Like Father, Like Son

I guess the saying "if you can't beat them, join them" really does hold some water.

I was driving through town when I pulled up beside a convertible Mercedes. In the car were two very well dressed guys, one in his mid fifties, the other either graduating high school or else a freshman in college. Both were smoking cigarettes.

I was like WTF? My father would cut my lips off before watching me smoke a cigarette. I didn't even have my first beer with my father until I was done with college. I guess my conservative upbringing is the reason I was shocked to see this father-son duo smoking.

Does anyone else find this a bit unnerving?
