Worked really hard as a kid to use the English language in proper fashion , studied the speech patterns of famous writers , hell , I can't bare to read any book written in local vernacular . Listened to the best orators , sought out those who sounded intelligent , and mostly speak sans terms like Youse guys , ya'll , bitchin' , groovy , gnarly , etc . My speech patterns represent all of that hard work . The problem is , after living in deep east Texas for several years , followed by NW Arkansas , then Muskogee for 30 years , I still manage to sound like an Okie , an educated hopefully well spoken one , but still an Okie At times like now when the allergens are peaking , my normally baritone voice comes out more like a 100 year old man who has imbibed too much whiskey for 80 years , Smithswede does almost all of my public communication in Cedar Vale for the simple reason that even amplified I am still barely audible by Friday Dusty
