A Funny Thing Happened At The Ubahn Station

This morning, my black husband was waiting for the underground train home when a white woman, who he noticed had been staring at him, approached him on the platform and asked: "Do you have some white stuff I can buy?" In disbelief, my husband shook his head and told her that he had no idea what she was talking about. He telephoned me at my office right away to relay the story. Laughing, he added, "Why did she think she could come up to me? I'm the only black person standing on the platform and she comes up to me? Maybe if she had gone to one of the white guys, she would have gotten her fix!" Funny how the world works, isn't it?
