Scherererer	Ha! I just thought I'd beat the British to the celebration of Bonfire night since I'm American.

Jayenkai	I beat you! I've had my Firework Avatar up for most of the week. For reference, Bonfire Night Suxorz! (When you're stuck in a shop selling loads of Fireworks, but not seeing any of them! ) -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

power mousey	ha!, ha! yeah, but I betcha the British Parliament didn't have to deal with flocks of New Agers, Ufonaunts,Rasputin and Nostradamus enthusiasts, etc... nor even waiting for Elvis Presley to come back in a flying saucer. :0 cheers, power mousey

steve_ancell	@Instinct... Well, technically they did burn a man and are having a festival for it. . Actually, if you are referring to Guy Fawkes, he was beheaded, drawn and quartered.... Whoa !... What a mess that must have been !. \|edit\| I reckon the only reason the British government are trying to ban private purchase of fireworks is because when the historical event was attempted, it was an attempt to assasinate the entire government with gunpowder. Just think how much better off us Britts would have been if Guy Fawkes had succeded... \|edit\|

magicman	hmm, assaniateing the entire goverment with gunpowder, reminds me of a movie, "V for Vendette", thats a good movie, i think i will go and buy it this week, or at least rent it. -=-=- Stuff... Yeah...

steve_ancell	@ HoboBen.... LOL

Scherererer	Dude, magicman, the reason V for Vendette reminds you of it so much is because it references Guy Fawks so much. He even wears a Fawks mask and further blows up Parliment in his vision and in the vision of reform and removal of corruption. -=-=- YouTube Twitter Computer Science Series: Logic (pt1) (part 2) (part 3) 2's Complement Mathematics: Basic Differential Calculus

tnt23	yeah, as soon as i read the post I thought of V saying remember remember the fifth of november... that was a good movie. the movie makes more sense now, I didn't know it was a real holiday. -=-=- What if this were not a hypothetical question?
