It's Guy Fawkes Day. Call me a sucker for any holiday that involves bonfires and explosions.
Remember, remember, the Fifth of November,
Gunpowder, Treason, and Plot.
We know of no reason why Gunpowder Treason
Should ever be forgot.
In other news, the verdict is in for Saddam Hussein in the Dujail massacre case, and it's no surprise: he's been sentenced to dance the hempen necktie jig. Appeals to follow, of course, but I'll raise a glass come the day. He was a thoroughly bad man, and won't be missed.
I would be less than astonished to find that the Fifth of November becomes a celebrated anniversary in Iraq, as well...
