"AN ANCIENT riddle about the mummified remains of King Tutankhamun has been solved...
"When a team from Liverpool University X-rayed King Tutankhamun's body in 1968, about 3,300 years after the king’s death, they could find no sign of his penis. There was speculation that it had been stolen and sold to a private collector.(um, the collector who also had Rasputin's thingy in a jar? me wonders)
Actually, the Pharaoh's phallus was in phine phorm (couldn't resist alliteration...) when it was phound in the sand next to the mummified body. “It has always been there,” Professor Hawass told the Australian Broadcasting Corporation this week. “I found it during the scan when the mummy was lifted.”
“The pharaoh’s sex organ is clearly visible in Burton’s pictures; all was normal in King Tut. The penis is a highly vascularised organ and shrinks when it is mummified.”
sure, and George Costanza's wang-dang was shrivelled up just from being in the cold water...sure, sure...
