Shooting at TDKR Midnight Premiere in Aurora, CO. Multiple dead.
At least 10 moviegoers were killed and 39 injured at a cinema in the Colorado city of Aurora in the Denver suburbs. They were attending a midnight showing of the new Batman film, The Dark Knight Rises.
The theater was packed with a lot of people, many of them young fans, at the time the shooting started, 9news reports. The violence erupted some 15 minutes after the movie started, witnesses said. Some say that when they first heard the shooting, they thought it was some new type of special effect. Local media reports that two gunmen were involved in the rampage. An explosive device was set off during the shooting, injuring several people. Witnesses said the gunmen were probably wearing body armor and gas masks and used some kind of a tear gas bomb in the attack. Some reports say police have apprehended one of the assailants while the second one is still at large. Police have cleared people from the scene over fears that another explosive device might be on the premises. Aurora medical services were alerted to attend to the large number of injured http://www.rt.com/news/shooting-dark...er-aurora-654/ WOW |

If you assume a life expectancy of 85 years, his sentence comes to 4,338 years. That means that an Egyptian guy who did this in the year 2323 BC would be packing up his stuff to return to society now.
2323 BC was the last year of the 5th Dynasty in Egypt, so it's a feasible scenario if it was chaotic. In case you're curious, Unas was the pharoah then: http://www.ancient-egypt.org/history...nas/index.html. If you're wondering, the pyramids at Giza had been around for about 250 years, so the crime wouldn't have been related to them.

Good questions. If the guy had a couple of shekels in his pocket when he went in, I hope he invested them and didn't just let them sit in a plastic baggy that whole time. If you invested 1 cent in 2323 BC and got a modest 3 percent annual return, it would be worth $483,795,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 today. Of course, that's assuming that you didn't lose it all in the Dark Ages or during the fall of Rome.

Seems reasonable as long as the priests didn't burn up the records. Can you imagine being an early investor in corn and potatoes? You'd make a fortune.

I think corn would be the way to go. Hey. Do you know how many potatoes it takes to kill an Irishman? None.
