Alabama English and A Quiz

There are four people I know that share some very unique qualities:

1. they all work on horse farms
2. they are all black men
3. they were all born and raised in the Southeastern United States
4. they are all great at what they do
5. they are all dear friends of mine
6. they are all fluent in Alabama English

Alabama English is an easy to learn variation on regular English. You, too, can be fluent in under one day. All you have to do is change "tr" to "cr." Let me give you some examples...

"I need to get the oil changed in my cruck, but first I have to jump on the cractor and harrow the racecrack because we have a crainer coming to visit the farm this week. The crainer will be coming scraight here from the airport. I also need to bring my rockweiller to the vet for his shots. "

See how easy it is to learn Alabama English? Now for the quiz part:
I am going to let you guess the last names of these four guys. The number of dashes is the number of letters in their last names and there is a clue beside each of them. It's a very easy quiz that 97% of first graders can guess the answers to in less than 10 guesses. There are no points or prizes awarded. Play only for your own personal enrichment. Good luck.

2. Gene - - - - (a Gillette razor brand)
3. Henry - - - - - - ( a Texas city)
4. James - - - - - - - - (a city in Ohio starting with "H")
