Me Bad English?

Texas and the South have a lot of colorful sayings too. We hear a lot of the British accent here - about 1/3 of all our television programs are from the UK. I do okay with it until they get too far north. Then I have to really listen. My husband (and most Finns) can read the text. Sometimes, that makes more sense to me than the bleeding accents. And now that I have been away from Texas, I have a bit of a harder time with them thar Southern drawls. Written is so much easier.
