What Do You Think About the Writer Strike?
I am just wondering what you guys think about the writer strike? If you have no idea what im talking about here is what is going on. Basically the writers of tv shows want more money because of the new media out there. They don't get paid extra for dvd sales and shows downloaded on the web or mobile phone. So this means all the shows still filming are at a hault because there are no more new scripts.

How do you think I got this job? Hey, ambassador could mean many things. If you’re going to lie on a resume you may as well make it a doozie. Why mess around with small stuff? Tell them you were in the secret service. If they ask any questions, all you have to say is, “It’s a secret.” If they insist, just say, “I’ll tell you, but then I’ll have to kill you.”
Actually, the easiest thing to do is to just use someone else’s resume. Including their name. You’ll have to change the phone number so the person doing the hiring calls you, and not the person whose resume you swiped. Of course, make sure that the resume you steal doesn't belong to the person that’s hiring you. "Hey, we both have the same name." "What do you know? We both have the same career goals and special skills including synchronized swimming and stage combat." "Hey, this is my resume!"

I agree with the writers!
Hopefully the studios will agree with them soon and give them what they want so we can get normal TV back! I hate reality. [ok, Amazing Race and Survivor is OK but nothing else]

I hate anything reality tv, to me it's garbage. A man named Groucho once said and I quote; "I find television
very educational, every time someone turns it on, I go into the other room and read a book." Now I love good tv, but there's other entertainment than the idiot box
