Hey, why don't I get Spider Monkey Day off? I think I need to file a complaint with my boss about that.
I love your comic, btw. A friend turned me on to it about a month ago, I read all the archives in one night and have been a loyal reader ever since. Keep up the great work!
Spider Monkey Day? What an excellent idea. As a federal employee, I salute you, sir…well, I would, if I didn't have the day off. I'll salute you tomorrow.
And now they've changed it to Discoverer's Day, which is even worse. HE DIDN'T DISCOVER ANYTHING! He explored, sure, but there were already people everywhere he went!
Hello there, I am Paolo from Genoa, Christopher Columbus' hometown; your strip is funny as usual, but I will take the liberty to fiddle with it and substitute the typical Genoese interjection: "Belandi!" (which is a bowdlerization of "Belin!" which means "Penis!", used as you yanks may say "Holy Shit" of "Jumpin' Jesus" or something…) instead of the more generic "Mamma mia!".
Oh and genoese people are notorious for being sour, grumpy and not talkative or expansive at all.
😉
Now you know! (And knowing is half of a battle completed by equal proportions of red lasers and blue lasers).

Awesome! Glad to have you on board.
YOU ARE A COMIC GOD!
Panel three made me chuckle. And Spider Monkey Day is a totally legit holiday.
Spidermonkey day, the day we celebrate Mozilla's JavaScript rendering engine!
Internets to you sir!
I google it his birthday is 31 October 1451 but the 60's is also fine.
I never knew Christopher Columbus was so spooooooky!
It's the perfect Halloween costume! Celebrate two holidays at once!
I'm Canadian. Why don't we get a Spider Monkey day? I'll settle for Beer Appreciation day.
BEER!!!!
It's called St Paddy's day.
And Cinco de Mayo and Memorial Day and 4th of July and… oh, Canada, right.
I'm gonna be honest, I read your comment too quickly and read "I'm Canadian. Why don't we get a Spider Monkey day, Eh?"
Sorry. XD
I motion to declare October 12th as the International Spider Monkey Day
I second International Spider Monkey Day! Celebration to be had at Adam's house.
"Land o' Lakes over there says she's never even HEARD of India."
That is going to keep me giggling all day… i LOVE it!
What kind of meals would you prepare to celebrate Spider Monkey Day? Sounds like it could get interesting.
That's why I didn't get mail today!

Good to know. I'll try remembering that for the next Columbus Day joke I do.
It’s more historically accurate than “The Magic Voyage.”
Funniest thing about Columbus? The poor bastard died without knowing he discovered a whole new continent.
