Stupid bit of randomness

Okay, I used to do these silly quizzes LOOOONG ago when they were, like, new and novel. Rarely since have I found one worth my time. This one I stumbled upon from ClayJar's site and I was interested. Mostly because, at work, I'm always asked if I'm from (insert your favorite midwest state here). Um, no - Born in Washington, raised, lived, schooled, worked, hung out and every core of my being is a NEVADAN! But, inevitably, someone asks where I'm from.

How I got an accent from a place I've never been is beyond me. But... this handy quiz (which seems much better than any Quizzilla one) was helpful...

What American accent do you have?
Your Result: The Midland

"You have a Midland accent" is just another way of saying "you don't have an accent." You probably are from the Midland (Pennsylvania, southern Ohio, southern Indiana, southern Illinois, and Missouri) but then for all we know you could be from Florida or Charleston or one of those big southern cities like Atlanta or Dallas. You have a good voice for TV and radio.
