Mark: Dad, how come you couldn't break your swell news to me over the phone? Slackmeyer: Well, kid, I'll tell you. For years, you've felt free to ridicule everything I've ever believed in...

Anyway, last week it suddenly dawned on me that I really hadn't taken the opportunity to sit down with you and rub your nose in it. Mark: Great of you to make the time, Dad. Slackmeyer: Not at all. Hell, I'm your father.
