ga.sparky56, anyone that thinks a local accent makes people not to "bright" is just showing there own short comings

I live 30 minutes out of Boston, MA and never really notice the local accent.

Then I saw an episode of "Cops" from Boston, the accent was worse then any faked Hollywood version I have heard, but it was real.

A "Simpson's" episode with a family that must have been the Kennedy's has a great time with this accent, and I must sound that way too. [Linked Image]
