Well, Labor Day has come and gone, and not a whole lot happened. The RNC took the high ground (like in Star Wars Ep. III) and shortened their events for today to just a short joint speech by Mrs. Bush and Mrs. McCain. The cause for this lackluster change in events was Senior Gustav. It would appear that El Presidente has learned from his mistakes, though I think the Katrina Fiasco is far more the Local Government's responsibility.
As I sat on my couch watching Fox News today, I was proud that the RNC would have to be put on hold today, regardless of how bored I was. I'm glad that Bush and the Governors of the affected states were staying behind to make sure everything turned out O.k., and It most certainly did. Only 7 lives were lost (wow, I feel bad about saying only, but I could have been far worse), and there was minimal destruction, felt mostly along the coast.
I guess I can sum up the experiences of the day by saying I got the most out of this year's Labor Day by doing very little, which is supposed to be the point of the day anyways, right? But I do think we should all remember and pray for the men and women who's lives have been affected by the Hurricane. I leave you with one final question: Who decided to name Hurricanes anyways? I bet it was a tree-hugger.
