Monday is Columbus Day. But today is, too.
Monday is the federal holiday “Columbus Day.” It’s one of those holidays that’s observed on Mondays because it’s more important to get a long weekend than it is to properly observe whatever it is that’s being observed. So, if you got Monday off, enjoy it. But know that today is the actual Columbus Day, even though you gotta work.
I learned that Christopher Columbus discovered America because he thought the world was round while everyone else thought it was flat. I’m not sure if I learned that from school, or from Bugs Bunny.
I probably learned it from Bugs Bunny because I paid more attention to Bugs Bunny than I did to school.
Of course, you and I both know that nobody thought the earth was flat in 1492. There are people today that think it’s flat, but that’s just because those people that think that are stupider than people from 1492 were.
Anyway, it’s Columbus Day. Now, go discover a continent with a bunny rabbit.
If anyone ever asks why citations are important, we now have an example.
When has Bugs ever been wrong?
…… When he didn’t take that left turn at Albuquerque.
