Thanks for the thread, Pookie! It's hump day!
It's also Guy Fawkes Day/Night, otherwise known as Gunpowder Day! Guy Fawkes was arrested on this day in 1605 for trying to blow up the British Parliament with gunpowder. When you see the OWS types running around in Guy Fawkes masks, remember they are celebrating a fundamentalist British Catholic who was trying to overthrow the government to create a theocracy. He was eventually tortured to death in the Tower of London.
For me, it's simply "Gloating Day"...
