I went to meet LS abotu an hour before our theatre class today, and we ran into two others from our group, Sabrina and Andrew.

So we're chatting, etc, etc, and Andrew mentions to me that GG, our teacher, is American (which I knew) but also owns a plantation. And I'm like "WHAT? A plantation? Who owns a PLANTATION these days??"

And LS has the same reaction.

Sabrina, however, ahahahaha.

Sabrina: A plantation?? What, with SLAVES? GG owns SLAVES?!

Andrew, LS and I died laughing.

But wait! There's more! For the next TEN MINUTES, Sabrina kept insisting that he, or his family, must have owned slaves at ONE point or another.

Sabrina: Hello, a plantation? Run by slaves! Have you ever heard of something called COTTON? Hellooooo!

More laughter.

Now up to that point, she could have been pulling our legs or messing with us... but then she sounded SO UTTERLY SINCERE when she said this...

Sabrina: It's illegal, right, to own slaves?

I swear, my abs have been worked out for a full week.
