A recurring memory weird?
For a long time, I had this memory. It is a scene painted on a museum wall (would be in MN, since it is the only state in which I have seen their museums). This is obviously a Victorian-type room. The worst thing is that the scene is being terrorized by monkeys. Books are being destroyed hanging from the chandelier and breaking things. Remember this is painted on the wall. On display are old shotguns and customs of the hundreds 1800-1900. As stereotypical Victorian hunter hunting in Africa. Any idea what the scene? As in, is there a particular story about it?
No I know .. .. sounds interesting, but why not go in the museum call and ask what the significance of the painting is .. Or what would you ask about the artist. Maybe if you know who painted it .. that would give its formation .. and give some tips .. or maybe it explains the meaning.

28 Days [VHS] $4.19 To appreciate 28 Days, it’s best to be thankful that director Betty Thomas hasn’t forced Sandra Bullock into a remake of Clean and Sober. Instead Thomas has balanced her comedic sensibility (evident in Dr. Dolittle and Private Parts) with the seriousness of alcoholism and substance abuse, and she succeeds without compromising the gravity of the subject matter. Some critics have scoffed at the mov… |
