IS that a good or bad thing? I have tried all my life not to be like my father... thought provoking senryu...

I always said i would never be an old fuddy duddy. That I would always be the cool dad...but life has its own plans, I guess. I think it's a good thing.

This sure is true in my case. I like your Senryu, my friend. Write On! Bill

Thanks Bill. I remember when i was a teenager, I could have swore that I was adopted. It seemed like I was so different. But age has definitely proven that theory wrong.

Dear, Jerry, this had a very nice twist that I enjoyed. A very thought provoking piece that genetically can repeat. - Blessings, Daniel
