When I travel through the 48 states by car, I am always struck by the different accents to be found in this great nation which is 'indivisible' except for the variations in speech.

Going from East to West' via the South, I find 'you guys' becomes "youse guys" which morphs into "y'all" and later to "you'uns" etc.

But the strangest speech of all is in the mid-west. When people hear my Boston accent they say, you must be from 'Mass-a-too-setts'.

"No", I reply. "I am from Mass-achoo-setts - the state that sounds like a sneeze! a-choo!"

Karma and the Little Girl from Provincetown - A Christmas Tale

Notes by Bill Russo

Here's the video version of my short story, Karma and the Little Girl from Provincetown.

It looked like another sad Christmas for an unlucky fisherman from Pronvincetown. Everything changed a short time before the holiday, when his daughter Maria managed to find a treasure on the beach. How to turn the 'treasure' into something that would change the family's fortune was something that only Maria knew.
