Video Labor Day Video Break

Posted by Sarah Mirk on Mon, Sep 5, 2011 at 10:24 AM

These three videos have nothing in common except that they're all interesting and they're all a little too long to watch during a workday. GOOD THING IT'S STILL THE WEEKEND. woop woop.

1) What's it like being gay in rural America? A 12-minute documentary about gay pride in Montana.

2) The ever-charismatic East Portland State Representative Jefferson Smith waxing on for 17 minutes about reforming democracy.

3) Dance break! I feel like I don't understand much of what's going on in this video about a girl and her bicycle, but I like her style.

You do realize that on a Monday holiday most people spent that 40 minutes in foreplay.

Nice remake of Queen - Bicycle Race. That looks like a nice town and you should move there.

So, Labor Day videos about everything but an appreciation of Labor.
Nice.

@frankie: Perhaps, like me, she doesn't accept the substitution of a Monday in September for the real "labor day," International Workers' Day, the First of May.

Better weather in September though, right?

The paving stones are looser in the spring.
