Am I the only one who ALWAYS thinks the US (or any country, for that matter) looks like a piece of meat?

Strange…

My entire day has been made just seeing that steak shaped like Texas. Seriously. Now I know EXACTLY what I want for my birthday! And it should be grilled over mesquite. Lots of it.

Give me Alaska in proper scale along with an Idaho spud, although IT doesn’t need to look like anything but a ‘tater.

I too carry useless trivia in my back pocket to rain on other peoples’ parades but…come on…labor day? It’s just a day off near the end of summer. No one cares from whence it came or why. If you’re going to pick on something, at least pick on the apathetic nature of Memorial Day or the commercialization of Christmas.

You realize Labour Day was first a Canadian holiday? Nothing particularly American about Labour Day, especially given the general animosity towards Labour and trade unionism in America.
