Warning. Expletives to follow.
To commemorate the landing of Christopher Columbus in San Salvador, the president commissioned an artist to paint a mural. The artist's instructions were simple: "Paint an image of what Columbus' first thought was upon seeing this land."
The artist thought and thought. After many months of sketching and studying Columbus himself, the artist hit upon the perfect image.
Painting began and no one was allowed to see it before the unveiling.
At last the day of festivities honoring Christopher Columbus arrived. Everyone held their breath in anticipation as the curtain was dropped from in front of the mural.
The silence was deafening as all eyes took in the enormous painting.
At the top was a large fish with a halo. Below the fish were the mountains leading down to the beach. On the beach were hundreds of indians having sex in every position possible.
Stunned, the president turned to the artist and asked, "What is the meaning of this atrocity?"
The artist replied, "Columbus' first thought upon seeing this land was: Holy Mackerel! Look at all the fucking indians!"
Happy Columbus Day to one and all!
