Which brings me to a story. Once, long ago, we were giving a party. An African-American co-worker arrived at the door and when I opened it to him, Primo - a former very black feline in our family - slipped out. My co-worker, Ron, reacted with a shudder and asked "How can you have a black cat in your house?"
I said "Why not, I'm letting you in, aren't I?"
(Ba-da-boom!)
