I knew I was a younger man. I just thought I lived closer.

I have a friend who had a bone marrow transplant as a leukemia treatment. He was cured but developed a peanut allergy from the donor.

Thanks for the Ping. As far as I know, the military didn’t genetically modify me - but there is the question of whether my Dad ‘is’ my Dad, or if the Mailman rang twice! ;)

(J/K Maybe...)

Might be a great way to commit the perfect crime.

Before credits roll of the movie "Citizen X"**, there's a comment that a female Russian forensic examiner who missed the culprit's DNA, claimed that people could have two DNAs. The comment added she was not believed. (CYA)

**The horrific 1980s serial murderer who, over a period of years, killed over 50 people, mostly 17 and under. He was caught and executed. The real criminal was the Soviet bureaucracy ("Only the decadent West has serial killers.") GREAT movie, BTW.

My dad laid out the family tree for my sister in law cuz she asked. Seems like there were a lot of mail going around from branch to branch in the past that I never heard of. :-)

Oh well however it turned out, we’re here. :)
