5. Happy Guy Fawkes Day! The British use fireworks to commemorate the day, but that's about where the happy-go-lucky part of the story ends. Nov. 5 actually remembers the day that could have been devastating for Britain had conspirator Guy Fawkes' plan to blow up Parliament not been foiled. (Yes, we said foiled). On Nov. 5, Britons "celebrate his demise" by burning Fawkes in effigy, shooting fireworks and other such firey activities.
