Very Postmortem, Very Post-Boredom

I want mummy cookies

So let's see, just because you had to get up too early and there was no soymilk for your coffee, you think it's ok to diss the work of a museum, stanford medical school and an egyptologist? Maybe you should just stay home next time instead of inflicting your stupidity on the rest of us.

The museum put a mummy on display in a manner that will interest some people, which is their job. Stanford Med's radiology department put the mummy through a series of scans, which is their job and it was nice of them to donate their time. Fovia, the HD Volume Rendering company, used raw data from the scans to create the 3D model - which happens to be their particular area of expertise. Dr. Elias (the egyptologist) provided context, which is great because he has a wealth of information about Egypt.

I could have written a much shorter article about people doing jobs, but instead I wrote a lengthy one about my experience at a museum. Is that stupid? I don't think so. Maybe a little irreverent, but this wasn't really about the mummies, was it?
