    The amount of time that the Ancient Egyptian civilization lasted is just so mind boggling. It lasted over 3000 years.

    That's such an insane amount of time. It ended around 30BC meaning that it will only be extinct for as long as it existed
    in around another 950 years.

    Cleopatra lived closer to the invention of bitcoin than the building of the pyramids of Giza. They were already ancient in her lifetime.

    There are records from the time of Ramses Il of ancient Egyptians doing archeology on monuments that were already a thousand years old to them.

    Ancient Egyptian archeologists.
    Excuse me I have to go lay down and think about things.

    Impossible. Neither the bullwhip nor the fedora had been invented yet.

    Kris Kristofferson was a star athelete in high school and college, and a Rhodes scholar who earned a degree in literature. He then joined the Army and became a helicopter pilot as well as completing Ranger training and earning his Ranger tab. While stationed in Germany he started a band, where he really exercised his love of songwriting and performing.

    In 1965, Captain Kristofferson was offered a job teaching literature at West Point, but he turned it down and retired from the Army to try to launch a music career. He worked odd jobs, including as a janitor and as a commercial helicopter pilot, until one day he wrote a sign he thought would be perfect for Johnny Cash.

    Of course, nobody knew who Kris Kristofferson was at the time, so getting the song and demo tape into Cash's hands was a frustrating series of failures and setbacks. Until one day, when Kristofferson decided to go for broke, He stole a helicopter from the National Guard and landed it on Johnny Cash's front yard - which led to a surprisingly cordial face-to-face meeting between the two, a long friendshp, and a hit for Cash with "Sunday Morning Coming Down" - the song Kristofferson wanted to give him.
