I loved it. My favorite Pittsburgh foodie phrase is...

"D'jeetyet? No, d'jew?"

What I find most interesting is that you are able to write like you speak. It's almost scary. Who lernt you to do that?

that's a classic! dunno, joe. nobody taught me. i s'ppose i learned just by going by sound, then putting it onto paper. (keyboard.)

As a Wisconsin native, listen to the movie "Fargo". Yes, they really communicate like that.
