"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."
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!
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!
