Minutes ago I walked into the Tower Road library to do a little work before heading home.
As I take my seat I spot an African-American man who has tremendous dread-locks (sp?)... my eyes lingered longer than a glance. I suddenly thought, "Wonder what he thinks about this goofy white guy staring at him?"
SO...... i said, I'm gonna just say hey and tell him the truth:
"Hey man. Sorry I was staring. But you've got some awesome hair."
He smiled and said, "No problem, man."
He left a few minutes later. Maybe as I felt good about our interaction.... he grew more nervous the more he thought about it?
