but his body remains in the nearby Step Pyramid....


The story directly contradicts that opening statement : “There is a burial chamber in the tomb but it is seen as too small to have been anything more than symbolic.” Charlotte Edwards evidently didn’t actually proof read her own story. No actual bodies have been found in any Pyramid ; that’s a 19th century conceit, now become consensus thinking and no longer science.

So, when does the terrible curse upon those, who opened it kick in?

And those lights have been burning for thousands of years. Just think of all that energy!

Think back on all the mystical crap during the late 60s, early 70s....

"Pyramid power refers to the belief that the ancient Egyptian pyramids and objects of similar shape can confer a variety of benefits. Among these assumed properties are the ability to preserve foods, sharpen or maintain the sharpness of razor blades, improve health, function "as a thought-form incubator", trigger sexual urges, and cause other effects."

Why I can remember seeing a flasher on a NYC subway. Dude opened his trench coat with a pyramid made of pick up sticks taped to his groin....must say the ladies weren't impressed by the magic.

Djoser Biden.

No wonder he’s senile, being a 4500 year old mummy.

“Iā€™m puzzled, wondering just who changed the light bulbs.”

Joe Biden. At least that’s what he told the Egyptian President.

He said, “Honestly, you’re not going to believe this,but....
my First Job, was changing the light bulbs in the “South Tomb”

You know, if you look at the authors’ names with your eyes crossed just a little bit, it all starts to look like: “By Bull Schitt”. :P

And he scores!

Seriously, thought the mummy had this contract
signed, sealed and delivered.

Picture this: SloJo climbing on a ladder. Are you laughing
yet? Now this, attempting to turn the bulb to replace it.

He just stole it; plan is to carry the object around in order to see the light when he actually as a coherent thought.

Thanks blueplum.
And no, Imhotep was not Joseph, nor did they live in the same period.
Joseph and Potiphar, Immanuel Velikovsky
The story of Joseph is one of the best known in the Bible... in order to find out whether the personality of Joseph or the patron of the early stage of his career, Potiphar, is referred to in the historical documents, we have to look into those of the Middle Kingdom. The task appears simple. According to the Book of Genesis Potiphar was "an officer of Pharaoh, captain of the guard." In the register of the private names to the Ancient Records of Egypt by James Breasted, we find the name Ptahwer... at the service of the Pharaoh Amenemhet III of the Twelfth Dynasty of the Middle Kingdom. According to an inscription of Ptahwer at Sarbut el-Khadem in Sinai dated in the forty-fifth year of Amenemhet III, his office was that of "master of the double cabinet, chief of the treasury." ...The inscription records the successful accomplishment of some peaceful expedition.

Since there is only one Ptahwer in the historical documents, and since he lived in the time when we expect to find him, we are probably not wrong in identifying the biblical Potiphar with the historical Ptahwer. This being the conclusion concerning Potiphar, we are curious to find whether any mention of Joseph is found in historical documents, too... Since a great famine took place in the days of Joseph, it is, of course, important to trace such a famine in the age of which we speak. In the days of Amenemhet III there occurred in Egypt a famine enduring nine long years... Thus it seems that the Pharaoh in whose days was the seven years' famine was the successor of the Pharaoh in whose days began the rise of Joseph's career (if Yatu is Joseph).

Potiphar, who lived under Amenemhet III, probably lived also under his successor. The inscription which deals with Ptahwer mentions a man whose name is transliterated by Breasted as Y-t-w. Among the monuments of Amenemhet III's reign is one of the Storekeeper... The inscription that mentions Ptahwer refers to his activity in the mines of the Sinai peninsula. In this respect it is of interest to find that the Jewish traditions connect Joseph with the area of the Sinai Peninsula saying that he kept a large quantity of treasuries near Baal Zaphon, the scene of the Passage of the Sea.
