As a youngster, I learned the trumpet. I aspired to be as good as my hero, Louie Armstrong. My buddies even called me "Satchmo". That was the highlight of my short career.

Even today, when I hear a trumpet player, I mentally compare him to Louie Armstrong. Does that make me a racist?

Doesn’t make you a racist but probably does mean that you never heard Bix Beiderbecke play “I’m Coming Virginia”
