- nickbr00tality, on 03/09/2009, -0/+11Thanksgiving was the Mayflower and the pilgrims and Indians. Almost 200 years after Columbus, or Scotto. So your Thanksgiving beliefs should be safe. Don't doubt!
- StripeyMagee, on 03/08/2009, -5/+16I now have serious doubts about Thanksgiving.

Kinda like how the District of Columbia would sound better as the District of Pedro. - tmyprod, on 03/09/2009, -0/+9Sounds like my kind of guy.
- whoreable, on 03/09/2009, -0/+8The blankets with smallpox should have made you question Thanksgiving.

- proliance, on 03/09/2009, -0/+4From "Uncle John's Legendary Lost Bathroom Reader":
He was never called Columbus in his lifetime. When he was alive he was know by at least 5 other names.
Christoroforo Colombo, which most historians believe is the name given when he was born.
Christovam Colom, the name he was known by when he settled in Portugal and became a successful merchant-seaman.
Christobal Colon. He adopted this name after he moved to Spain (and occasionally Christoual or Colamo).
Christophorus Colonus. This is the name preferred by his son Fernando, who wrote a biography of his dad.
Xpoual de Colon. This is what he was called in his agreement with the King and Queen of Spain before his first voyage across the Atlantic. After 1493, he signed his name Xpo FERENS, using only his first name in the fashion of royalty. - palehorse864, on 03/09/2009, -0/+4They had those at thanksgiving?
Someone should tell Amherst that the pilgrims beat him to the punch. - minnecrapolis, on 03/09/2009, -0/+4The pirate thing kind of made me think this story is *****:
"The historian also claims that the navigator once worked for a pirate called Vincenzo Columbus, and adopted that family name in order not to "expose" his relations."
So he was trying to avoid exposing his relation to pirates by adopting the pirate's family name? - neio, on 03/09/2009, -0/+4His name was Peter Scott.
- richlw, on 03/09/2009, -0/+4I think he took the last name Columbus to hide that fact that he was related to Scots. And that he was Half-Ginger
- Fixhotep, on 03/09/2009, -0/+4OMG NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
You ruined my day - MaruLono, on 03/09/2009, -0/+4In 1492, Pedro sailed the ocean blue.
- teebird, on 03/09/2009, -0/+4"Pedro" is a Spanish name. If he was Genoese, wouldn't his given name have been "Pietro?"
- inactive, on 03/09/2009, -0/+3needs more whore.
- gamebittk, on 03/09/2009, -3/+6Seems like it's just this historians belief. I couldn't find any other articles on this, so it isn't news or anything.

- petebot, on 03/09/2009, -0/+3hey, what was the first rule of fight club again?
