Re: Am I Racist?

What is the difference between a spade and a shovel?

Actually you got me wondering there Cashman. You know that "s" word used to be a derogatory term for a black person. (Are we supposed to say black these days or are we joining the "people of colour" brigade now? It all gets very confusing.) Anyway, I was wondering. Did it come from the phrase "calling a spade a spade" ?
