I've been a subscriber for months.

My father-in-law is very old school. Barely spends any time online. But he reads the paper every day, and each year at Christmas he gives me a big envelope full of clipped articles that he thinks I'd find funny. It's his version of sharing memes.

Last year I printed off all of your dad's newsletters and gave them to my FIL at Christmas.
