Dead bodies on display in the name of Science

So today, I went to the California Science Center and saw Plasticized (sp?) bodies. These are real life bodies that have been preserved and are on display for you to learn about. Our vocal approaches class went as a field trip, which is much better than actually doing voice class because it sucks!

For the most part it was cool, but then you had to walk through this area with preserved fetuses and a woman who died in the 8th month of pregnancy, and it was a little harsh... but I managed. I guess the hardest part was images of my nephew kept flashing in my head because I witnessed his birth.

The I spent the afternoon back on campus and helped wire up the hanging practicals for the black box show.

After that I stopped by the polling place and voted for Kerry. At which point I ran into my dad and told him my daily events over dinner.

I posted that info on my livejournal as follows:

"So earlier today, Sally tells me she is still voting for Bush. I beg her not to, just this once, deny her republican heritage and vote for Kerry, no matter how big a douche he is. And she says to me "you don't change the linebacker in the middle of the game." I said, ok, I agree with that, but I still can't respect Bush because he's a liar and a war profiteer (sp?)

Anyways, I go to dinner with my dad tonight and tell him about Sally's little analogy. His reply:

"Yeah but if the opposing team sacks our quarterback, we should go for theirs, not their cheerleaders."

In other words, after the WTC, Bush should have gone for Osama not Saddam.

My dad, ex-football player making more sense.... Sorry Sally."

What a fun filled day... so I'll stay up, find out Bush is gonna stick around for 4 more years probably and go to bed awaiting the coming apocolypse (sp?).
