Samedi: Pictures

Why not random pictures on Saturday? When I was in middle school and really in to Ancient Egyptian mythology, I always imagined these two as a couple. I love this piece for that reason. That, and the rings on Bastet's tail...

Captain: I remember the dramatization of those wicked swords in The History Channel's "Battles B.C." Ramses at Kadesh episode. The Egyptians cleaned house with those things.

Timmy! Yeah, she love that one.

Wally: Exactly!
