Being a visual and verbal chronologue of my peculiar life, foremost my research interests—death and the anatomical body—and travels and people I've met in pursuit of same; my collecting interests—fossils, postmortem photographs, weird news, and new acquisitions to my “museum”; and (reluctantly) my health, having been diagnosed with MS in 1990.

Happy Mother's Day!
A strange story played out in Milwaukee last month. Ben Sherwood's wife was going into labor, so he was driving her to the hospital. Kimberly new she wasn't going to make it in time, so she asked him to pull over. Ben chose the Milwaukee Art Museum (pictured) because he spotted a police cruiser. He summoned the officer, who looked rather frightened, so Ben asked for a doctor among a nearby group of people. Annette Soborowicz quickly came forward, explaining that she was an emergency room nurse. Within minutes, she was holding Ben and Kimberly's newborn son in her hands, a healthy baby they named "Lincoln James Calavatra Sherwood." Annette was not in her scrubs at the time - she was in a peach mother-of-the-bride dress and matching high heels. The group she was with was a wedding party at the reception for the marriage of her daughter and son-in-law.
