indians
why do we call native americans indians? heh. why do we even call them native americans? sheehs. they're ottawas apaches mohawks cherokees blackfoot etc. cristobal colon was lost. he thought he was somewhere near indonesia. i mean, sioux um crow. you can't get much more lost. the island now known as the dominican republic is on the opposite side of the frikken globe from where he was trying to go. at least the name cristobian or colonians didn't catch on. hrm. heh. that's almost funny. anywho, in grade school we were taught everyone was stupid and thought the world was flat. except for columbus. sheehs. the greeks knew the world was round. they deduced the shape from observing lunar eclipses. they even knew the size of the (round) earth. columbus' great idea was they were wrong. and the earth was really much smaller. course he was the one who was wrong. and got really lucky he happened to set course for land. if the atlantic was the size of the pacific he probably wouldn't have gotten in the history books. i wrote a play for a high school class about the queen of spain not recognizing the name cristobal colon when he returned. her advisor reminded her she paid him to take three boatloads of convicts and sail off the edge of the world. hey, it was cheaper than housing them. anywho, learn the name of their tribe. or start referring to yourself as chinese.
