Remember, remember!
The fifth of November
The gunpowder treason and plot.
I know of no reason
Why the gunpowder treason
Should ever be forgot.

     Yep, today is Guy Fawkes Day, celebrating his attempt to blow up 
Parliament in 1605 with kegs of gunpowder.  So break out the fizgigs and 
celebrate.  The entire poem can be seen here:

     The image of the Guy Fawkes mask has become a symbol of defiance, cast by 
the graphic novel and later movie "V for Vendetta" and by the cyber underground 
group Anonymous.
