linklings, international labor day edition

I’ve been on the road for the past few days on family business, so my link roundup for the weekend will be briefer than usual.  It was interesting spending 5 hours solo driving with Little Buddy in the backseat, since we left Bubelah and Pumpkin at home.  Kids seem to change personalities on long road trips – in his case, becoming quiet, contemplative and drowsy (as opposed to loud, attention-deprived and sleepless like his father).

A few good links for weekend reading follow.  I’m afraid I’m just too worn out after getting home late Friday to add my usual commentary, but check them out:
