More Dating


The last time Hollywood writers went on strike, the horror show known as "Reality TV" was born.


Now, TV, ever a wasteland, is now one endless howl of "The Bachelor," (Can someone dare to try to explain this one to me?) and people losing weight and crying.


So, now, the writers are poised for another strike.


The studios will be laughing all the way to the bank and you and I will be renting more videos and reading more books,


Unfortunately, the writers have more than a legitimate complaint.


Hollywood is all about power (My dick is bigger than your dick, Dick.)


And writers have always been at the bottom of the heap.


The classic Hollywood joke goes like this:


When the head of Warner Bros. says to you, "This is the best first draft I've ever read." what he really means is, "You'll never work in this town again."
