Happy Guy Fawkes Day!

- Remember, remember the fifth of November
Gunpowder, treason and plot.
On this day in 1605, Guy Fawkes attempted (and failed) to blow up the British Houses of Parliament. He's been toasted ever since (in some circles, at least) as "The last man to enter Parliament with honourable intentions."
