The two columns, Jachin and Boaz, are the symbols of that profound faith and implicit trust in God and the Redeemer that are the Christian's strength; and of those good works by which alone that faith can be established and made operative and effectual to salvation.
-Morals and Dogma, p. 641

So I watched the first part of the Frontline/David Sutherland documentary "Country Boys". Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] darness for reminding me that it was television.

Forget the fact that it is a poignant portrayal of two young men who overcoming odds in an economically depressed part of the country. Forget that I think the science teacher isn't. Forget the fact that Cody's girlfriend's parents are going to shit a brick when they watch the entire documentary.

What should be noted here is that after an hour of watching this program, I began to think with an eastern Kentucky accent. I can only imagine what I would sound like after a week in the Appalachians. I'm so glad I don't have to talk to anyone for the next seven hours.

I want to go back in time and slowly watch the transition of accents from British, which sounds so cool, to Dueling Banjese.
