Museums

I leave Ryan and Nick Walsh at a London tube station with man-hugs and hearty high fives. The town is red, as the coat we’ve painted it, focused in pubs and museums. We’ve seen the Rosetta Stone, Raphael’s School of Athens, and some of the best-preserved Victorian bathrooms at John Wesley’s Chapel, complete with Crapper’s waste disposal systems.

We may sound like nerds, sure, but I recall Rachel Weiss’ character in The Mummy Returns, criticized for her Egyptological interests while doing research at The British Museum—where we saw the Rosetta Stone—and she, with Brendan Fraser and a bunch of bearded guys saved the earth from certain annihilation at the hands of a 4,000 year-old, risen mummy. So please, don’t judge until you see Ryan, Nick, and me give the undead a what-for.
