Kent always makes fun of me because I have one or two words that are distinctly Boston (I have NO Idea where the "r" goes in the word "drawer" is it "draw"? "Droorer"? No idea.. And I Never Knew that Irish Claddagh Rings didn't have an "r" at the end of it). But I don't have a "Boston" accent. I spent 7th - 12th grade west of the 128 ring and No accent there!! But living in Florida and working retail we take people's telephone numbers. I can spend 15 minutes talking to someone and it won't be until I take their phone number that I can tell they are from Boston. There's something about the number "4" that is so distinctly New England (not just Boston - it's New Hampshire, Lowell, North Shore & Conn)
