Yesterday we picked up a couple of things at the computer store. After paying I stuffed them into my big purse. As we were leaving we had to wait because the greeter was examining the contents of bags just purchased by three young African American men.
When our turn came, the greeter smiled and just tried to wave us on through. But I insisted on taking out our merchandise and receipts, just like the fellows before us.
On the way to the car Dave said,
"Aren't you glad you didn't steal anything?"
I thought about that for a minute and said,
"I guess I'm glad I'm old and white."
