The strike dominated the conversation at Thanksgiving dinner in Central Washington.
You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport. Yet by far the most troublesome. Does that seem right to you?

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
“Variety and The Reporter stink. We get our news from Nikki Finke,” Mr. Wrubel chanted
Heh.
She was fired from The Post in 2002 after writing negative articles about Disney; she sued the newspaper’s parent News Corporation and settled for an undisclosed amount.
Good on her.

"Reasonableness Ruled the Day":
"It was very productive, very level-headed, and it seemed as though the producers came ready to bargain," an insider told me tonight. "Reasonableness ruled the day."
In fact, the AMPTP reps for the studios and networks showed up to the negotiating session with what was described to me as "a very comprehensive proposal which laid out to all the entire roadmap to the deal. Over the course of the session, the producers addressed every single issue, and the writers listened and kept getting up to caucus."
It looks like the talks will continue over the week. This is good!
(Although, who the hell says things like "Reasonableness ruled the day"??)

Good to hear. Hopefully they hold up delivering the 300,000 pencils for the moment.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Tuesday: Horror Writers to Exorcise Evil Spirits at Warner Brothers Lot If at approximately 12:10pm tomorrow, Nick Counter reverts to his true form (a writhing pile of worms), well, he was warned. -JA
We, the horror writers of the WGA, don't necessarily believe that the AMPTP is evil. Rather, we believe they've been invaded by evil spirits whose devilish agenda is the destruction of our Guild. For this reason we have decided to conduct this exorcism for the mutual benefit of this industry. We may be dark souls, but we do believe that good eventually triumphs over evil.
We encourage our brothers and sisters in horror to join our procession by emailing Jace Anderson at creepymofo [at] roadrunner [dot] com or Scott Kosar at scottkosar [at] mac [dot] com. And, of course, we welcome ALL writers to come and support our fight at Warners Gate 4, Tuesday at noon.
ION, even though crappy reviews of my book on Amazon make me feel terrible, I swear I will never do this: [link]
Ugh. Seriously. Just, ugh.

That's how I feel when reading the TWoP strike thread. Okay, that's not completely true. I want to bash their heads in with a brick.

Back from the lines. Today, we were all up on Pico so I got to march with Super Awesome Secret Service Agent Aaron Pierce.
