One day, in Egypt, archaeologists found a mummy. When they looked at the person
who is inside the mummy, all the archaeologists said: "It's Adam!!! (yes, Eve's
husband!)".How can they say that without any doubt?




To confuse nobody, this didn't happen for real. It's just an enigma...

Because he didn't have a belly button, of course.

I don't think that's good enough.

A pair of (or does that imply four individuals?) Siamese twins were 
successfully seperated two weeks ago at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN. 
The big debate was which one would get the belly button.  I think they 
decided on the baby that was slightly smaller (probably so she could taunt
her bigger sibling).
