Number 3: Labor Day (And Run-On Sentences)

So if you don't have a job what do you do on Labor Day?

I guess you could just sit around and watch meteorologists guess about which way hurricanes will go and try to figure out how a 6 foot wall is supposed to hold out the ocean and how Anderson Cooper is managing to stay standing in that wind and then you could watch the people on tv, who tell us all what to think, and learn about VP candidates and their pregnant daughters all while the little ticker on the bottom of the screen is casually telling you the number of deaths in Iraq and Afghanistan as if it's some sort of sports statistic.

Sad

But if Brandt is back in town you could go to Moe's with the guys and be blown away by how expensive a cup of queso is and on the way home fortune might smile on you and you could end up with an entire street sign, pole and all, in your house and after a shower you could get free chicken strips at Chick-fil-A just for wearing an Auburn t-shirt and bump into friends at wal-mart and spend the rest of the evening with your beautiful girlfriend.

Happy

ps- did you know, on the CNN ticker, they tell you how many days are left in the year. Really though, right now it says "There are 120 days left in the year". That is on the ticker? Really? I just can't find a reason why I need to know that as opposed to just the date or time or anything else really. Come on.
