I'm off for a much needed vacation but I wanted to wish everyone in the U.S. a happy and safe Labor day weekend.  I've always been particularly fond of Labor Day because it's a holiday that doesn't really mean anything. 

It's a day away from labor so essentially it's a holiday that exists to be nothing more than a holiday.  No paying respect to some long dead historical figure or paying deference to your deity of choice.  Just a simple day off with no strings attached.

I'll be on vacation until the 9th and staying away from blogging for the most part but I do have a few automated posts that I pre-wrote to keep the site from going completely dark.  They'll popup every couple of days or so.

So have fun and I'll see everyone in a week or so.
