geeky family bonding

Had this conversation a few nights ago...

Mom: What is that strange thing in our neighbor's driveway *peering out window*
Dad: *looks* Hmm...definitely a Dalek.
Me: *looks* Nah, Dalek's don't have arms. See, there's something extending out from either side.
Dad: Maybe Robbie the Robot then.
Me: Yeah. Though man, a Dalek would make a pretty awesome lawn piece. Especially for Halloween.
Dad: Yeah, but we should have thought of it earlier. We would have had to start working on it in the summer. Don't have enough time now...
Me: Yeah...
Dad: Is there any place you can rent a Dalek from? Now that's an idea! We should start a business.
Me: Rent-A-Dalek! Brilliant! We'll make millions. Let's get on it.
Mom: ...

XD I love my Dad.

My love for sci-fi is all his fault, after all. XD I never have to buy any sci-fi/fantasy books because he already owns them and I can just borrow them. XD Its crazy, there hasn't been a title yet that I was interested in that he didn't already have a copy of.

I come from a sci-fi dad as well, he raised me right on X-files, Star Trek and hilarious sci-fi B movies!

^.^ My parents and I all got together to watch X-Files together back in the day. And then I got them into Buffy. XD
