I've found it difficult at times to watch Jerry Springer. The show is like a mixture of the arena in "Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome" and random parts of the "Planet of the Apes" series. In fact, I've sometimes thought that Springer should put a psychologist in a "Planet of the Apes" costume and have "a monkey" give advice to humans who act like they have missed a few rungs in the ladder of evolution.
However, I found an interesting ad on Craigslist <http://seattle.craigslist.org/see/tfr/272479894.html> that I decided to share with some people. In fact, I know a few people that have some stories that the general public may find interesting. Don't you?

My biological father forwarded his response to this ad, and after removing his e-mail address from the text, I will now post it below:

Dear Mr. Springer's reader,
l spent 3l years looking for my son and was reunited last year, give or
take.
After 25 years l was just hoping to be able to get him his medical
records and being his mother is/was a nurse and his stepfather a
doctor/retired, l assumed they'd want what was best for their children.
Found out mother has ungoing affair with a Judge and l believe he is the
one who has stopped me from trying to contact my son during various
times.
l tried newspaper ads but after ONCE, was told they could not do again.
A Private Investagator returned a check for $650 as he could do nothing.
Flyers were handed out.
l contacted police and someone returned call from the police saying my
son was alright but don't contact.
l contacted a doctor whose wife was/is the same as my son's mother and a
attorney called and threatened me with "stalking" yet l believe the cop,
the PI, the doctor's attorney were all the Judge's and he did so
protecting my son's mother but not caring about my son.
Since my son knew nothing of me until after DNA from Genex Corp. proved
l was his biological father, much more of his world crashed around him
and l'm sure some answers came to him but yet, after 38 years of his
life, l want to contact Judge and his mother but he wishes l do not
because of the lies he was told but also answers questions on WHAT took
me so long to find him?
Any thoughts appreciated.
James C. Johnston
Many frustrations l'm trying to deal with, mostly my word to my son l
won't pursue a Judge, believing in my heart he kept us apart to please
his mother.
