“”I should explain to your Lordship what is meant by crackers; a name they have got from being great boasters; they are a lawless set of rascalls on the frontiers of Virginia, Maryland, the Carolinas and Georgia, who often change their places of abode.” [1766, G. Cochrane]”
Cool.
Now I’m a hillbilly cracker...:)
Bumping because this made me laugh harder than anything else did today!!!
