Night at the Museum

Just spent a night at the museum.  Not in the Ben Stiller/ Owen Wilson sense, more in the I work for a company that does advertising for the Museum of Science and Industry, and tonight was "family night", i.e. free night.  Although it was weird that at least 85% of the people attending I've never seen around the office.  Well, I hope they enjoyed it.

First Foster and I saw the coal mine, which somehow has been an exhibit since 1934 -- wouldn't quite a few of the visitors at that time been actual coal miners... they'd probably be calling bullshit, it'd be like an astronaut visiting Space Mountain, not the same.

Next we hit the Omnimax, saw a movie called Dinosaurs Alive.  Pretty good, narrated by Michael Douglas.  So, I guess Paleontology is "good" as well.

Caught the U-505 tour.  I love this thing.  Foster hates it.  For some reason a 65 year old Nazi sub freaks him out.  He believes the dramatic actors/tour guide way too much -- guess that whole we're not really under water speech flies over his head.

Saw the train, the baby chicks, the Toy Maker 3000 (which became un-automated and an Asian guy had to hop inside and shake the basket to get it working, ha).
