"Why should I support the robot revolution? I don't hear you demand truth, justice, or freedom." "No," the robot said, "our demands are specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and time-bound." "Let me see that list. Hm. A hard-boiled egg?" "It's for an early supporter."

"As I recall, they used to sing it after battles," he said. "I've seen old men cry when they sing it," he added.
"Why? It sounds cheerful."
They were remembering who they were not singing it with, thought Vimes. You'll learn. I know you will.

Wishing a Glorious 25th of May specifically to people like me who live in area where lilac does NOT bloom in May. Truth! Justice! Freedom! And a floral-based holiday that aligns with my climate zone!

All the little angels, rise up, rise up,
All the little angels rise up high.
How do they rise up, rise up, rise up,
How do they rise up, rise up high?

I managed to pace myself to finish Night Watch exactly on the 25th, which gave me 1) feelings and 2) enough time to use the book to press some lilac into a bookmark

Happy Glorious 25th of May one and all, Sam Vimes is the only person alive (who isn’t a History Monk) who remembers the real John Keel’s actions during the original events surrounding the People’s Republic of Treacle Mine Road and that knowledge will die with him.  Wear the lilac and have a hard boiled egg in Keel’s honor because he Did the Job that Was in Front of Him and a man’s not dead while his name’s still spoken!
