I'm sorry, dad. You know I would never have tried to save River's life if I had known there was a dinner party at risk.

Funny story from the picket line...

Today was the big Assistants Picket at Fox. When I first heard about it, I thought, "wouldn't it be nice if we, the writers, brought the assistants lunch that day?" I suggested it to some WGA people and they liked it. We put the word out that people could contact me if they wanted to contribute. My inbox quickly filled with contributions and promises of contributions.

Fast forward to today. I'm out there and I run into one of the writers I worked with on Drive. I thanked him for the generous donation he had made. Then he said, "You know, I read your friend Allyson's book. So when I got the email I had no qualms about donating. I figured, these people know paypal. They know how to do this."

Made me laugh.

Hah! Now how can I use Allyson's reputation to benefit me?

I must mull.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

What a great story!

That is pretty cool!
