The Egyptians and the Mayas (and possibly the Incas) were a bunch of badasses way ahead of their time...yet one thing they couldn't master was a way to time travel us into the future so we could get to training camp already.

Just watch Stargate re-runs and you'll be alright.

This stuff is pretty cool. There was definitely something going on with ancient Egyptian culture. Any time there is something on TLC/NatGeo/History Channel on ancient egypt I try to watch.
