May 2 is the 122nd day of the year (123rd in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar; 243 days remain until the end of the year.
Quiet! Let that sink in for a minute! That would be enough to celebrate this day every year. But there is more…
It is also the Birthday of John Glascock, Bassist for the progressive rock band Jethro Tull from 1976 until his premature death in 1979 from a congenital heart ailment.
He was born John Bottlepenis in Islington, England, 1951, but changed his name in 1965 to stop the endless stream of cruel jokes at his expense.
