Colonel Sanders, the iconic founder of Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC), was not a colonel in the military sense. The title "Colonel" was an honorary one granted to him by the Governor of Kentucky. In the state of Kentucky, this title is a significant honor typically awarded in recognition of outstanding achievements and dedicated service to the community. What's interesting is that Colonel Sanders received this honorary title not once but twice. He was first named a Colonel in 1935, and then, in 1949, he received the title again. This recognition is a testament to the impact he made, not just as a businessman but as a cultural and culinary icon, leaving a lasting legacy in the world of fast food and fried chicken.

This mummy tomb, sealed for 2500 years, has been opened for the first time. In late 2020, archaeologists in Egypt opened an ancient mummy coffin in front of a live audience, unsealing the first of 59 sealed sarcophagi found earlier that year in Saqqara, a vast ancient burial ground in Egypt that served as the necropolis of the ancient city of Memphis. Egypt's Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities stated that 59 wooden coffins were discovered inside burial wells in Saqqara's archaeology area. The wooden coffins were in good condition and contained the bodies of Egyptian priests, prestigious community members, and other senior men. The first wooden sarcophagus contained the mummy of a deceased priest who was wrapped in an "ornate burial cloth" decorated to resemble the deceased's face. Many questioned whether opening the sealed mummies was a good idea in 2020, as it is believed by some that opening tombs or coffins may bring bad luck.
