I just walked by my family watching the first Indiana Jones movie. One of the bad guys suggested making Indiana a new resident of the ruin. Has that actually happened in real life?

(Technically only “successful” for the real-life bad guy. It really sucked for the person found.)| Recent Questions - History Stack Exchange

Last month I flew back from Tokyo and I landed at home four hours before I took off from...| The Last Word On Nothing

This post ran back in 2018 and digging it up was another act unearthing oneself, something I end up doing when rummaging in my car, when I clean my desk. Our own lives are archaeology. Put a trowel in your hand and go through your past. Bounce ground penetrating radar through your heart. See what you find. | The Last Word On Nothing
