Labor Day

Ah, the blessed holiday known as Labor Day. Today signifies the official end of Summertime. On this day, we have one more chance to get a sunburn, catch up on our lawn care, and - weather permitting - one last chance for a barbecue.

I always found it kind of odd that America chooses to celebrate the tradition of hard work by taking the day off. Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining. I just think it's odd.

If you're extremely bored today, take a look at the history of labor day from the U.S. Department of Labor website.

Have a great holiday and please, don't fall asleep while tanning.
