Milking it for all it’s worth Posted by Danny, on October 17th, 2007, at 12:11 pm
And fwiw, Ron Sparks came in a respectable second in yesterday’s contest behind Tennessee’s Ken Givens who was raised on a dairy farm. I have heard some take note of Ron Sparks’ southern accent before, but he sounds like a Midwestern news anchor compared to some of these guys. The occasion was the Sunbelt Agricultural Expo. 3 comments to Milking it for all it’s worth |

Speaking of accents, Steven Colbert had a good one when he was a guest columnist for Maureen Downd
Dowd last Friday, “And Fred Thompson. In my opinion “Law & Order” never sufficiently
explained why the Manhattan D.A. had an accent like an Appalachian catfish wrestler.”
I agree that second place is respectable for Ron Sparks, but it looks like the winner had about 6 times as much as he did. They say Givens grew up on a dairy farm and I guess the art of milking is something you never forget.
