While the writers are again meeting right now with the studios in order to consider a new proposal to end the ongoing strike here's a funny little music video written and performed Boi and directed and edited by David Schlussel. Enjoy!

I enjoyed that a lot.

Shame on that little ass-kissing Carson Daley!!! I hope when the strike is over, he can't get a professional writer to work for him!

Scabs and strike-breakers are the scum of the earth!

Can we relegate this strike to the back pages for a spell? I'm tired of reading about it. Let's be realistic, even the lowest paid writer for Hollyweird is apt to be better off than the average worker in the "real world". They can always get a real job if they can't struggle by on their inflated salaries or become overpaid actors or even athletes.
I'd like to see a bit more attention devoted to the real problem areas in this country.
