The One Where I'm Compared To A Graham ...


The Cubs have been talking about large numbers and large things with Mr Dad. This leads to all manner of interesting conversation ...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

RoRo: "Dada...do you know something?"

Mr Dad: "Yes RoRo. I know quite a lot actually."

RoRo: "Ohh ... but this is something else. Do you know the sea? It's very hard to get frozen, because it keeps moving. And it's very big!

Mr Dad: "Wow RoRo that’s very true."

RoRo: "Dada...do you know something...?"

Dad: "Clearly not as much as you RoRo." 

RoRo: "Do you know that a 'gurgle' has a hundreds zeros."

Mr Dad: "That’s right. A Googol does have a 100 zeros."

RoRo: "And a 'Gurleplux'has a hundred hundred zeros!"

Mr Dad: "Actually a Googolplex has a googol of zeros, but you’re right that it's much much bigger."

RoRo: "But a 'Graham' is the biggest number! And I know how to spell it...  G - R - A - Y - M"

Mr Dad: "That's good enough for me."

RoRo: "Why can't people count the number of zeros in a Graham?"

Mr Dad: "That’s a really good question.Why do you think it’s so hard to do?"
RoRo: "Because a Graham is sooo big! Did you know itis the biggest number!?!"

Mr Dad: "That’s right RoRo. But do you know what an 'Anthea' is?"

RoRo: "Yes! An 'Anthea' has orangy-browny hair. She's a bit bossy.  And has big boobies. Do you know the one I'm talking about? Well, hmm? ... Mummy!Yes... and she's no ordinary 'Anthea'. She's our Mummy!"

Mr Dad: "She is indeed."

RoRo: "Dada...do you know something?

Mr Dad: "RoRo... are there a lot of things in your head that you need to get out again today?"

RoRo: Yes! Yes!! How did you know that Daddy?"
