On this day we celebrate the greatest explorer to ever live. He was the first man to ever even gaze upon the Americas. He even brought indians to the land and helped them settle there.

Seriously though, I'm soooo glad it's a three day weekend over here. I need this. I need this BAD.

We just had a 3 day weekend, but I've already forgotten what it was for. I just know I needed it

So, what are your plans for the weekend? Going away anywhere?

I just got drunk and stuff.

I'll be doing the same thing I do every weekend, playing World of Warcraft. I'm saving up for a [Glowing Brightwood Staff]. It'll pwn.

I do need to do some cleaning though. I think that out of all the rotten food groups, chinese is the worst.

I was supposed to clean last weekend, but all I did was watch Fullmetal Alchemist, drink, and oversleep.

I haven't played any WoW.

I hear that Columbus wasn't that great of a man -- at least not as much as we make him out to be. His first thought, apparently, was to enslave the poor American indians big meany pants

I doubt the weekend will be any different than any other for me. I'll probably sleep all day

He's really not. The only notable thing he did was enslave/kill a bunch of indians. :/ I'll never understand why we celebrate this day. Rest assured, if I ever become President this will be one of the first thing I change. Right after I announced Official Lesbian Appreciation Day.

Well, Columbus found a new country but it isn´t very nice to kill/enslave people.

That new kind of celebration idea you have is way better.

Schools here don't get this day off!! Federal workers or whatever do..or so I've heard. I want a 3 day weekend but I won't be getting one umm..until the next holiday?

I guess you could call this a 2 1/2 day weekend since I have one class tomorrow but I still have to get up kind of early.

I thought Columbus was an okay guy until I learned..that he really wasn't.. and all that stuff he did. I've always wondered why we end up celebrating it. Well, schools don't so that's okay.

In better news, 1492 was the year that not only the New World was "discovered" (the Americas had already been reached by the Norse, Japanese, Scots, Greeks, Basques and various other peoples)...It was also the year that Southern Spain was reclaimed by the Western Europeans from the Tolouse Omyyad Caliphate. Yay.

I didn't learn Columbus did all that stuff to the indians until about..a year or two ago when my younger sister mentioned it..and my mom . It's like they leave that part out when teaching you it until later years.

Columbus discovered America. Don't talk so mean about him! This place was uninhabited before he came over! There were no "Native Americans", that's a lie told to you by liberals who want to make it sound like rich white people are evil and enslave everyone less fortunate than them. Next time, think before you speak ill of the great man who was the first human to step foot on this great land!

There are no Native Americans in my area. Probably because They were all exiled to the desert they never existed and are a lie propagated by the liberals. Damn those liberals!
