A Very Strange Museum

We've been watching this odd show, "World's Creepiest Places." Today, it once again brought up a place I have always wanted to visit: the Mutter Museum in Philadelphia.

It started as a medical resource, but now holds some of the strangest medical specimens anywhere, including tumors, strange bodies, oddly-shaped organs...even the body of a woman that's turned to soap! 

For photos of some of the stranger exhibits, including a monster colon and Grover Cleveland's jaw tumor, go here, for a visitor's take on the subject. Or take a virtual tour.
