#6 When the traveling exhibition, "Splendors of Ancient Egypt" came to Phoenix, one of their exhibits about made me split a gut.

It was a wooden coffin from the Greek period, around the year 0, and its outside was painted with thick, horizontal red and white stripes. The lid, over the face of the mummy, was painted with a dark blue field, with white dots that looked light the stars in the sky.

When you opened the lid, suddenly it clicked: the coffin looked like the American flag!

As I remarked to my friend at the time, "I guess the time machine worked halfway, at least."

#8 I saw this show in Philly, and I liked it, but it was Wa-a-a-y crowded. Also all the gift shop stuff came from China. :/

#9 The way to go, in Philly, at least, was with a group like school or scouts, that got early admission (8:30) to the museum and exhibit before they opened for general admission (10:00). After GA it was a mob scene.

#12 Seafarious, I recommend the Hopper show at the National Gallery, and the David Macaulay show at the National Building Museum.
