And remember the white makeup of Geishas in Japan. Not sure what we can conclude from all this but, as a blonde, count me in the pale group - not as white as redheads though. I've given up trying to get a tan - I just try to expose as little as possible - not because of burning but because I just look so pasty.

Oh well, Johnny Cash helped turn his life around and his songs about it made him a legend and a very rich man.  A true American success story. BTW, The Beach Boys and The Grateful Dead covered the song.
