EuroTrip '08 - Belgrade, Museum of Natural History

Museum of Natural History in Belgrade is 113 years old. Tomorrow, I will go to the main building to talk to people and perhaps check the library and some specimens - there is no real exhibit there. But today I went to the ancient and tiny exhibit building, all the way out on Kalemegdan (the old fortress). Since the space is so small, they can only showcase a small portion of the collection at any given time. These few months, the exhibits is about Skeletons. Very nicely done. I particularly liked a whole series of skeletons of a fox and another series of a rat, both showing the various phases of the movement, i.e., a single big jump. Several of the pieces showed the disarticulated bones, the internal structure of the bones and joints, etc. Extra points for figuring out the identity of a series of small bones attached to a board...

I'm probably the only one of your regular readers who has a penis bone.

I have no fear of traveling to the Congo and having my penis stolen by sorcerers. I have the confidence that comes of knowing I have a spare penis safely stored at home.
