Head Shoulders Knees and Toes

Had the opportunity to visit the Body Worlds exhibit today at the Leonardo with some fellow Struckers. The exhibit is wrapping up in the next couple days so the lines of people were pretty long, and the exhibit halls were packed with folks checking out crusty cadavers and all of the entrails that make up the human body. Whether the exhibit itself is awe inspiring for you or just putting yourself in the spot to truly consider how amazing the human body is, it is worth the ticket price. So much more detailed than, "the head bone's connected to the neck bone." In fact, that song is the Cliff's notes version of the Cliff's notes of the Cliff's notes of the extended description of the human body. The best part of the exhibit is when you catch yourself at any one time unconsciously flexing the muscles in any given part of your body in amazement that it works the way it does.
