Remember, remember the 5th of November.

V for Vendetta... probably one of my movies of all time (Which makes sense seeing as my favorite book is 1984 and I love any other dystopian work in the universe). Every November 5, I like to celebrate Guy Fawkes Day by watching the movie. This year's big day happens to fall on what one might call a local holiday... the Alabama v. LSU game. A rivalry, you might say. The match-up of the year. The "Real" National Championship. The Game of the Century. Armageddon. Ok, you get it.

Needless to say, I doubt Guy Fawkes will be on the minds of the hundreds of thousands of Bama and LSU fans flocking to Tuscaloosa for the match-up, so I have divised a way to incorporate the two. A for Alabama. No, I won't be making a film (there's an idea...) about A for Alabama, but I did painstakingly rewrite V's Famous Speech to include all a-words instead of v-words (see below). May I humbly suggest that Saban use the speech as his half-time locker room pump-up? And that the entire student section weara  Guy Fawkes mask to the game. Too audacious of me? Hey, a movement has to begin somewhere.

Besides the fact that this idea supports a mega-institution of football, fame and fortune, I think Guy Fawkes might give a hearty "Roll Tide!" to my idea. I'll be making this little diddy my Facebook profile picture for a while. (Feel free to do the same - I'm not holding any creative rights.) I just want us all to join together in celebrating Nick Saban Day Guy Fawkes Day.

Roll Tide Y'all!  

  

Original V Speech:
Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villian by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a by-gone vexation, stands vivified and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin vanguarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition. The only verdict is vengence; a vendetta, held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous. Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose, so let me simply add that it is my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V.

My A Speech:
Abracadabra! In aspect, a humble acrobat, cast assumingly as both aim and anti-hero by the alternatives of fate. This arrival, no mere appearance of arrogance, is an authority of the adversary, now appearing absent. However, this audacious attendance of a by-gone annoyance stands animate, and has asserted to annihilate these amoral and active apexes aggravating annoyances and allowing the aggressively attacking and avid abuse of assessment. The only answer is avengement; an association, held as an average, not in arrogance, for the appraisal and accuracy of such shall one day absolve the attentive and the admirable. Actually, this accumulation of absurdity argues most altered, so let me simply add that it is my awfully good honor to meet you and you may call me A.

Yes, I'm ridiculous Absurd.
