Cave man: ?
Danae:...Which is a much more plausible explanation than your high-rise stables for unicorns theory.
Lucy: Yeah, but not nearly as much fun.
Recent archaelogical excavations near the pyramid of Khufu show that the workers were well fed, well housed and had decent medical care. Now if we can only figure out how they did that. We haven’t been able to achieve that in the US.
There’s an old Mad Magazine cartoon with a pyramid and a cutaway view, showing that the top of the pyramid is merely the crown of the giant statue’s head. People walking by with no idea what lies beneath.
That is more than just a passing theory. Very good Wiley! Now we maybe know something about Danae; intuitive like crazy. You might ask her where all the sand went; or how frequently as the climate over 10s of thousands of years. Now Lucy’s theory is different. Good to also get her to expel; horse sense, of course.
a long time ago I saw photos of shapes on Mars they said resembled the pyramids in Egypt . supposedly Cairo is another word for Mars.

It’s another mystery we’ll probably never solve. Like what happened at Dealey plaza on a certain day in 1963.

Actually it’s estimated that 10,000 workers took 30 years to make the Giza Pyramid, not 300.

Working on the pyramids was also considered serving the gods in order to build up your time in the afterlife.

I think the invention of beer was involved with the construction of the pyramids – kept the workers happy and placid.

Actually the first pyramid was the result of a huge communication failure. The Pharaoh wanted to party and asked for a pair of mids.

Biggest flaw in Danae’s theory is the Red haired discoverer.

Napoleon had his troops use the nose for target practice, which is why it no longer has a nose.
