mar 21, 1492 - Christopher Columbus sails around the world towards India
Description:
"'Wait!' said Christopher Columbus, probably smoking crack. 'If the world is round, let's go this way to India.'
'Na, don't worry, we already got this', said Portugal.
So Chris goes to Spain. 'Heh Spain! Want to hire me to find India by going around the back of the world?'
'No.'
'Please?'
'No.'
'Please?'
'No.'
'Please?'
'Ok.'
'So he sails into the ocean. And discovers...more ocean - and discovers the Indies, and Japan."
