Some part of my family was probably owned by a Ramsey (or Ramsay - spelling didn't seem to be very important in those times). That's part of the reason for me changing my last name to Clearlake. The main reason was because it sounds more Native American and I wanted to connect with that part of my heritage (very important to my paternal grandmother).
So, in a sense, I've come full circle and have embraced the Scottish connection as well by ordering a Hunting Stewart tartan kilt.
The connection is that some members of the Ramsay clan were very helpful to the Stuarts.

But that's not why this Black man wears kilts. I wear them for style and comfort. But it's nice to have a story to go with it when I'm pressed for one.
Formula 51 is a positive movie if you can get past the swearing and gross-out sight gags. The bad guys end up with less than nothing. The good guy wins in the "end".
