OK, so in this neighborhood, we joke about how having a dog ties you into the whole neighborhood gossip circle. However, walking a cat means your neighbors stop by to chat as they come home from their evening's adventures.
When KO was on Sportscenter, he used to have an "um" counter...numbers would flash, a bell would ding...which is incredibly obnoxious, but considering these are inarticulate people who could buy and sell my whole family, I never felt closer to a famous human being.(I've only seen it on the internets...sportscenter debuted at the apex of my "Sports? Ew!" period.) I'm Heinz 57...my grandfather went to an Indian college that still graduates many chiefs to this day.
Hrmp. The Scots totally owned slaves. There was a huge Scottish enclave around in South Carolina, and they were, indeed, slave owners.
There waa also an enclave of Scots in New Jersey around the same time, but they were Quaker, and slavery is NOT something Quakers would do.

That article doesn't jibe with most of what we've been taught. The assumption has always been that my father's Scottish name was through slavery, but the massive bulk of Scots in Jamaica weren't rich enough to earn slaves--they came in with the Chinese and Indians to replace the flow of workers that stopped with the end of the slave trade.
Most Jamaican Scots are poor as shit and have always been so. The English occupied most of the monied landowner positions.

I approve of your green chile cheeseburger! I had a tasty but unhealthy pasta with yogurt. I added hominy and chickpeas in an attempt to healthify it but I was actually supposed to just have the hominy and chiockpeas and not the pasta. Oops. But it was nom.
I need to go to Golden West and get their green chile cheeseburger. Ain't perfect, but I think they use hatch chile. I miss Sonic and The Shack and the Owl.
Scots immigration to America is SO not my area of expertise, but I imagine out of the 10,000 Scots they posit who were in Jamaica, at least 1-2% of them would have been wealthy enough to own an estate, and therefore, slaves.
This also seems to have some decent scholarship that talks of Scottish presence in the Indies, indentured servant, merchant and wealthy landowners.
Will the TSA take a copy of a passport as ID?
A copy or the passport itself?
