I Am A Proud Father Tonight
 
The reason that I am a proud Father is not because the wife had a baby...not by the hair of your chinny-chin-chin.

Tonight I just learned that my son David N. Strange has just been elevated to the position of equal and full partner to one of the most prestiegous law firms in the state of Texas with offices thoughout the state, with main office in Amarillo.

Recently, he was appointed as a Law Professor at Texas Tech university. Now he has been given full partnership in the law firm of Whittenberg, Whittenberg, Stein and Strange. There will be a special celebration dinner with the partners together with the Texas Supreme Court Chief Justice in his honor.

He did quite well in law school, graduating Cum Laude from the University of Houston Law School. The law firm that he now enjoys his relationship with watched him throughout his school career and offered him a position with the firm a full year before he graduated.

But, even though I am proud of my dear boy, I can't take credit. He got both looks and brains from his mother. I just paid the bills while he was in school.

Thanks LS...

My buttons on this shirt are kind of tight right now. I need to exhale. :D

I'm sure there's a joke in here somewhere, we'll just have to dig to find it. :diggin

Three Jews and a Pentecostal walk into a bar . . . . . . exam.


I'm close, but it needs work. :)

Congratulations to your son. You're justified in your pride.

Bro. Strange,

You have every right to be proud of your son. I am sure that he gets his brains and beauty from you, and Sis. Marie. You are both very intelligent, and handsome people and your children are living proof.
:congrats

Blessings, Sis. Sharonda

Congratulations, Bro. Strange, Sis. Strange and son, David N. Strange!

Bro. Strange, you must accept some of the credit for without the bills being

paid, it could not have happened. Takes teamwork to make the dream work!

Blessings,

Yeah, I thought of that too. It is kind of funny. I doubt that one of the partners (namely Strange) would walk into a bar. David is a strong Apostolic attending a Spanish Apostolic Church in Amarillo. He speaks as fluent Spanish as he does English. He is also fluent in French and Russian too.

Brother,

I know that you're son had a great example to follow with a father like you. I pray blessings on you and your entire family.

Congratulations to you and your son for this fine accomplishment.
