All Hail Columbus!

If it were not for Chris Columbus, "Gremlins" and "Goonies" would never have been written.

"Adventures in Babysitting", "Home Alone", "Mrs. Doubtfire" and the first two Harry Potter movies would not have been directed.

It is because of this, that we honor you, Chris Columbus, on this day - October 9.

I'm not sure why I get the day off (along with banks, the Post Office and some schools), but I'm not complaining.
