John

Bill of sale for a human being... The document was found with the photo above, a bill of sale for John, presumably the child on the left, being the older of the two. The sad, haunted eyes are a testament to man's inhumanity to man and child. Click to enlarge.

  5. I just put a story up about one of your ancestors. Toussaint is an unusual and rare name and this guy had many descendants. He was a great hero.

    Yes I am, they are giving him a little air time.
    Is it me or is DC struggling to perform.

  7. Rainy weather. Good for the crops and flowers but also good for the f'ing weeds.Just pulled out about ten thousand weeds and hardly made a dent. Comes from living so close to the woods.

    I will see it when we log off. Was he black or white or mulatto?

  9. DC is having a harder time getting the words out.His memory is probably going.His acting is definitely slipping down the toilet.If you want to call it acting.

    ReplyDelete
  10. He was black, self educated and brilliant and a little devious.He is still the most popular hero in Haiti.He led the revolt of the slaves and freed them.

    There's still a lot of Toussaint's in south Louisiana, both black and white. They say a lot of them and their kin went north so they could past.

  12. He liked to dress in colorful uniforms and wore a big plume (or cockade)in his hat and carried a very large sword.He became a general and later ruler of Haiti.

  15. The last name 'L'Ouverture', he gave to himself . It was a nickname that he was known by.It means ' the opening'. When he saw an opening he took it even if it meant changing sides.

    Shit, there was bootleggers and runners and if it was crooked, they was into it, and a lot of them believe in taking you down to the swamp and still do.

    I hope DC is preparing for the end of CSI:M because it won't be long now...people tuned in to see his old fart-ass and now he can't say a sentence without passing out.HA !

  24. When I was in the Everglades I sat and watched the gators for hours. They seem to move so slow and lazy and then all of a sudden they can move like lightening.

    ReplyDelete
  25. HA!! That's a funny picture. DC fainting after every sentence.A little man runs in, throws cold water in his face, stands him up and runs out again until the next sentence.

  26. I don't think this Ginger has a soul. That was the big debate on Southpark."Do Gingers have souls?"

    You become gator food.No you don't come back,yes my maiden name was Toussaint,and I have always heard some of our family came from Haiti.
    Yes I can use them and I was looking for the one Heidi had of them where looks like she was telling his ass off.

    I believe some ginger has souls but if DC was a brunette and had a soul it would be black as tar.
    DC has a lot to pay for, all the people he mistreated, and now he's reaching out to them.
    DC didn't learned a damn thing when Hollywood black-balled him. He was lucky and got another chance and then he became a diva.

  34. I am so f'ing glad BP has reached out to people with ideas.They think they know it all. That is a typical British attitude.Well, I think they have proved they don't know it all.

  39. Kev and Whitney did not like each other when they made 'Bodyguard'.

    The Picture of DC/Marg is on DCR , but Heidi moved things around so much it may be on DC and ME.

    Well, thats all he loss is hair.
    Kev lips look fine to me... maybe she was used to those big lips of Bobby Brown, they look like Mike Tyson punched him in the mouth.
    Kev is a very nice man, when he made the movie here , he stayed at the Eldarado and and brought his band here to raise money for Gustav. Oh yes he has a new baby I think, a very pretty wife.

  53. None of your relatives exist apparently.I can't find any of you.Not even in any professional directory from your area. I guess your whole clan keeps a low profile. Or maybe I have been talking to a ghost for going on three years....HA!!

    Now I am spooking myself out.I got shivers.
    I think I will be more low profile too. It's probably safer. In fact I think I talk too much and if you will excuse me for a moment I will delete some of my comments.

  60. Honey ,if you're a ghost ,you are the most fun ghost I have ever met.
    I meant no offence. The anonymity is aggravating sometimes.It is such a faceless thing.
    I am a truly trustworthy person. I am sure you know that after all these years. Everything I am comes out in my writing. You know my character and your intuition is pretty good.
    But, hey, I accept the way things are and I really think I should practice a little more discretion myself.There are crazy people out there.

  66. A lot of people in my family read this blog. I don't know how many follow the comments but I wouldn't want to hurt anyone.Of course I don't mind saying anything about Brian and myself.

  68. People are made a certain way.They like to become friends after a certain period of acquaintance. They naturally try to get closer, and include you in their family. It's human nature. I guess I am very naive and maybe we don't have so much to be afraid of up here. People are pretty much'What you see is what you get'.

    I remember the post you did about family and one of your friends asked you why was you so sappy.

    It really hurt, but I commented by saying I know what you meant.Nan asked me was you angry with me and I said yes.

  70. Anyway, I didn't intend to get into this stuff. I just came across Toussaint L'Ouverture by accident when I was looking up your little slave boys and found him fascinating.
