Emergency stealth episode where nothing serious gets discussed

In honor of Cinco de Mayo, a celebration of Mexican culture that has been celebrated in California continuously since 1863 but is virtually ignored in Mexico, we interrupt the serious plans below for a completely frivolous recording. Highlights will include:

  • "La Cucaracha"
  • List of holidays that occur today.
  • Shoemaker's Holiday sings Gilbert and Sullivan. Today's selection: Wikipedia:If you're anxious for to shine.
  • The Wannabe Scot contest where Wikipedians imitate Scottish accents. Entrants will be judged on a scale of 1 to 10, but any mention of haggis results in an automatic 2. The winner will receive an image award that celebrates Mexican culture.
    • Update: this was later won by Seddon69, and was judged by AGK, the only NTWWian who is actually a Scot :) Second place went to Filll.
  • Durova sings Stand by Me as The Sockpuppet Ballad.
  • Strange bodily noises. For belches, minimum performance time is 3 seconds with a good chest tone.
