Recently I went to Worcester to attend a Dementia and Tech talk at the university. As the talk wasn’t until 4 I decided to catch a morning train and make a day out of sight-seeing. As soon as I got off the train, I decided I would let the ‘tourist signs’ choose my fate.

I started to take pictures and asked the attendants for the twitter id. They were more than pleased to have me tweet and share.
I headed to the other room which had fantastic museum mannequins. I immediately knew I wanted to try to take a few selfies for MuseumSelfie day and also to share them on #MuseumMannequin tumblr. However, the attendant in that room told me I had to fill out a form. Ok, not a big deal. A tad old fashion but I’m not going to judge. When I started to read the form (which I will admit I normally never do) there were two particular words that jumped out at me: morality obligated. To my photos. Read the rest of this entry »
