Actually, most kids learn that it was Leif Garrett, child Tiger Beat heartthrob and now actor on those “World’s Dumbest” shows, who discovered America.
I am pretty sure no one thinks Chris Colon did it...

Thanks. If there was an “ice age” there would have been larger land masses and traveling between the continents might not have been as difficult as we think.

“His sailors inter-married with a local Native American tribe..”
This is why most American Indians can sing like Tom Jones and Englebert or that wee Sheena Easton.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think if you sail westward from Wales, you end up in Ireland...

if you sail westward from Wales, you end up in Ireland... Not if the Welshman has a brain in his head...and wants to keep it there.

And the Indians greeted the Prince with the famous line, “Aaah, what’s up, Madoc?”

Just goes to show that finding is not as important as keeping.

well, yes, Englebert Humperdinck is half-Indian, half-English (I hate the term “Indian” for native Americans!), just like Cliff Richards
