"Let me tell you a story. Growing up, I lived in a classic American neighborhood. It was a veritable melting pot of hard-working Irish, British, English, Scottish, Scots-Irish, Welsh, and Northern Irish."

No mention of toothless women, toothless bloodhounds or trucks on blocks, and I didn't see anything about having a corn still in the backyard, so either it was an oversight on your part, which I doubt, or you're not nearly as backwoods as you might think you are.

Wait until West Virginia and Tennessee get NFL franchises. Then you'll see 75,000 overalls clad "Mountain Men" in the stands. Some of them might be Mountain Women, but you'll never know the difference.

Sooo... I guess that means mostly Scotish, with (perhaps) a touch of pre-famine Irish, and some German, maybe with a dash of Cherokee...


How could I possibly know that?

<<< mostly Scotish (hold the pre-famine Irish), and some German, with a dash of Choctaw. Rumors that the recipe also hides Cajun and Spanish abound.

White with a little bit of native American. With my mother's maiden name Farmer, I'd imagine that stemmed from the English.

If you must have an accent, I can't imagine a better one.
