April 10 - I AM Your Father

It was announced today that Larry Birkhead is the father of Anna Nicole Smith’s baby.

Hopefully this will bring some closure and the media can move on to move pressing things like Don Imus using the “H” word.

The Anna Nicole coverage was the subject of my February 12, 2007 PET PEEVE. I additionally update my spin on the spectacle on February 16 when two additional daddies were announced. At final count there were seven people claiming they had fathered this child.

I had laid odds on the parentage. Larry Birkhead was my odds on favorite. Why can't I pick race horse winnings with as much certanity?
