Natalie Holloway not such a Goody-Two-Shoes after all?

Okay, as long as it's Miracle Whip.

"There are various theories about the origin of the term "cracker." The term has been traced to the 1760s, when it was used by the Earl of Dartmouth to refer to frontiersmen who were "great boasters." It may be derived from the Gaelic "craic," meaning "entertaining conversation." Other theories include references to cracking a whip over oxen when driving cotton to market, and to the 18th century practice of cracking corn to make liquor. Others suggest that "cracker" derives from the white overseers who cracked the whip to intimidate black slaves. There may also be another possible origin - the first residents of Georgia were British convicts. In this setting the word takes on an illegal or criminal context. The term was used by Charles Darwin in The Origin of Species to refer to "Virginia squatters" (illegal settlers)."

 No support for the whip cracker hypothesis.

That is the name THE MAN gave to me. It is offensive and does not take into account my rich ethnic heritage.
