My dad is cooler than your dad

An email conversation with my father:

Me: Found this pic of Kirk and thought of you. Miss you terribly.

Dad: Bokonon contemplates...are you makin fun of Captain Kirk?

Me: Absolutely not. It's just a truth that needed to be spoken. It is, as it is and nothing more.

Dad: Bokonon reflects....yer justified in your actions. Carry on, but tread lightly where the great one is concerned.
