The first Monday in September. Made to honor the working men and women in the United States, though mainly known for cookouts, parades, days off from work and school (which is usually just beginning) and being the official last day of summer (while the last day is technically Sept. 20, almost every summer related activity shuts down after Labor Day).
Me and my girlfriend had a killer Labor Day weekend. Now I'm depressed knowing I have to go back to work and that Autumn is right around the corner.

An intresting piece of art in Berwyn, Illinois (a suburb of Chicago). Completed in 1989, it featured 8 cars on a giant metal stake with a purple Volkswagon Beetle on the top. The sculpture gained national attention when it was featured in the 1992 film Wayne's World.
In 2007 the stripmall/plaza where the Spindle was located decided to tear it down to build a new Walgreen's pharmacy (replacing the already existing one due to the fact it lacked a drive-thru), even though there were other multiple locations to put it (they could've just simply made one out of the store's abandoned liqour section). Protests kept the demolition of it at bay for months until May 2, 2008 when the sculpture came down. The Walgreen's was completed in 2009, upsetting many residents because the Walgreen's final location did not enroach where the Spindle once stood.

I was able to get a picture of the spindle before it was destroyed because this nation is just too obese and can't walk a few yards to pick up there medicine.

A Chicago based record label formed in 1978, famous for signing early Industrial music acts including, but not limited to Ministry, KMFDM, and My life with the thrill kill kult. Very little remains of the original label after it went Bankrupt in 1992 and was purchased by TVT records, although a store with connections to the original Chicago label still operates in Denver.

A bullshit organization who claims to be working to protect the sanctity of marriage but in reality all they do is work to make sure LGBT people are denied all possible rights and continue to be treated as second-class citizens, and go after any and all groups/individuals/companies who voice support for gay rights/marriage to try and convert them to their bullshit beliefs.
The National Organization for Marriage should really rename themselves the National Organization for Fascism, because really that's what they're trying to accomplish.

An awesome Punk Rock/Power Pop act that met with a tragic end. Formed in Portland in 2001 by Adam Cox, Matt Fitzgerald, Terry Six, and Jeremy Cage. They released their debut album "Guitar Romantic" in April 2003 but sadly Cox, Fitzgerald, and Cage were killed in a car wreck three months later.
Long live The Exploding Hearts.

A bar specifically made for bikers. Usually found along the side of a highway in small towns or in the middle of nowhere. Common activities include drinking (obviously), playing of billiards and/or darts, music (either recorded or live), sitting around and talking, and looking at each other's motorcycles.
Biker bars have a reputation for being rough places. Do not enter one if you are an outsider; if need to enter one arises however, make sure you are dressed tough, not looking dorky, and always watch what you say.
