I thought that was his porpoise accent that he picked up during his mermaid days.

That is Merman.

I didn’t notice it while watching the movie but I think you are right. It is the same voice.

Doesn’t Grime(s) and coalminers go together?

How black of her to make the mix.

People of Kentucky, please write in Matt Bevin for Senate. The two Dems running (yes Mitt, you are) should lose.

Thank God she wasn't doing an ad for the fishing industry. We might have gotten a merman!
