Meet Galileo

We were having dinner on the deck the other night and Wrigley looks up and says:

W: Behind the blue, there's black. Yes or no?
Dad, utterly befuddled, munches happily away at his dinner.
M: That's right.
W: And that's space.
Dad is still utterly befuddled, but now it's because he didn't know that his daughter knew what "space" is. But he has no problem continuing to munch away at his dinner.
M: Yup.
W: And the earth is in space.
Dad gives up on the whole dinner thing and surrenders completely to befuddlement.
W: And the earth is spinning round and around and around ...
And Daddy's head is spinning around and around and around ...
