early father's day showertime epiphany

although we differ strikingly in what are perhaps only superficial ways, i find that by and large, i'm a chip off the old block.

this pleases me, because, again, by and large, i could have done a lot worse, considering just what blocks there are in the world for me to have alternately been a chip off of. i lucked out and ended up with a set of inheritable qualities that have served me well.

cheers.
