1. The Workers Holidy
Inaugurated, I believe, right here in America. But of course the idea of a holiday celebrating workers is kind of communist, so now we have labor day instead. Which also celebrates workers, but in a corporate approved manner.

2. I've been there and done that
I have no idea what it was for, but it was a break from class none the less.

6. I seem to remember
from French class that May day is when men give women flowers. It's been a long time since I was in French class.

8. Happy Beltane
The pagan holiday of lust, sexual power and celebration of the stirring loins of spring. An homage to the pole, masculinity and the sacred phallus that rises in the spring and dies in the fall.
