Bollocks!

Today is Guy Fawkes Night! It commemorates the day Guy Fawkes did not blow up the House of Lords, which seems unfair. I didn't blow up the House of Lords, either, but no one named any holiays after me! Ah, well. Celebrate the day with lots of fireworks or, if that's not your thing, by playing in a hiphop-punk-electronica band. Your choice.

This is also the birthday of Lynn Cullen, the controversial character from The Look Alike Series. Love her or hate her, you can't deny that the series had an impact on fandom.
