It’s a fundamentally elegiac culture. It’s always been that way though.

This quote is from the 1850s. The speaker is a Virginian.

quote:

We, who once swayed the councils of the Union, find our power gone, and our influence on the wane, as the other States accumulate the means of material greatness, and glide past us on the road to wealth and empire, we slight the warnings of statistics, and drive lazily along the fields of ancient customs.

My wife says Charleston is like a smaller version of New Orleans, but without the smell of piss and beer.




This is the correct answer.

My family hit Charleston Harbour in 1692 thanks to primogeniture. We happy when so many whose families were chasing herd animals with sharp sticks for a living aren't. Weird.

In the years that came we have had 7 Governors of the State in our family,a Governor of the Bahamas during the piracy days (He hung them like laundry) and countless business owners. Not exactly a subtle brag, but seeing what this country is devolving into, we better find us some MEN to start doing some work.
