and say, “Oh Behave.” Then regress to Sean Connery and in your best secret agent voice and say “Bond. James Bond.” But now add this new addition, “Meriwether is my middle name.” Indeed, this is my middle name, M e r i w e t h e r. You know, like Meriwether Farms outside of Richmond, VA. Or the same spelling as Miss America 1957, Lee Meriwether.
If you are an historian and live in Missouri, you could be familiar with the signposts along several State highways that mark the old Lewis and Clark trail on the way to Oregon. Lewis’ last name was also Meriwether, to which I am related. But good luck in spelling it on the fly. There’s no ‘h’ after the ‘w’ and there’s only one ‘r’. Also, there aren’t any ‘a’s in it either. Mayweather is also a more common, easily spelled newer version, and I can easily see why. This sounds and looks nicer.
Anyway, when the sun breaks out and the rains stops, this is a good time for me to point out my middle name, “Meriwether is my Middle name!” “Oh, Behave!”
