re: #287 theheat

My mom wants to use the friend of ours that does yard work, because I’ve been singing his praises for a couple years. He’s black. Looks like Yaphet Kotto. I told her I wouldn’t do that to him. I didn’t want to subject him to some offhand horrible comment my dad might make, and feel like I had to apologize to him forever, while explaining I’m not like that.

Which is too bad, ‘cuz they could use the help. Their yard looks like poop.

Could he maybe come by while your father was at a long doctor’s appointment or something? (Had to look up Yaphet Kotto.)
