Sorry - I got busy there for a minute.
yes - I do know. I wish I had the funds to do that, but I'll have to settle for nursing my old VCR along for awhile. Maybe one day I'll have my own DVD burner.....
On a COMPLETELY different topic.....
I went to see the "Bodies" exhibit today. I never thought I would do that - but I had a couple of appointments this morning that happened to be right next to the exhibit. I decided that with everything breaking down in my own body, I'd see if I could stand to take a look at what was going on in there... you know?
ANYWAY - I immediately was aware of the fact that these were not human beings. Once upon a time they were, but no more. That immediately took the 'ick' factor out of it. The technology used to create those exhibits - particularly the circulatory system - was absolutely incredible. All of it left you feeling in awe and respectful of your own and others bodies.
When I first entered I was surprised at the number of young children there were in there. I thought that perhaps the exhibit was too much for a child to handle. By the time I left I realized that it was PERFECT for children. They will also walk away with a new understanding and respect for themselves and others. I guarantee they'll treat their own bodies better than I treated mine!
