Dear Dad: Thank you.

Amen, jalop-bro. This is a thread where I can read every post and get something positive out of it, without any of the nonsense found in the usual internet opinion-level posting. I say the usual because I have found, since I've been here, that most people who read/post on Jalopnik are a coherent group with more…
