That's so cool! None of those May Day traditions really exist down here in the south, or at least they didn't while I was growing up.

I did that, in Maryland, BoPo, but it was Motessori School, so go figure.

I did that, in Maryland, BoPo, but it was my wedding, so go figure.

I may have done that at some time, BoPo, but I've never been to Maryland, so go figure.

Hey, hey, first of May,
Outdoor screwing starts today!

Not in England, too damn cold.

There was a protest march about immigrant rights down Broadway past my store today for May Day. I think they just want to take jobs away from American protestors.

You can actually get a job as a professional protester? Cool. Outdoors, a lot of walking. Wonder what the benefits are like?

You have nothing to lose but your chains, and a world to win. Plus full medical and dental!

You do have to provide your own picket sign and body odor, though.
