OP-ED CONTRIBUTOR
By STEVE MARTIN
T is fitting that so many major news organizations have asked me to herald the coming to the United States of the artifacts from King Tut's tomb. After all, I'm the one who wrote the silly song about him. I stepped over the backs of many Egyptologists who wanted to write this article, but it's better that they learn their lesson now: silly song writers are powerful and vicious people who will stop at nothing to write an article about subjects they have treated in a silly way.
Uh, yeah, considering it was written by Steve Martin. I guess an op-ed from Dec 5 has priority over something posted Dec 3?
