But anyway, I was just reading it said Pharaohs were mummified with their hands crossed over their chest...Sherri:Yes...Brant:because the ancient Egyptians believed there would be countless water slides in the afterlife.Sherri: [laughter] Well done.Brant:I don't think so. I got to throw up the flag. I just don't think it's true.Sherri: [Uncontrolled laughter]
