Natural History Museum




While tempted to see Avatar in IMAX 3D, I'm not sure if I can take it. Oceans 3D was only 40 minutes and it gave me the crazy eyes and a headache. Maybe it was due to my attention constantly being drawn to the snacks I was eating. Few things are better than grazing and watching a screen. I almost have no appetite unless I'm watching something on tv.



Upon entering the Museum of Natural History, I was engulfed in a sea of children, all running around unsupervised and having the time of their young lives. There's a some things about so many little filthy hands flailing about that scares me. Perhaps one of these "kids" is a dwarf international spy trained to steal wallets from unsuspecting tourists. Or maybe, one of these kids found a rare rodent in their home state and without looking, mistakes me for their parent, and grabs the cuff of my shorts, spreading the next outbreak.







Bugs and insects are cool to look at, but I don't wanna hold your hissing roach ma'am. Maybe if I knew what hole you pulled it out of.

Special Korean exhibit displayed the thousands of years of illustrious cultural identity








It's all about the Benjamins. Actually, the National Portrait Gallery is all about a bunch of portraits of significant Americans. I never knew Edgar Allan Poe was such a baby face.
