Uh, Hans? If that's supposed to be Gullah, it needs some work. Try reading some Mark Twain. I think he put it - or a dialect close enough to it - phonetically better than just about anyone.

Hans ban Beluwebuhn, Webuhbmasteh of de Unofficial Olympus OM Sales
Inf'mashun File ("e-SIF"). Do you habe commins, duuhhhh, ehrata or
suggesshuns, duh...uh...? Mail me! Huh huh!

I think it would read more like:
Hans ban Beluwebuhn, Webuhbmasteh fo' de ahn'fishul 'lympus Oh-Em Say-uhls Inf'mayshun Fahll ("e-SIF"). Djew hay-ub caw-mins, ee-ratta aww s'jesshuns? Den may me! Unh-huh!

Of course, that's just the regional flavor from the Okefenokee where I grew up. Your dialect may vary.

But keep working at it.  All my accents sound like the guys on Monty Python.
