The man who calls himself JFK's love child goes by the name of Jack Worthington.
"Sometimes there are stories that everyone relates to, no matter when the tale originated.
It transcends class, country, culture, and age to find the audience in a place where they can say, “Why do women do that?”
.....
The story is Oscar Wilde’s “The Importance of Being Earnest,” which is guaranteed to always strike a nerve one way or the other with any audience.
The late 19th century English farce of mistaken identity and bewildered love is captured in this cozy setting, condensing all this social satire of a changing yet still conventional society in the American town of Marietta.
The story, for those who don’t know, is that of Jack Worthington, a young Englishman living both in London and in the country under two different identities.
In the country he is Jack, responsible and even slightly boring to his ward, a young girl – Cecily – left by her grandfather, Jack’s guardian.
In London he assumes the identity of Earnest, the young scoundrel of a brother that he creates in order to have an excuse when Cecily and her tutor, Miss Prism , question where Jack has been.
goes by the name of Jack Worthington.

FWIW
The Province is the tabloid-y provincial (in both meanings) newspaper; big on gangland murders, malformed infants, hockey and curling satistics.

Is that photo contrived enough for you?
The upshot, the window framing White House like, the half lighting across the face...

Santa smiled and said, "Well, you know, we Irish men do all look alike."
