Why Parents Have Gray Hair
A father passing by his son's bedroom was astonished
to see the bed nicely
made up and everything neat and tidy.
Then he saw an envelope propped up prominently on
the pillow. It was
addressed, "Dad". With the worst premonition, he
opened the envelope and
read the letter with trembling hands:
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 you and Mom.
I've been finding real passion with Joan and she is
so nice. I knew you
would not approve of her because of all her
piercings, tattoos, her tight
motorcycle clothes and because she is so much older
than I am but it's not
only the passion, Dad, she's pregnant.
Joan says that we are going to be very happy. She
owns a trailer in the
woods and has a stack of firewood, enough for the
whole winter. We share a
dream of having many more children.
Joan has opened my eyes to the fact that marijuana
doesn't really hurt
anyone. We'll be growing it and trading it with the
other people in the
commune for all the cocaine and ecstasy we want.
In the meantime, we'll pray that science will find a
cure for AIDS so Joan
can get better; she sure deserves it!
Don't worry Dad, I'm 15 years old now and I know how
to take care of myself.
Someday, I'm sure we'll be back to visit so you can
get to know your
grandchildren.
Your son, Chad
P.S. 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 the report
card that's in my desk drawer.
I love you! Call when it is safe for me to come
home!
