IT'S COLUMBUS DAY Oh! "That's the day we get no mail" (963 hits)


I literally forgot, it's Columbus Day. So what, many across the nation of the US don't really celebrate it anyway? We just know it's a day we don't get any mail. Out of the few Federal Holidays, to my recall-- Columbus Day is one of the least celebrated. He's suppose to be the Spanish guy that discovered this fine country of ours. I admit it, okay my history of America is more bleak than I thought. We've lost a lot of our country's history, black history, and even just general detail of that song "This land is your land, this land is my land" song. So I thought I'd just remind you, even if you don't celebrate Columbus Day with a attending a parade, or things around your town. You know it's named after Christopher Columbus the guy who discovered America with the Nina, Pinta and the Santa Maria ships. Hope you enjoyed Columbus Day anyway. This land was made for you and me!

Are you kidding?!! Columbus Day is not even a holiday to begin with. Because Columbus never even came to America. The fool landed in the West Indies. That's why for the most part, Columbus Day is observed. Yeah, most banks are closed on Columbus Day and there is no postal mail delivery, but it is no longer an official holiday. Because Christopher Columbus didn't discover JACK SQUAT!!! You can't discover something that's already existed for 10's of thousands of years! And Columbus was Italian. But he spoke both Spanish and Italian.
