THE BIG NEWS IS THAT I GOT MY SON ( PENDING DNA TEST RESULTS ), G.D.G., TO DO ALL THE RESEARCH AND WORK TO SET UP THIS WEBSITE.
SO, MAYBE I HAVE A VERY CONCERNED AND CONSIDERATE SON.
ON THE OTHER HAND, COULD THIS CHUMP, WHO DID ALL THIS WORK FOR NO PROFIT AND NO MATERIAL GAIN, POSSIBILY BE MY OFF-SPRING -- I WOULD THINK NOT.
NOW, DO I CONFRONT HIM WITH THE FACTS OF LIFE AND TELL HIM OF THE CONTROVERSY SURROUNDING HIS ORIGIN. THAT MIGHT BE THE RIGHT THING TO DO - THE ETHICAL THING TO DO - THE MORAL THING TO DO.
THEN, THERE IS THE MORE PRACTICAL SIDE TO THE ISSUE - IF I TELL HIM WE ARE NOT EVEN REMOTELY RELATED -- WILL I STILL BE ABLE TO GET THIS LEVEL OF PRO BONO SERVICE FROM HIM?
AS MY SOCIOLOGY PROFESSOR USE TO SAY WHEN FACED WITH A DILEMMA -- "WHAT TO DO, WHAT TO DO?"
I THINK I WILL DRAW UPON ONE OF MY EARLIEST INSIGHTS AND GO WITH THE SAGE ADVICE THAT --- "WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW, WON'T HURT YOU."
I MIGHT TELL HIM NEXT YEAR -- IMAGINE HOW DISAPPOINTED HE WILL BE THAT I AM NOT HIS DAD ------>>>>
I WON'T MENTION IT UNLESS AFTER APRIL 15th ------>>> I AM AS SENTIMENTAL AS THE NEXT GUY, BUT BUSINESS IS BUSINESS AND A DEDUCTION IS A DEDUCTION.
