I did have a great day Monday, but personally celebrated Canadian Thanksgiving.
Interesting Columbus fact #1 - When Columbus didn't find gold in the "New World", he took back a full ship full of slaves since he couldn't go back empty handed.
Interesting Columbus fact #2 - Halfway across the ocean, Columbus' crew wanted to turn back and were on the verge of revolt when he reminded them that the Queen had promised a huge reward to the first man to spot land, which quelled the rebellion. However, when the reward was dispensed for the spotting of the land, Columbus did not give it to the man who first spotted it, instead keeping it for himself.
you're right mug, he was an a**hole.
