Archie Bunker

When my father was in his forties he greatly resembled actor Carroll O'Connor. Da loves to tell of the time he was leaving work in Center City (looking very Archie Bunker with his dark trousers, white button down shirt, black shoes and no tie) and walking to his car. A large black man walking the opposite direction, sees my father, pauses and says, "Eh, anybody ever tell you you look just like Archie Bunker, man?" Not skipping a beat, my father throws up his hands as if in a hold-up and replies, "I don't think like him, man!"
