The Kansas accent is more or less standard except "always" is pronounced "oh-weez"

Also, each household will have exactly one person that pronounces "pillow" as "pellow" even though nobody else in the house does it.

I thought "Warsh" was a Baltimore thing, along with "Wooder" for water.

I imagine Bullet Bill was just alliteration and years later when the US team had to come up with a name for the torpedo they decided to retroactively complete the reference Or its both just alliteration and its a coincidence. Who knows?
