Oh snap! Dill's getting a little bit fresh with Grandfather, there!
But I'm also thinking the mummy is looking like a 4000-year-old red herring, though hopefully it won't smell as bad.
Serinn = A lovely lady I spent the day with in Saint-Tropez. When we tearfully parted, I found she had appropriated my watch and wallet. Oh, how we laughed.
I would think it a red herring, too, except that Darren did say (a long time ago) that he was going to have a mummy.
In regards to the chariot, I think that they were saying that the bands of leather were meant to support the floor, and that you could only see the part where the floor broke. Also, chariots could go 40MPH? No wonder they were so scary at the time (for the footsoldiers, I mean).
VW: squitist: one who plays a squid, which of course, is a musical instrument resembling the bagpipes. The instrument caused many to believe in Banshees.
But Dill doesn't know if they come back to life, just seen movies about it. And Grandpa doesn't watch those movies, he has lived to much of it to find it interesting.
PETER AND THE VAMPIRES is a horror/comedy web novel (and a free podcast!)about a normal, 10-year-old kid who moves into a sinister town filled with supernatural horribleness. The series is composed of different "monster of the week" stories - kind of like THE X-FILES crossed with THE SIMPSONS (if Mr. Burns were a ghoul and something terrifying lived in the town dump). "Peter And The Dead Men" is the first story in the collection. A new page is posted every day.

Remember: Communism was just a red herring.

I give Dill points for trying though.

Little did you know, the 'mummy' is a mummified 4000 year-old herring. And smells REALLY bad.
Um the Muse -
Oh snap! Um's using my old "in the future..." comments against me!
Ahhhhh...okay, they were only mildly stupid ancient Egyptians.
Kelly -
