Much cooler. Unfortunately I got rid of most of the skeletons--
they paid for the Oasis Ambushes! :)

You know how much that's entered our cultural lexicon? I
whispered, while watching "The Mummy Returns" last weekend,
during the scene when the one guard of Imhotep's is at the
oasis and edging towards the covey where one of those pygmy
mummies is hiding, "Oh man, the redshirt always gets it first"
(he was wearing a red wrap and headdress)--to chuckles from
everyone in the adjacent seats. I hadn't figured they would
hear, much less pick up the reference, but I guess it's
like "Bring Out Yer Dead" and "Live, from New York..."
