A few years ago I was a union member of another union. I’m trying to become part of your as soon as someone buys one of my scripts. I will not sell one until the strike is over. Now as I was writing. We picketed on MLK out in the desert where I worked. We were out there for several hours. We had a blast. Right at the end we all walked the hill to where we worked. I was carrying the flag of the US. What a day it was.

Go, fans!
Scott Bakula mentioned the Writer's Strike in passing at his performances this weekend in DC.

It was like "I had a TV show in 88. Then there was a writers' strike and I did a Broadway show. And now there's a writer's strike"

that's an *incredibly* loose paraphrase, as my brain is mush, but we know he's on the side of the writers. Not sure where his fans are, but *I'm* here.
I've just been gone for 5 days... my email box is as much a mess as my house and half unpacked suitcase.

Go get 'em, guys!
