JEET YET?

I read that and understand right away what it means ("Did you eat yet?", which boils down to "Jeet Yet?" for Minnesotans).

Found this US Accent Quiz on the blogosphere (over at SillyHumans), took it, and it hit the nail on the hammer -

What American accent do you have?
Your Result: North Central

"North Central" is what professional linguists call the Minnesota accent. If you saw "Fargo" you probably didn't think the characters sounded very out of the ordinary. Outsiders probably mistake you for a Canadian a lot.

    Before part 1 of the JohNava saga, DavkaNehmadL did advise me:
    "If you like the Canadian lumberjack type, then by all means, go for The JohnnyB".

    Always complicating things, screwing up statistics.
