Of Parenting

Seriously, add a van Dyke for facial hair and that guy looks exactly like me. Sad, really.

Questions I Legitimately Asked My Parents Before Age Five:

• "Where do babies come from?"
  
• "What is God?"
  
• "Is Santa Claus real?"
• "Can you measure how fast the [toy] boat floats over the [bath] water?"
• "If a big black hole ate a little black hole, would the mass of the smaller black hole be added to the mass of the bigger black hole, or would it cancel out part of the mass of the bigger black hole?"
• "Can you tell me the story of the entire Star Wars trilogy again? With all the lines?"

I think what I'm trying to say is, thank you, Mom and Dad for not throwing my off a cliff like any other civilized society would have done.
