Bob was a big goofball. My Dad used to take me to see his antics at the Woodland Park Zoo. Bill Cosby did a bit about Bobo's asexuality. Seattle loves Bobo.

Bobo fits very well in a museum that also features the Iron Chink. It's easier to be better when it's simply easier to be. It's important not to bear any ill will towards those who's lives were much harder than ours, just as it's important to make sure that their values die with them.

Strangely, I find taxidermy far less depressing than zoos.

Bad taxidermy, on the other hand...

I want to thank you, Jen, for your intrepid reporting on MOHAI, for apparently taking my comment seriously, and for updating Slog on Bobo's status.
Your description of the Innovation and Digital towers at the new MOHAI made me worry they were losing sight of what makes Seattle special*. Nearly every airport in the world has a display about the local tech prowess; devoting an entire museum to it just looks desperate.

@4: I also love the mildew.
