Happy Guy Fawkes Day

Post by TheAuldGrumpReturns »

So are you celebrating the attempt, or the failure?

The Auld Grump, still amused by the coincidence of election day and Guy Fawkes....

Aaaand it just occurred to me that I forgot to put the strip number on #105. I'll get to that tomorrow.

We used to celebrate it down here, until the State Government banned it and fireworks in one fell swoop...

Regarding Darth Paradox's reply... Auld Grump collects $5 from himself.

The Auld Grump, well somebody has to be the sideman....

Yes! Brill! Guy Fawkes! Fire! Woohoo!

How come we don't celebrate it in the U.S.? Okay, it's a British holiday, but you'd think people (especially Americans) would look for any excuse to set things on fire.

There's this really obnoxious guy who lives across the hall from me...my roommates and I decided to burn him in effigy on Guy Fawkes day.

Sadly, I had a seven-hour rehearsal for the opera that night, and forgot about it. :( Too bad...we were gonna make a huge party out of it, with pretty much the entire dorm. Well, maybe next year...
