"Is Tutankhamun in this tomb?"
Aw, sweet Jesu on a bicycle. Son of a gun. How stupid is the American public? I've been working around the house and leave the teevee on so that there is an other human voice in my environment during the day, a habit formed after the kids left home. Well, it landed on the SyFy channel earlier in the day and stayed there.

Sat down for some lunch and a break and it seems that some program called Destination Truth is on today...all day. I have watched for half an hour now, across two separate episodes. We have a group of idiots running around in the dark with infared cameras and various asundry other electronic equipment. Thus far every little light or squeak is some paranormal event and they have spoken ENGLISH to some ghostly presence in a haunted Malaysian mosque and to King Tut now. Too funny, something in King Tut's tomb just told them "Out", or at least they are claiming some noise on their recording did. Who knew King Tut spoke modern English?

I'm changing channels to see if O'Donnell's head has started spinning yet.

1. Years ago someone here posted an item they saw on eBay:
"Nice photo of Jesus"

:rofl:

4. Sadly, I don't speak ancient Egyptian, but I'm willing to bet
that the spoken word "Out" means "Moron" or something similar.

5. lol I enjoy those shows. Most Haunted is the funniest.
Where the guy starts talking in a 'satanic' voice, and smashes a mirror over his own head. :rofl:

6. Maybe it was an American tourist ghost.
Either the tourist died there, or they died here and poofed over there looking for a place to live. The economy sucks so badly even ghosts are emigrating.

8. Yeah, but they all died somewhere else.
I guess maybe they went back to kick the ass of whoever put the curse on the place, though.
