I guess, pretty soon, we'll have to start singing "Rise and Shine."
(Mods, please note, this song is in the public domain.)

Rise and Shine

Kind of says it all.

Still waiting, TonyN.

Nope..you left out these verses



And the pregnant women, they struggled ugled ugled
until their bodies sunkie unki unki
and god giggled iggled iggled iggled

And the babies gargled gargled water ater
and they drowned and die e-eye e-eyed
violent death they die e-eye e-eyed
children of the corn

And the dinasaurs, they ran e yane
but the water, it got em good e oodie
and Jesus giggled like a girlie earlie

Don't give up your day job. Your future as a lyricist is problematic.

Awaiting your reply, TonyN, with bated breath.

Perhaps you could confine yourself to:

(1) documenting a gap in Egyptian history in and around Bishop Ussher's date;

(2) documenting the death of approximately 2 million Egyptians during that gap;

(3) documenting the total collapse of Egyptian culture during that gap;

(4) documenting the slow, painful revival of Egypt from a devastation worse than anything we can imagine: total and complete destruction of population, economy and culture.

Have fun.

I'm very excited about hearing explanations for this. I'm sure that, after explaining this, it will be a cake walk to explain how 2 million Jews fleeing Egypt can leave no trace of themselves.

True, but let's keep the focus on the flood. We can have fun with the Exodus, etc., later.

Waitin' for ya, TonyN.

Thanks. Found it.

Sadly, I'll have to respond on another day, as GF visiting, and it would take too much time.

You will imagine, though, that I don't find your responses convincing.

While we're waiting for TonyN

Bishop Ussher’s Flood Date – 2348

5th Dynasty (2465 - 2323 BC)

http://www.touregypt.net/ehistory.htm


Quote:
The present tendency is to assign to Dynasty IV a duration of no more than 160 years and to Dynasty V no more than 140. These figures are small in view of the great works accomplished, but apparently will have to be still further reduced, for there seems no reason to doubt the veracity of a courtier who claimed to have been honored by six kings from Ra'djedef to Sahure', or of a royal prince who enjoyed similar fervor, but starting only with Ra'djedef's successor Chephren. Meanwhile, a striking change had come over the sources from which our knowledge of the period is drawn. The mute and uncommunicative character of the early mastabas had given place to an eagerness unparalleled in any other ancient land to depict and illustrate almost every aspect of daily life.
