It's Columbus Day


iconHappy Columbus Day.

For those of us with the day off, this is a day where we celebrate Columbus discovering America, kicking the Indians off our land, and his claiming the land for our beloved Queen of Spain. Just how do we celebrate this? Why, by shopping for new cars and cheap matresses of course.

Now, if you are one of the poor saps stuck working today, check out today's PC Watch. Apparently some Native American groups in Denver what Columbus' name kicked off their annual parade.

The protesters likened Columbus to a Nazi and a slave-owner who brought genocide to the Americas.
They still say we can have our super clearance blowout white sales, however, they want the holiday to be "a celebration of Italian culture and make no mention of Columbus".
