NO NO. Yours is genuine; mine's a put-together in the 1930's in NYC. Scottish folk down through Canada to the U.S. Midwest to NYC; Irish FOB in NYC but respectable jobs--conductor on the NY Central RR.

My name really is Jerome. I promise. According to research by an author I met - I am descended from Nordic stock not French as some people think. The Disney surname used to be spelt D'Isigny many, many moons ago. I would not even know how to pronounce that. But you can call me any name you want - Mickey, Minnie, Donald etc. The only ones I will not respond to are Dopey, Dumbo or Goofy. Anything else goes.

You are either of Scots or Scottish descent - someone who is descended from Scotch is another animal entirely.

LOL on the Scotch (never picked up on it previously, well, maybe i did but chose not to answer because i seemed to rub Linda up the wrong way all the time for one reason or another)
