Why Parents Go Gray (Joke)

Okay guys, I'm finally back at school and although classes start up again Monday and I'll still be slow, it 'is' about time I get some of this stuff that's cluttering up my firefox bookmarks and email accounts posted and out of my way for everyone else to enjoy. :D

A father passing by his son's bedroom was astonished to see that his

bed was nicely made and everything was picked up. Then he saw an

envelope, propped up prominently on the pillow that was addressed to

"Dad."

With the Worst premonition he opened the envelope with trembling hands

and read the letter.

Dear Dad:

It is with great regret and sorrow that I'm writing you. I had to

elope with my new girlfriend because I wanted to avoid a scene with Mom

and you. I have been finding real passion with Stacy and she is so nice.

But I knew you would not approve of her because of all her piercings,

tattoos, tight motorcycle clothes and the fact that she is much older

than I am. But it's not only the passion...Dad she's pregnant.

Stacy said that we will be very happy. She owns a trailer in the woods

and has a stack of firewood for the whole winter. We share a dream of

having many more children. Stacy has opened my eyes to the fact that

marijuana doesn't really hurt anyone. We'll be growing it for ourselves

and trading it with the other people that live nearby for cocaine and

ecstasy. In the meantime we will pray that science will find a cure for

AIDS so Stacy can get better. She deserves it.

Don't worry Dad. I'm 15 and I know how to take care of myself. Someday

I'm sure that we will be back to visit so that you can get to know your

grandchildren.

Love, Your Son, John

PS. Dad, none of the above is true. I'm over at Tommy's house. I just

wanted to remind you that there are worse things in life than a report

card, that's in my center desk drawer.

I love you.

Call me when it's safe to come home.
