I live in southwestern Virginia, very close to the Kentucky border, so I guess after mentioning Kentucky, you shouldn't have too hard of a time understanding what I mean. :laugh:
It's not horrible or anything, it's just pretty noticable and embarassing to say the least.

OT, but ...
Originally posted by ChubzI often get made fun of because of my "hillbilly" voice, but the ones poking fun at me know damned well that if they were face-to-face with me and criticized me in such a manner, I'd make them swallow every damned one of their teeth.
I was born and spent my childhood years in Ark. and had a pretty strong "cornpone" accent. We moved to Arizona when I was 8, and the way I talked got me made fun of quite a bit (and we all remember how much you wanted to be different from everyone else at that young age, right?). Over the course of 4-5 years, I was able to gradually change the accent. The kidding and ribbing steadily reduced as the accent softened,
Now, even though I've lived in Houston for almost 25 years, I have a generic American accent (but I do bust out with a "y'all" or a "howdy" every once in a while).
If you don't like the way you sound, you can remake your voice. Lauren Bacall (one of the most beautiful actresses of the last century, IMHO) had a thin, nasal New York voice when she was discovered. But just a year or so later, she had a soft, low, sultry voice with very little accent, simply from lessons and practice. And, as anyone who's seen her in "To Have and Have Not", "The Big Sleep" or "Key Largo" can tell you that she sounds wonderfully sexy. Most people remember her famous "You know how to whistle, don't you Steve? You just put your lips together and ... blow."
