I love National Geographic. They cover a huge range of topics and now and then, they just make me smile.

Today was a good example of that. I recently liked Nat Geo on Facebook, and now get status updates from them. So far, so cool. An update from Tuesday ran as follows:

“Hailing from China’s ‘heyday of chariot warfare’, five well-preserved chariots with accompanying horses, emerged from an urban tomb.”

Apparently their “heyday of chariot warfare” was pretty recent. Chariots might last for a while, but horses, not so much. At least not in any shape to emerge from a tomb.

Personally, when I read this I had a visual of “The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor”. That’s probably just me though.

One way or the other, it made me smile. Thank you National Geographic!

Cheers, Winston
