Special Post -- Isle of Wight National Poo Museum

You read that right.  There is now a National Poo Museum.  And it isn't in this nation.  This makes me terribly sad.  On the other hand, maybe I can line up a grant to go international with this gig.

Anyway, this museum sounds amazing.  They have spheres of excrement from lions, elk, and babies!  You read that right.  Babies.  Can you picture the illuminated resin spheres?  Can you see yourself walking amidst the toilet lids, leaning in for more information?  It's an A La Commode paradise.  And I bet there's no odor either.

From BBC News website
It's not all entertainment.  They also have displays about sanitation in developing nations.  A bit of sobering information amidst the fun of spheres and coprolites (fossil poo!).

The only thing I'm not sure of is what their restrooms look like.  Someone ought to go check it out.


(Thanks to Cara for alerting me to the existence of this amazing museum!)
