And I should be surprised that a son of yours went for the gold the first try?

Congradulations (to your son)! Dad's don't need strokes; they are already too proud.

Re: YES! MY SON PASSED THE NY STATE BAR EXAM

Good deal! Must be a big relief. Our two new associates got word they passed are were just sworn in. The looks of relief are distantly familiar. I had no doubt that they would pass.

So what kind of work is your son interested in?

When I passed our local bar exam it meant they believed my fake ID.
