Lost in Time

I found myself traveling back in time to a small village in the harsh desert. I looked around and saw that the clothes people wore looked like the costumes from the movie The Ten Commandments. It’s hard to know at what point in time I was in because I think those garments were all people wore from the year 7000 BC to 1100 AD.

I asked a young beggar what year it was. He said he didn’t know. Then he asked me to pay him for the information. I said he didn’t give me an answer. He said, “I did. I said I didn’t know.” The beggar persisted. To freak him out, I gave him a dollar bill. Because it was colorful, he ate it.

I asked the beggar his name. He said Moses. It’s amazing how down and out some famous people were before they hit the big time.
