Do you have white on today? Be careful! It’s after Labor Day! What a silly tradition. Where did it come from?
It all started as a fashion tradition back in the 1800s. The idea was that wearing white represented being on vacation. Which, for most people, happened in the summer. With Labor Day being the unofficial end to summer wearing white after that showed that you could afford to get out of the city and vacation even once the summer was over.
This fake ‘rule’ that you shouldn’t wear white after Labor Day was supposed to show that you didn’t have the money to take fall and winter vacations. It also meant that if you had enough money to not work you could wear white because it wouldn’t get dirty
Obviously this outdated tradition is just something we always heard about, but nowadays doesn’t really make sense. Feel free to wear what you want! I have white sneakers on right now!

Here’s an animal rescue story that you don’t hear about every day. We have a lot of deer in the northeast but you usually you see them while driving on The Merritt, 95, or in your backyard… but in the water?!
That’s what this 19-year-old Fairfield prep grad came across recently. Eryk Wenziak works for a Norwalk and Stamford charter boat service. He was on a fishing trip with some others when they came across a struggling deer in the water off the coast of Rye, New York. They drove the boat over to the animal and were able to bring it up on the boat, then back to safety in the woods on the mainland. Thankfully the deer seemed okay.
The whole rescue was caught on video. You watch it along with Eryk’s interview with News 12 here
You might have seen this one trending over the weekend after a McDonald’s manager in Canada did a TV interview.
The interview was about how he won an award for guiding his store through the COVID-19 pandemic and tips and tricks for saving money when ordering. Then it quickly turned to much more interesting convo like what is Grimace?! You know the big purple guy. Is he an animal? A character? A person? Food?
The manager, Brian Bates, said Grimace is actually a taste bud. A fairly large taste bud, but that’s what he is supposed to be. Weird!
Now, there have been conflicting theories over the years that Grimace is actually a big milkshake drop, but I’m going with the taste bud theory. He looks way more like a taste bud to me.
