Not a dad, but this happens daily in my physics class.

Me: Hey, what are the units for power?

Friend: Watt.

Me: I said, what are the units for power?

Friend: Watt.

Me: No, I said what are the units for power?

Friend: JOULES PER SECOND

My students are catching on...

Today I took a class out onto the oval to investigate the strength of radio signals in different situations. For one, we wrapped a radio in foil and as I was unwrapping it a student commented that they hoped there was food inside.

I finished opening it and said 'oh man, it's a radio - mum must really hate me' to which another student replied 'I know, it's not even a ham radio...'

Was so proud!
