In which you should always observe the signs





To wit: these two signs that I noticed when I was last in DC at the National Museum of Natural History. (I am devoted to the natural history museums in DC and in New York. I don't know why, precisely. I am not particularly scientific of mind. But they are enchanting and appeal strongly to my inner child who thinks everyone should own a vivarium.)

I think it's kind of funny that they have to tell you not to stare into the laser beam.

Deanna, have you seen the new Ocean Hall at the Natural History museum here in DC? It's fantastic.

Ha! The first one, I find to be rather funny!

I have, Emily--I stood there just staring for ages! The sign with the quote was from the back of that hall. I could spend ages there.

me too! I'm lucky enough to live nearby so we often swing by just to hang out there. When I was in my early 20's I worked a catering job there afterhours and it was so magical to be there at night!
