Any news on Phauxcon? I think that Philly is about as close to me as he is going to get...

I recently spoke to Xionin, and she says we'll get more info later this month. She or I will post it here as soon as it's available!
Mickey Finn:
Ok, Priscellie, just listened to the first 20 mins of the podcast, YOU'RE from Dallas, but your accent is too neutral and you say "yeah...." like a mideastener or Canadian...where are your parents from? :)
That's not a Philly accent, either.

My mom is from Abilene and my dad is from Dallas. They don't have Texan accents either! In fact, I'd be hard pressed to think of anyone I know that has a Southern accent. I do say "y'all" occasionally, if it makes you feel better. :D It perplexed my linguistics grad student ex-boyfriend, too.
Can you tell by the way I overenunciate my "s"s that I used to have a lisp?
Wolfhowls:
Hey Mickey if you can hold to places for my girlfriend and I. If we can't go I'll let you know Friday Apr 6.
Mickey Finn:
Sure. ;)
Priscellie, there's an old joke that no one in Dallas is FROM Dallas. ;) I grew up there, but I spent my pre-teen years all up and down the east coast.
I'll listen to the s's when I get a chance to listen to the rest of the podcast. Myself, I have a stutter, and it's funny when people tell me I don't. I think my body language covers it, since it's mild.
