Dave Rubin of 96 Third avenue, a native of Russia, once was proud of his blond hair. When he opened a grocery store Teutonic trade was lured into his store by the golden tresses.
Then came Hitler and Dave lost quite a few German customers.
This was understandable. But Dave has discovered recently that many Jews in this German neighborhood mistake him for a German because of his hair and therefore refuse to trade with him.
Between the devil and the deep blue sea Dave is getting himself a nice head of gray hair.
