This explains a lot actually. Whenever I went to New England to visit some friends, people said I had a wonderful Southern Accent (hence the Dixie). Whenever I visited my relatives in the Carolina's, I was complimented on my wonderful Northern accent (hence the Yankee). And the Upper Midwestern? I guess you can't live in that area for 8 years and not pick up some idioms.
