Famous occasion when FDR was dining in Nawlins and the official turned to him and said "How do you like them Ersters." One of the more interesting linguistic phenomena in the U.S. is the commonality of many English sounds in Brooklyn, Norfolk, Charleston, Savannah, and New Orleans that is characteristically Irish in origin. I remember on the watch asking a black marine from Charleston why he was sprawled on his bunk and not at the training session --- he replied "Oim gewing dan to ba-esball prectice!" My grandmother from Charleston talked with exactly the same accent, "Moi Gawd, Oim gewing mod in this heat!" <<Suck the head, squeeze the tip - the technique for eating crawdads>> Is that what they call those things in New Orleans?
