Ed ... about the word colored ... reminds me of a story (here we go again--Jim and his stories) <br /> <br />One of my best college friends was Eric--Eric was black. I had seniority among student and could choose my room and my roommate. Every student wanted an "end room" because they were 1/2 again as large as the normal rooms. So naturally I choose one. Eric was of course my roommate. Not because we had to be but because we wanted to be. I was a basketball team manager and Eric was a player. The other team manager was Amy. One day Amy was showing a possible b-team recruit around the gym and came across me doing something (what I don't remember) she introduced he and I and made the statement that Eric my roommate was colored. I looked at her and told her Eric was NOT COLORED. She looked at me like I should be committed. Her mouth dropped to the floor. She was dumbfounded. [:0] [:0] [:0] Then I told her that Eric was black. She just didn't know what to say to that, so she just continued her tour. Later that day I told Eric about the conversation and he about fell out. It became a joke between he and I that he was a "rainbow person". [:D] [:D] [:D]
