The Mummy...

An archaeologist was digging in the Negev Desert in Israel and came upon a casket containing a mummy, a rather rare occurrence in Israel, to say the least. After examining it, he called Abe, the curator of the Israel museum in Jerusalem.

"I've just discovered a 3,000 year old mummy of a man who died of heart failure!" the excited scientist exclaimed.

Abe replied, "Bring him in. We'll check it out."

A week later, the amazed Abe called the archaeologist. "You were right about both the mummy's age and cause of death. How in the world did you know?"

"Easy. There was a piece of paper in his hand that said, '10,000 Shekels on Goliath'."

I'm afriad Pippin that Only Ozzy is really allowed to issue PITAs. I awarded Ozzy his cause no one else is nearly qualified. And anyway, that joke was good. ;D

Please note that I have only nominated Pippin.  I am fully aware that I cannot give the award myself ;).  I will discuss the matter with Mark today and see what can be arranged.

I have spoken to Mark and told him of the nomination.  Unfortunately I was forced to tell the joke as well.  He laughed so no PITA this time.  Try harder Pippin, we know that you can do it.
