I never gave the race thing any thought.
Cool nickname though. I thought it was something to do with pirates (Buccaneers). Your avatar kinda gave it away.

You didn't have a picture posted as your avatar, but instead a pirate image, so I figured you were a bald guy that liked pirates. I didn't assume you were ANY race...cause I didn't try to imagine what you looked like. Why would it matter what color your skin is? Some people have issues.

Hey dude,

In all honesty I thought you were black AND into pirates...

I mean you do have a pirate flag and all and black seemed like your description...

whatever....

You ARE a cool dude and whatever color, THAT is what matters. Color is NOT an issue with me...EVER, and why would it be really?!?

You add a lot here, so thanks for that too!

Keep it SLY matey..arrrggghhhh!

Just kiddin'! ;)

Not to me, but it does to some people...you'd actually be surprised

I'd really like to know who it mattered to on this forum.  I'm hella curious since no one has ever PM'ed me asking "Hey guy, noticed you were black....".  I think I'd LOL in real life if that happened.

I couldn't figure out whether you were a card shark (black jack) or a pool player (rack 'em up)... seriously, it never even crossed my mind what you were, nor did I care.  I hesitate to speak for everyone here, but I think we're all beyond caring about people's ethnicity.  By the way, I'm somewhat of a European mutt - Irish, English, Swedish, Belgian, etc., but I just call myself 'A Proud American.'
How is that Hopey / Changey thing working for you?

WOW! I've been gone way too long. Sorry I missed this post when it first came on-line. But now that I've read it BJR, I'll put my $.02 in.

Never dawned on me one way er 'nother....

Ditto, dude! O0

Tis better to have a bald head than no head at all.

Never thought about it.  i thought "Black" was your name.   

Being brought up in the South, I've been around all kinds of crap.  Boy, the stories I could tell.

I always assumed the Black came with the pirate thing. 
People are not limited by the circumstance that they are born in. They are limited by the size of their dreams. Show them that their dreams can have no limits and in turn their accomplishments can be limitless.
