That Valley of the Kings area reminds me of a cemetery within 10 blocks of me here in Queens, NY, where about two dozen infamous mobsters are buried. The cemetery is St John’s.

Among the buried there, are:

Salvatore Maranzano (1886 - 1931)
Salvatore “Lucky Luciano” (1897 - 1962)
Carlo Gambino (1902 - 1976)
Vito Genovese (1897 - 1969)
Carmine Galante (1910 - 1979)
John Gotti (1940 - 2002)
Neill “The Hat” Dellacroce (1914 - 1985)
Giuseppe Profaci (1897 - 1962)
Roy Albert DeMeo (1942 - 1983)
Joe Colombo (1923 - 1978)
Paul “Paulie” Vario (1914 - 1988)
Philip “Rusty” Rastelli (1918 - 1991)
Carmine Fatico (1910 - 1991)
Frank “Funzi” Tieri (1904 - 1981)
James “Jimmy Nap” Napoli (1911 - 1992)

As I understand it they were looking for Tuts tomb because he was missing. You can look at a map today but remember they were on foot and a lot of fallen rock has covered the valley. KV-5 was flooded almost to the top.

I was thinking Egypt should send all its historical treasures to another country where it would be safe from ISIS who would destroy it all.

Then I got to thinking where would such a country be!

I wonder if she was as hot as the chick who played her in the mummy movies?

I don't think they had Nair back then. :-)

Thanks SteveH. Of course, it won't be long before Steve Martin makes his appearance on the thread.
