Here is a funny story.
When I went to Egypt last year we hired a local guy to take us to the Valley of the Kings and show us around and give us a bit of touring. It was pretty nice and his English was very good and he told us he was always improving on it. During some of his explanations of the heiroglyphic carvings though he kept referring to snacks, which I thought was kind of a glib way to refer to funerary food. At one point he finally pointed to a picture as he was saying 'snacks' and oh duh he is saying SNAKES.
Of course by that time I couldn't tell him he had the word wrong because I'd been listening for about ten minutes. I felt bad.
Arbok will show them... he'll show them ALL!
