Sorry, I meant sought. Though with my particular accent, certain consonants do get dropped, namely consonants at the end of words. Things are very fast and clipped, with hard r's and very nasal. If you've ever heard a Minnesota or "Yooper" accent, that's pretty close, but a straight Michigander accent is a bit pulled back. Watch clips of the movie "Escanaba in da Moonlight" and you'll hear what I mean by Yooper accent. The movie (and play it's based on) is set in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, also known as the "U.P." from which we get "Yooper." It's a fun accent to listen to.

Those with a lisp turn s's into th's, but that's not really an accent, it's a speech impediment.
