Don had been in the army (as part of his African-American experience), so I figured he would know something about this. "Don, why is Stacey's face so weird?" He frowned, shaking his head slowly from side to side, "She jumped." (Oh... That's not what I had imagined.) Well, I suppose there are people who survive such things, and this is where you would find them. She's grotesque, but "I find that sexy," I admitted. "I mean, these things that should be... Or, I mean, would be negatives. I take them as positives, you know?" And Don (who had been in the army) said, "Well, that's part of your problem. If you were normal, you wouldn't give her a second thought." And I suddenly realized that Don wasn't black at all.
