Too funny! I had an Aussie friend on a chat room years ago, named Steve. He sent me a voice recording of all the Australian sayings he could think of. We talked on the phone once (with a phone card..before cells became popular) and he could have been cussing me out, I didn't care; I loved his accent! :)

Thanks for the welcome Brittany!

LOL!!! Yes, I quite know the feeling! I found my friend after like ten years (or did he find me?) and we're friends on Facebook now, and he writes these status updates with all this slang that I have no idea what he is talking about. Do I hit "like"? Is this good or bad? Luckily it doesn't matter on FB if I pass something up instead of when we were face to face and he had to repeat everything like three times before I would just smile and nod :P I wonder why he put up with me . . .

I do love just listening to accents, though, if I don't have to understand what is being said and can just enjoy them. It's a lot like music, isn't it? Or maybe it is taking something that has become ordinary and making it more interesting?
