        That's funny! Reminds me of this radio program on Saturday mornings. The crew names they announce at the end are all parody phrases like these.

        Hmmmm, I think I may have seen that van before ;-)

          Nope. The van is used in NOMA's outreach programs. I think it's primarily about bringing some aspect of the museum to kids, but they probably take it to senior centers and community groups.
