davknight comments on Mar 16, 2019:

There were only a few hundred of them, largely deserters from the US Regular Army, lured into joining the Mexican Army by promises of post-war land grants. And owning one's own land was the primary hope of seventeenth, eighteenth, and nineteenth-century immigrants to America. Army wages would have hardly been enough for a soldier of that period to buy whiskey and prostitutes. So the Mexicans' offer would have seemed attractive enough. Unfortunately for the San Patricios, most of them were killed or captured by General Winfield Scott's army, during the Siege of Mexico City, in 1848. Those captured were promptly hanged, for being deserters.

A waiter came by a little later, and noticing the bowel was empty, asked if we wanted some more pickled sheep's eyeballs. My friends fell out of their seats laughing, and I started to get a queasy feeling in my stomach.

Britain's Queen Ann once hosted a delegation of Miccos (nobles) from the Creek and Cherokee Confederacies, who were bewildered by the effeminate looking men, and 'China doll'-looking women (aristocratic women painted their faces white, with just a touch of rouge, to make themselves look alive), who hung around Queen Ann's court. Afterwards, they decided that the English miccos must be homosexuals, or transvestites. And they began calling them "Yan-Kees", which was the Cherokee word for homosexuals.
