A father passing by his son&#39;s bedroom was astonished to see that his &gt;&gt; bed was nicely made and everything was picked up. Then he saw an envelope, propped up prominently on the pillow that was addressed to &#39;Dad.&#39; With the worst premonition he opened the envelope with trembling hands and read the letter. <br /><br />Dear Dad: It is with great regret and sorrow that I&#39;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&#39;s not only the passion...<br /><br />Dad she&#39;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&#39;t really hurt anyone. We&#39;ll be growing it for ourselves and trading it with the other people that live nearby. In the meantime we will pray that science will find a cure for AIDS so Stacy can get better. <br /><br />She deserves it. Don&#39;t worry Dad. I&#39;m 15 and I know how to take care of myself. Someday I&#39;m sure that we will be back to visit so that you can get to know your grandchildren. Love, Your Son John.<br /><br /><br />P.S. Dad, none of the above is true. I&#39;m over at Tommy&#39;s house. I just wanted to remind you that there are worse things in life than <br />the report card that&#39;s in my center desk drawer. <br /><br />I love you. Call me when it&#39;s safe to come home
