Effin' ASPCA ruined a good thing!
But I gotta hand it to the Canadians . . . they kept importing kids from London and Dublin, as forced labor, through the 1930's!
Now . . . who has baby back ribs on sale, this week?
Or maybe smoking a brisket . . .

There are a few greenhouses north of me that hire students from the Netherlands. they pay them 1.50 an hour and put them up in a boarding house and feed them. It's a great gig. Cheap labor. They go back home at the end of winter. Mexicans hate the cold.

Labor day means in the ground slow roasted goat and hatch chili's.

Autumn? What's that?
Almost two weeks of 110 + and through the weekend, too!
Hottest August on record and it looks like September isn't going to be a picnic, either.

You can buy the sets on Amazon and set them up on a porch or patio. I was thinking hard about doing it.

I've had mixed emotions on this day throughout my life. For me now, it's a 3 day weekend, with a paid holiday from work. It's the time when baseball playoff race is getting heated...and most importantly, the start of the NFL/NCAA football season. Much better than when I was a youngin.
As a kid..it meant back-to-school time..and to add insult to injury...being born on Sept 6 th...there were many years when my birthday fell on the 1 st day of school (although nowadays, the kids seem to start a little bit earlier then when I was a kid)

You are no longer in the womb, friend. The competition is tougher out here.
