Maybe the "delivery" of Josh sound great for Brooklyn kind of guys, but not so much for french, spanish, german or any other people in the world. Well, maybe mattel does not care about that part of the market. And nevertheless it would be so easy: just tell the guy to try to talk as he was taught in his own school. Regards fernando
