bees in phil's yard - 01.sep.2003

Still more bees. In Honour of Labour Day.

Speaking of Labor Day, I was a card carrying member of the ILWU Local 142 (that would be the west coast longshoreman's union) in the 1960's. The way things are going with our capitalistic system ... maybe it is time for the workers to get organized again. If only to ask management "Excuse me, but what the heck have you done that is worth $100,000,000 dollars a year?"

On the other hand worker bees are pretty darn well organized - and where does it get them?
