A while ago, there was a discussion of "brits" living in Maplewood area. I forgot which one. But I have a question for you, or anyone who can answer this. Where does the term "blue blood" come from? I read that term a lot. Mostly refer to those of old money from the east coast, or the "not working" class, lords and ladies and such. Could anyone shed some light on this?
