I seem to recall seeing a picture of an Egytian relief depicting Alexander as Pharaoh. Is this just my imagination? I can't seem to find it anywhere now. Thanks for the help. Pam

That's how I ended up being Pam and Pamm.

I guess it got published for the same reasons the National Enquirer and Star (rag sheets here in the US) keep selling at the supermarket check out lines.I must say, I was a bit angry when I first started reading the posts about this book but when I got toward the end I found myself laughing!
