Theo Huxtable won't be down for breakfast

A black guy drowning is about as predictable as a white guy getting skin cancer. Still, it's a shame. Seems like he was a good dude.

In the 70s, Mom and Dad were selling the house. We had an in ground DoughBoy pool.
The real estate agent mentioned a black couple that wanted to make an offer but that it may be low because black people don't swim.
I still shake my head at that one. Who really thinks that black people can't swim?
The real estate agent said something stupid like their skin absorbs water so they cannot float or some other ignorant thing.

Environmental influences, for better or worse. My parents, NYC dwellers growing up, no access to water, couldn’t swim. As a result, beat on me to get good at it. Two years on swim team in public pool, in cold water. Supposed to be great for building mental toughness. Child abuse by today’s standards.

Wife grew up in a rural county, can’t swim. Her kid sister came of age 15 years later with a new public pool, swims like a fish.
