I've been looking into this NG for 2 years now. Sometimes I reply to
some artwork that I like. I stay in the background because I am *CRAP*
at ascii art.

*BUT* what is Labour (Labor) day? I'm sure there is some humour (humor)
in there somewhere, but I'm afraid it's lost on me.

Would someone PLEASE explain......

Despite recent attempts at humor re: Labor Day,  it is supposed to be a serious
holiday...
From:
http://www.dol.gov/dol/opa/public/aboutdol/laborday.htm
THE HISTORY OF LABOR DAY-- United States Government

Labor Day, the first Monday in September, is a creation of the labor movement
and is dedicated to
the social and economic achievements of American workers. It constitutes a
yearly national tribute
to the contributions workers have made to the strength, prosperity and
well-being of our country.

There is more info at this site including founder info, legislation, and US
nation-wide
holiday status.    Hope this sates your curiousity.
