Good morning world

Wishing a good few days to all the workers of the world on this Labor Day weekend. Of course we should all take a moment to remember that we're celebrating a day that had to be created in 1894 because 12,000 of our US Army troops and US Marshals had been called out to put down an American labor uprising that resulted in their killing 13 citizens and wounding others. I'd hate to see that part happen again but I can sure understand why the working class of 2011 might want to rise up in protest of how things are going again today.

And on that cheery note...
