and they stop talking . I ask why I'm the only one talking and they said we like your southern accent. I said I didn't know I had a accent lol. i will check closer to see which it is.
i have check and I think I have them labeled wrong
