The word for May 10 is sando
Slang for a sandwich, usually store bought
As early as the '50's, the Japanese word for sandwich--and this is true--was sandoichi for which sando of course was the abbreviation

A sandoichi would be a number one sandwich, the best.

The word for May 10 is sando... That reminds me of that big sinkhole in Texas on the news the last few days. The Spanish for May 5 is cinco de mayo, so they're calling it 'the sinkhole de mayo' since that's when it appeared.
