For the uninitiated, the title of this post translates as "too long; don't read." Of course, I actually do want you to read this, but considering the massive info dump captured in this episode I thought the title was appropriate.
And this is still condensed from what Dad normally does, as well as being near the end of his rambling.
I love my Daddy. ^_^

Oh. My. Gosh! That's a funny one! I'm afraid I too am often guilty of giving too much information in response to a simple question. But the monologue you have here is hilarious - and I haven't come close to reading all of it!
BTW, I love the joke variation of Mary Poppins' magic word - I had never heard that and now I have tears from laughing!

I love you, too.

Wait! I didn't explain about the British Empire. It's been theorized that the reason that European groups set up colonies, while China didn't throughout its long history - I'll get back to that - is that China had a lot of relatively open land around it. Don't tell that to the people who lived in the open land: It's sort of like the Scots and English situation. Or Scots and the Irish and the English. My ancestors - way, way, back there - might have been landowners before the English overlords started throwing their weight and warm beer around. It could have been worse, though. They did quite well as well-to-do-peasants.
Now, where was I? Oh, yes. continental drift. One reason that life flourishes - - -
What's that huffing sound?
Oh.
It's #1 daughter.
"I'll be back."
@Tenacious-K: And that's just the punchline. ^_^
The wonders of free association.
@Dad: Like I said...
The joke in our family was "Never ask your father what time it is unless you want to know how the clock works."
@Baka_Bomb: Sounds like we had similar dads. Now that's a scary thought.
I've heard of kitten huffing, but daughter huffing? oO
@Robert: Kitten what?? Do I even want to know.
