You know, if I were a single man, I might ask
that mummy out. That's a good- looking mummy.

Please don't publicize this. It's just another place for the Demofrauds to find ballots in close elections. Franken's people are advising Murray, Boxer, Coons, Gianoulis and others on where to `find` votes... And of COURSE, Harry from Blacklight is on the list too...

I saw an article on Drudge today about the woman who drove around in her car for 10 months with a dead body. The forensic experts re-hydrated one of her fingers to get prints to identify the dead woman. I wonder if they could do the same thing here.

But, what would you do with them?
Now, DNA will be useful...they'll get that too.

Didn’t the body decay and get eaten by worms and maggots?

No. I am not an expert but I think that is the definition of a mummy ... they have been preserved, or keep in an environment where their bodies have not broken down.

"Nothing useful, but it was just a thought." LOL. I had a Twilight Zone moment.
What if they ran the fingerprints through the FBI fingerprint matching system and discovered that they match the prints from a number of recent unsolved murders.
