I recently answered a telephone survey and one of the questions was "Race." I 
hate that question. For me, it is irrelevant -- Black, white, whatever -- I 
don't consider the fact that my skin is white to have any bearing on who I am. 
When I'm asked that on forms, I fill out "Jewish."

I answered, "Jewish." He pressed me -- "Caucasion?" I said, "What does it 
matter?"

What matters to me is what kind of human being I am, and I hate it when people 
look at me and see only skin color.

And I want a Straight Parade!!!
