I never fully thought this through, but after being jailed for robbing a bank my dad worked as a programmer for a bank in the late 1960s.

Meanwhile my mom was a nun - full penguin - for about a decade.

So dad was an ex-con programmer and mom was a penguin.

Was there ever a chance of me doing something other than coding daemons on #Linux systems?
