Socialist Review To Observe May Day

In his post, "Here at the Socialist Review," Paul Turner/The Slice blog writes: "Pay no attention to the fact we always endorse the Republican presidential candidate. That name is too wonderful to disavow. Sherman Alexie once said, ages ago, that the absurdity of some locals calling this newspaper The Socialist Review was one of his favorite things about Spokane. Anyway, here's the question. Seeing as we are all obviously Commies down here at Riverside and Monroe, how should we celebrate May Day tomorrow?"

  • Call each other comrade?
  • Share the wealth?
  • Everybody wear red?

We're open to ideas.
