I'm pretty sure Chicago1 is still lurking around these boards somewhere, even if he doesn't post anymore....I hope so because he was a top bloke.
Anyway, a few months ago C1 and I had an argument over racism (it was during the Lleyton Hewitt thing at the US Open).
I made a joke about the pot calling the kettle black in regards to Richard Williams and C1 said that comment would be considered racist in the US.
Anyway, a few weeks ago I was watching Boston Public, a great American show (even if it is a little over the top).
One of the old white teaches said to his black assistant that she wasn't exactly attractive (Lipschitz to Marla for those who watch the show) and Marla replied "Isn't that the pot calling the kettle black?". The white teacher replied "Why do you always have to bring race into it?"
As soon as I saw it I thought of you C1, so I hope you read this thread!
Cheers.
