the old lab rat
worn engineering texts
his holy writ

Thank you so much for your positive comments! Yes, the "I" in this story is me, or was in 1981, when I wrote much of it down before the memories had a chance to crystallize into something else.

just ones and zeroes
yes's and no's
a game of 20 questions

I had to be dragged kicking and screaming into fatherhood. The enormity of the task – in both duration and import – terrified me. There was no way, I felt, that I was qualified to become a father. Maybe it’s because my own father was such an imposing figure to me that even in my 20s I sometimes won...
