May I?

Ah May, the 5th month of the year by Gregorian standards and not 2 days ago was the day when some jackass German took a pill and shot himself in the head not that it bears any significance to the following month and yesterday was May day where once a year every working person would run out and call for help, some say it's the 8th day of the week between Tuesday and Wednesday but nobody seems to notice.

Let's take a look at today in history.

1829 - Some British naval Captain established a colony on some coast in some country. Nobody else cares

1945 - Some German General surrendered a German City to some Russian general. Nobody else but the Russians cared

1982 - A British ship sank an Argentinian ship over some insignificant islands with falcons. The falcons couldn't care less

Annual celebrations observed this month:

01/05: May day, The one day where people notice that there are 8 days in a week yet are always frustrated as it is not always celebrated between Tuesday and Wedneday causing people to march to the streets.

05/05: Mayonnaise day, Where people pour mayonnaise all over the sink yelling OSOS!

08/05: VE Day (Australia only), otherwise known as cheap beer day where everyone drinks VB in excess, the E is a typo error due to the drunken state of the the entire Victorian populous where the day was first celebrated.

25/05: Towel day, Stick your thumb out, you're in for one hell of a ride. Oh don't forget to bring your towel. (thank's Doug)
