Why is Labor Day not a day off for everyone? I mean, most everyone takes Christmas off, and not everybody in America believes in Jesus. But when it comes to a day that’s supposed to be about the working class and their struggles to make an honest buck, we end up … all going to shop and eat and make the working class work that much harder. It just doesn’t make any sense to me. [But hey, I worked some from home yesterday, too.]
All the drama around the Bengals just about has me ready to give up on them. No, the execrable 1990s Bengals didn’t make me give up on them. But the current personnel gaffes? I don’t know, man. I guess I believed in the Marvin Lewis Era, that maybe there were some adults coming to work here, but … sure doesn’t seem like it. It’s kinda sad. I mean, I don’t want to become a Titans fan.
I keep waiting for the same people that think a border fence is a good idea to think that a hurricane flood wall stretching from Brownsville to Key West is a good idea. I mean, look … if we can’t properly levy the Mississippi River to keep it from flooding, no damn wall is gonna work. But now that I’ve mentioned it, someone’s gonna think it’s a great idea.
Since I’m pretty sure of whom I’m voting for, I now just want to put the next two months on fast forward.
HDTV is evil, because it has me watching college football again. I’m just going to be disappointed. Maybe the Luddites have the right idea?
Gosh, I really don’t want to do anything today. But they don’t pay me to whine.

If people wouldn’t go shopping and wouldn’t go out to eat, everyone* could have Labor Day off. Depends on which side you look from.

*Except my holiday employees at the hospital.
Right … sadly, there will always be some people who have to be at work. [My brother works in TV, so I understand this intimately.]
I wouldn’t expect TV to be a necessity. Everyone’s view is different, though.
I see the bullet points for a whatever meme is taking off!
Wonderful!
Daniel, I am inspired by you and aspire to match your wit and candor. But … not the poetry.
