Anybody else know a mumbler?

We have one regular customer that is a total mumbler. He will start a sentence with decent enunciation but as the sentence continues it turns into mumbles.

In 1998, I knew a guy who actually spoke like that. For real. From backwoods, Virginia.
Gawd, you coulnd't get an intelligible word out of the guy.

I have a friend that hums nonsense whenever he's not talking (which isn't very often).

I've been told I mumble at times on the phone, and supposedly I have an accent, which makes me near incomprehensible to people from certain parts of the country.

My wife claims we have one of those in our house. Which is funny, because I'm generally pretty loud but I guess sometimes I lose enthusiasm partway through.
