Merry Christmas From Nova!
"Merry Christmas, Mes Amis. In dis box is a bit of magic. De hint of a smile at de corner of de mouth. De sound of a child's laugh. A warm drink on a cold day. De soft feel of a hug from someone important. De smell of baking. May you have dis magic on Christmas, an' keep it in you heart de year round."

Until one of my vocal cords became paralyzed, I could do a pretty good Cajun accent myself even though I had never visited Louisiana any longer than it took me to drive across the state. But, at one time, I had about 10 or 15 Justin Wilson albums and I would listen to one a day until I understood all the nuances of the accent. I even fooled a woman from Lake Charles into thinking I was Cajun. That made my day.
I learned a long time ago that I had the ability to recognize accents and, equally interestingly, an ability to imitate accents. I had learned a general British accent by the time I was 10 and I learned a few more over the years until I heard Justin Wilson. Then, it became my passion to learn that accent. I can still do it but, because it takes so much breath for me to talk without an accent, I just don't try making the effort to talk in another accent. For a while, I was an amateur stage actor and I used my accent ability to land several nice roles.
