Note to readers: Ya know, I’m feeling lazy, and like I should just start my Labor Day early, so here’s a blast from the past from 2020.
Tomorrow is Labor Day, that day we set aside to honor workers. I’ll be off, but probably will be working on my column. Others will also be working, but because they’re far more essential than I am: police, firefighters, medical personnel and others.
Some furry workers will be working, but it may be mostly on our nerves. It’s not their fault you decided to grill today. The rest of the time they work so hard, so let them have this, OK? And a little piece of that chicken.
