Galileo

Indigo girls song Galileo comes on in the car...

M: what's this song called? (She asks this about almost every song that comes on)
Me: Galileo
M: what does Galileo do? 
Me: he was an astronomer. He studied the stars
M. He had a spaceship. 
Me. No. He just had a telescope. 
W: I bet he was alive when they invented cars. 
Me: no, this was way before cars
W: how did they get around
Me: I guess they used horses
M: was Galileo a boy or a girl?
Me: a boy
M. Did Galileo have a cat?
Me. I don't know
W. Do cats really have 9 lives?
Me. No
W. It would be cool if they did. 

(Yes. Cool. What would also be cool is if this conversation was over!)

Oh my goodness, this had me cracking up -- we've had very similar conversations at our house! Except I'm not generally nice enough to answer ;)
