NAME (JACK THOMPSON)
AMONG MANY SCOTS, ESPECIALLY IN SCOTLAND, A DRUNK MAN IS
DESCRIBED AS HAVING BEEN IN "OLD JACK THOMPSON'S BINS." THE
INFORMANT WAS TOLD THIS BY A MIDDLE AGED SCOTTISH MAN ONE DAY
WHEN HE TOLD HIM HIS NAME WAS THOMPSON. IT IS A WELL KNOWN
SAYING IN SCOTLAND AND IT PROBABLY CAME FROM THE JACK THOMPSON
BRAND OF SCOTCH WHISKEY.
