Default Re: Examples of why your dad is/was awesome

My wife and I laughed at our Dad's respective reactions when we were kids and first noticed the effect that makes it look like the moon is "following" you when you are in a car.

Her dad floored it and said "I bet I can beat it home!"

My dad, once we got home, took out a flashlight, a basketball, and a tennis ball and explained not only parallax, but also the phases of the moon.

My dad is awesome.
