Go spend some time in Jersey City. That's where that particular accent comes from.

If you live in NJ you already probably already know about weird NJ magazine but Ill post it anyway http://www.weirdnj.com/home/index.html . Some of the stuff they print is complete and utter bull but they do occasional have some cool/strange stuff that really exists.

The Encyclopedia is filled with fascinating and interesting entries ranging from New Jersey's earliest history to the present. For example-Did you know that New Jersey was once divided into two parts-East Jersey and West Jersey?
And Gods be willing the Sate shall again be divided; into South and North!
Viva la Revolution!!
Excuse me whilst I drive my pickup into the Barrens for this weeks secret meeting...... where's my hoagie?
