Re Columbus Day:

The market was open but settlement dates were stretched out 1 day.

Federal banks were closed as was that dynamic organization, the U.S.Post Office.

Regional banks remained open.

The media covered Christopher Columbus by observing that)

His real name was Cristoforo Colombo. (AMAZING)

He didn’t discover America…one of his crew spotted land before he did.
What we call the American Indian was here before him. ( ASTONISHING)

They were not even Indians.
CC was looking for India, so he called the inhabitants Indians. :(BRILLIANT

Actually, the locals didn’t know their own name and were overjoyed to actually be someone.

Queen of Spain didn’t hock her jewels to subsidize old CC. She wrote a check!

He didn’t prove that the earth was round…Everybody knew, but they were afraid to say it!

So much for ” TRUTH IN ADVERTISING

The world really needs to set the record straight.
’ Good Night and Good Luck ’
