No, buy all means I insist. I wouldn't want it any other way.

I knew that. My god-mother is from Jeffereson City. With the state police headquarters, Jefferson city police, and capital police their crime is zero. The safest place in the world to live Mizz-er-ie

I'll have to have you say the alphabet and a few special words, but honestly, in our conversations I never picked up on anything obviously "foreign" to SoCal. I have a friend born and raised in Boston. He decided, yes decided, when he was a young teenager that he wasn't going to talk with a Boston accent. He sounds like he's from Cali. But man can he launch into it. There also isn't that big of a difference out here in the west across large territories. You have to go East a ways before you start getting the real differences every couple hundred miles. But England is far more amazing. Literally within 10 miles you can hear RADICALLY different accents, using different vocabulary and everything. It relates to their rather long history and peoples who have just been where they are for the last 1,000+ years.

OK, Ben. We haven't spoken with each other very much. Did you pick up anything from me?

HP numbers are good and all, but they are like asking someone how much they can bench. What difference does it make if I can still kick your ass?
