It's even better with the Okie accent. My grandparents were blown out of Bastrop County Texas by the Dust Bowl; then they moved to an even shittier corner of the world. My grandfather cleared his throat a lot, whistled tunelessly between his teeth and had a hard time with words that end in -ire. "Go put your boots to warm up by the FAAAAAHHHHHHHHR." "If'n we're gonna make that fence elecric we'll need some WAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHR." "The bologna's good. It's made by Oscar MAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHR." So when he said "he could die" It was actually more like. "Yeh. Mhh huh. Soon as that thing makes some walnuts I reckon I can dAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH." Think I still have some walnuts from the first crop somewhere.
