800 Years and Still Legendary...

800 years ago, Genghis Khan unified the Mongol tribes. And Mongolia is celebrating, as well they should. Few have so profoundly influenced history . . .

I mean, without Khan, we wouldn't have:
  • An utterly forgettable John Wayne movie, The Conqueror
  • John Kerry's testimony of US troops behaving in Vietnam "...in a manner reminiscent of Jen-jis Khan..."
  • Mongolian Barbecue (yum!)
  • And, of course:


KHA-A-A-N!

Mongolian Barbeque.

There's one near where I live. I feel so blessed.
