Being from Oklahoma as well, I totally understand, wierd thing is though, I
never picked up the accent. While I was living in California, people
wouldn't believe me when I said that I was from Oklahoma. Now that I'm back
here, people think I'm making fun of them when I say "howdy" and they still
don't believe I'm from here either.

Oh Well....

I used to get made fun of when I moved to texas; because I pronounced
"root" as "ruht".  (think "rut").  Even the Texans didnt say it that
way. 8-)

(I'm from Oklahoma..)

"Why dont I finish this up as ruht and then we can all go yonder down
 to the holler and have us some chitlins and a coke" 8-)
