Fun House: Fractured history sometimes funny

Several years ago, my niece, Julia Hirata, was telling us about Marco Polo and the Chinese inventions he brought back to Europe.

I turned to her then 4-year-old brother, Cuyler, and asked him if he know who Marco Polo was. "Yes ... he makes shirts with horses on them."
