I dunno, I spent about 6 months at Keesler in Biloxi and I came away with saying some weird shit like "tarred" instead of tired.

You came away saying that? Holy Cow!, I spent over twenty years in, and around, Knoxville, heard all sorts of things like that, but never used them. You must be easily swayed with things?

Now, I'll admit that my accent has changed over time, and I now sound a little like I am from Knoxville(pronounced "Knoxvll"), but its easy to tell that I am from East Tennessee.

Ah'm orignally frum South Cackalacky, and bn round the world as a miltary dependnt, but nevr piked up any aksent til goin' ta UT. NowhotImean?
