Number 3 asked us the other night at dinner, "Hey, doesn't 'labor' mean 'work'?"
which got me thinking....
why DO we have a day of rest on 'labor' day?
So I looked up the history of the 'holiday' here.
Shouldn't the holiday be more appropriately named Labor Union Day?
And since someone from a Labor Union founded Labor Day and since I believe that Labor Unions are choking the life blood right out of the United States, is it a conflict of interest for me to 'celebrate' Labor Day?
You bet!
Therefore, I will forevermore celebrate the day as
"Three-Weeks-Or-So-Before-My-Birthday Day"
