Good for Mr. Estrada. He did the right thing.

It is said that every man has his price. I suspect that most men have considered or fantasized just what their price might be.

I too may have a price, but I truly don’t know what it would be.

I do know that my integrity is worth far more than $140K, and I also know that once you have sold or given away your integrity, no amount of money can ever buy it back. It’s just gone, that part of what makes a man know in his heart that he is a good man.... is forever gone.

When I was a kid I used to wonder...... “If there are no witnesses, am I truly alone?” I didn’t think so then and I don’t think so now. (heck, if nothing else, there are those Ten Suggestions). ;>)

If my life leads me to living with just myself, I would like to respect and trust that guy.

Besides, if honesty and integrity wasn’t important to me, I might have become a politician.

Again, Mr. Estrada did the right thing.

BTW.... None of what I say pertains to those stupid sport fishing rules. ;>)

Character is based on what you do when no one is looking.
