I get most of 'em, but living this close to the northern border gives me an advantage. Heck I understand the dialect and lingo a heckuva lot more than I do than from all y'all southerners!

Which reminds me...only 17 days and counting 'til I'm in Manitoba for the annual 10 day father-son waterfowl whackathon!
