Animals and people were painted on various surfaces in amazing detail, but seemingly from the inside out. We started by looking at all the photographs of fossilized fishes at Photo. It was a mini-science lesson as the children looked at the impressions these ancient fishes made on the rock. We then looked at this piece of art. The Metropolitan Museum of Art. And Aboriginal Art Online. What ...

Thursday, September 27, 2007. Winston Churchill is said to have described the tradition of the Royal British Navy as nothing but "rum, buggery and the lash."
