Learning a new dialect

Having a lot of fun with this website I found (well, Natalie sent it to me a while ago) but I am still having fun with it.
Here is me as a Redneck...

Whuffo' Aren Likes th' Library... When Hallie started Kinnergarten ah got th' bright idea thet ah was a-gonna start takin' Aren t'th' library on a regular basis. He absolutely loves it. Whuffo'? He gits t'take his Tonka book bag emppy an' brin' it home full of books. He gits t'run aroun' lookin' at all th' pow'ful right fine posters th' ladies haf on their desks...houn'dogs, Winnie th' Pooh... He carefully an' intensely picks out th' books he will be takin' home fo' th' week. Shet mah mouth! In fack at times it is down right frestratin'. Last week he'd take a book, inspeck th' covah, put it back, grab t'other, inspeck thet covah, put it on th' flore, flip through th' pages ev'ry so offen while still lookin' at books. He will finally find one wo'thy t'brin' home which he will then, finally put in his book bag an' corntinue leafin' through th' one on th' flore while findin' mo'e books t'take. Once done this hyar book, Aren then puts it back on th' she'f. We then ha'f t'go look through th' books thet yern't allered t'take home...th' huge ones thet yo' jest leaf through at th' table they set at. He also loves th' library on account o' yo' kin bet thet he won't be th' only li'l kid thar an'...thet means he has someone t'play wif an', eff'n it is a gal, bat his eyelashes at.

And Jive...
