I have no recollection of this incident, but my father swears it is true, and (as you might imagine) he was MORTIFIED.

The first couple years of my life, we lived in a rural area of Western New York that was ... not to be too non-PC ... bereft of any minorities. When I was about 3, we moved to Columbia, SC. Different story. So we're in the Piggly Wiggly one day, and I see a black man for the first time in my life. "Hey Mister, why'd you forget to wash your face?"

After that, we shopped at Food Lion.
