Ultra Cola...the Refreshing Way to Explore the World!


Happy Columbus Day! Today we observe the anniversary of Christopher Columbus discovering America. The anniversary is technically on October 12th and not the 10th, but then again Columbus technically didn't discover America, either. So it all works out.

Columbus Day was also celebrated by Beavis, Butt-head, and Daria in Beavis and Butt-head issue 22, in which the intrepid duo succeed in discovering new ways to piss Daria off. Thanks to Charles RB for the head's up about the link to the comic book summary!

Today is also both Thanksgiving in Canada and World Mental Health Day, and it's fitting that the two go hand-in-hand. After all, the Holiday Island version of Thanksgiving has "a lot of screwed-up family problems and always gets depressed by the end of the day." Why should Canada be any different?
