DEAD STUFF

I'm currently on vacation in Perth, just relaxing and visiting friends who live here. After being in Sydney for so long, it really makes me appreciate this big ol' country town. It's so far from the east coast of Australia and, in comparison, so baron and empty.

Yesterday i went to the Western Australian Museum with a friend to look at dead animals and insects. The insects are the most intriguing, the fact that they are so small and still in such perfect condition (without being squashed i mean). My friend said that they suffocate them, so as to not tamper with their natural state, an awful thought.... what if they were claustrophobic? Murder.

My favourite was probably the mice pinned to the diagram on the wall... straight from the lab. Oh, and the last picture (which i think is a baby north-west blower fish) looks like a shriveled old penis with eyes and a mouth.

Oh, and we also found this lovely lady, i guess she was never dead nor alive, but she had total babe alert style.
