    This was normally used as an expression about questionable ancestry, or something not quite right in general. I recall a WC Fields line from back in the days of censorship in movies: "I think there is an Ethiopian in the fuel supply."

    I am old enough to have lived with segregation and race riots. I have watched with pride and amazement as we have collectively lifted ourselves out of the dark depths of bigotry. Not that it's over by a long shot, but I am amazed at the progress even in my short time.

    Still, despite that, I hate PC. You know my sense of humor. I am completely irreverent.

    Then again, I am the token white boy at my 2nd job and I often get introduced as "whitey".... :D

    that post - if you check the date, was about a decade ago. I can't even recall what was for breakfast yesterday.
