Paige on Virgin River blew her cover when she said her father grew up on a peCAN

(like a can of beans) farm in Texas. No one, no where in Texas says pecan that way. Really important stuff, I know but surely there is a Texan on that huge cast and crew.

I wish I could deck some of them with a peCAN (an empty one, of course}. Old house with a big attic that they love to get in. Had a bunch of work done to "fill" all the openings but they are back with a vengeance. Went up to get some items down and there was one just chattering at me. Wish I believed in killing things, I would do it. Maybe I just might change that philosophy. Thanks for the funny comment.

It makes me crazy. If you're going to have people speaking with accents, you'd better have a dialect coach on the staff.
