Guy Fawkes Day

Remember Remember the 5th of November.
The gunpowder, treason, and plot.
I know of no reason why the gunpowder treason should ever be forgot.

Tons of Fireworks are going off around Edinburgh Tonight (and consider the sun is going down at 4:30 they've been going off for quite some time).

As it would turn out, they do celebrate the 5th of November here (more so than my way of celebrating by watching V for Vendetta) and it is know as Guy Fawkes Day as well (according to the Internet).

Happy Guy Fawkes Day (if that's an ok thing to say?) and just because I can:

"Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a by-gone vexation, stands vivified and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin vanguarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition. The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta, held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous. Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose, so let me simply add that it's my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V."
