Re: Do all Yankees sound like this?
Of course, I live in Yankee Mecca...Massachusetts! At times though, I do miss living in Georgia, but not for the food. Too much of Fried Everything! Plus there's no such thing as real Italian food of any type. I used to have food items shipped UPS from New York. My wife used to let me know when my "Care Package" came in.

That guy didn't sound like a "real yankee" to me.

Hummm, it could be. Several of those states sound very similar. Mass is different from the eastern part (near Boston) and western (around Springfield). Connecticut has almost no perceptible accent. Either way, the accent in the video was a parody. Probably a conglomeration of a few New England accents.

Re: Do all Yankees sound like this?
I did like his safety tip about the beer can holder and helping to keep it cold while you worked with your power tools.Takes less room than a refrigerator. Now I can get that drill press I have been after. Yankees is smart. Ain't we'uns ?
Hey Teamster ? Do you really know what a Yankee is ? OK don't hurt yourself thinking abourt it. I'll tell ya. It's that string on the end of a Tampon.
