Jason and I went today to go see the Titanic Exhibit showing at the Science Centre. It was just a random thing for the two of us to do since we haven't really done anything out of the ordinary for awhile. It was pretty good. We started out by watching an IMAX film about the Titanic projected on their IMAX dome which was pretty f'ing amazing. I

I want to see that exhibit. I saw a Titanic exhibit many years ago at the ROM; I also am quite the Titanic buff

I've always found the story of the Titanic fascinating. I remember being quite frightened as a child of the horrific images of it sinking in the night. I cannot think of how anyone would recover from seeing such a sight. It was kind of funny how they had kids books about the Titanic available in the gift shop with images of the sinking ship drawing in bright crayons. How do you put a rosy picture on that? Just a couple of days ago I caught the end half of "A night to remember" and there was a drunken character featured who survived against all odds. I thought that was just put in for unnecessary comic relief...well maybe it was. Let me know what you think of the exhibit if you end up going. I would definitely like to go again if possible.

From an old song on the sinking of the Titanic, slightly modified:

"Oh it was sad (so sad)
Oh it was sad (so sad)
It was sad when the great ship went down to the bottom of the -
Uncles and aunts, little children lost their pants
It was sad when the great ship went down!"

Yep, kids can be cruel.
