In case you didn’t figure that out from my previous post about my family…
Dad: [On Facebook, about Pastafarian Preaching photos] Some great looking pirates. I had do some research (you’re keeping my mine active) figure out what Pastafarian meant. It makes good sense to me.
Me: [Through email, to mom and dad] You’d both probably like to know that your daughter was interviewed by the local tv station for the 5 o clock news…dressed as a pirate. Thankfully the piece was very positive. Love, J
Dad: Got a kick out of you facebook pictures – you make a great pirate. You represented yourself well on the news interview — but tell them to get your name right next time. Love, Dad
Me: They even had me pronounce it on camera, and they still got it wrong! And spelled it wrong, did you catch that? Not to mention the club name…”Non-thesis” ha!
Dad: The reporter is probably in training for Fox News.

Haha, that's an awesome dad, all right.
My father actually watches Glenn Beck sometimes. Ironically, I hope, but I couldn't ask. He seems to see it as a comedy show, but I don't want to know.

I'm jealous. My parents are accommodationists.

Like I explained on Twitter, when I informed my dad about FSM, he said that, "If I'm going to worship a god that I can eat, it better involve bacon."

That's funny, it reminds me of a restaurant I went to one time. In the "Sides" section they had listed:
Bacon – Free, because we respect the awesomeness of your choice.
I was going to get it, but I was having the roasted rabbit and I really wanted to appreciate the unique rabbity flavour.
Pete…
