Back in my college days, there was a person in one of my classes that spoke with a strong New Jersey accent (or at least what I thought was one). I found out that he lived in the Midwest and asked how he got the NJ accent. He said that he had a speech impediment and had never been in NJ. I felt pretty small.

He said that he had a speech impediment and had never been in NJ. I felt pretty small. I felt the same way when I couldn't hide my surprise that the "British" woman was from Texas. The ironic thing is, I always thought her accent was beautiful and melodious. Oh well. :)
