Maryland is the great melting pot of the mid-atlantic, there’s all types. He’s probably from either the eastern shore or somewhere west of Frederick, and got lost on his way to liquor store or something and wound up in Bethesda.

My wife and I always play “What country is the foreign dignitary that tried to kill me from?” The closest call I’ve had so far was Turkey.

Close enough that he can withdraw below the Mason-Dixon Line if necessary.

Dang it. You’re right. I was thinking it was between VA-MD. And I used to live in VA. You think I’d know.

The Mason-Dixon lines is actually the MD/PA/DE border, so Maryland is and always has been part of the south. However it’s not traditionally recognized as such mainly because:
A) It never seceded from the Union. It probably would have but Lincoln, and Maryland’s governor who supported him, played dirty to thwart secession of the state by temporarily suspending the state legislature. While it was on hiatus they arrested several key pro-secession politicians and placed a US Army occupation force on Federal Hill, artillery aimed at the heart of Baltimore, before allowing the secession vote to occur. Otherwise DC would have been screwed being surrounded by 2 Confederate states.
B) Following the Civil War, the urban population has grown rapidly, filling in the triangle between Washington DC, Frederick, and Baltimore. Many of these people have migrated from other states to work in DC in the government or supporting industry. This has displaced a lot of the traditionally rural population to the eastern or western portions of the state and politically it has caused the state to lean more towards liberal-progressive side.

Yeah, somebody else already corrected me on that. I was thinking it was between VA-MD. And I used to live in VA. You think I’d know that. Interesting bit of history. Thanks.

I was just playing. For may, if you didn’t secede, you ain’t the south. Those people are morons of course.

Why have a US car when you’re a diplomat? Import all you can foreign dignitaries!
