Ah. That's where I left it. |

That's why you ended up riding that Assyrian Lammasu, it's your own fault. Although I understand you get good mileage? |

Name them Leon and Michael…wait, that's Spinks. Never mind. |

Is there any other kind of Sphinx than mysterious? |

The first one is mysterious, this one is just sneaky. Winston, I hope you have the keys or registration papers to show the locals that it's yours. |

Yeah. I've seen a few articles, and no pictures in any of them. Could it be that……? |

It is one of the small ones like those lining the temple pathway. Not like the big one. |

WilliamB That's what I'm thinking too. And there are hundreds of those still around, perhaps thousands. So maybe this is more of a Department of Tourism stunt. To know what it looks like, you must first pay for your trip and get there. Dan |
