Hollywood Writers Strike Update

I have to tell you, every time I hear about the impending Hollywood writers strike, my eyes start glossing over. I can’t decide whose side I’m on, or if I’m even on anyone’s side. And from the sounds of this L.A. Times article, everyone is freaking out about the strike, set to go into affect [...]

Who knew the 59th Annual Emmy Awards was behind held last night? I didn’t, until one of the announcers plugged the show during a football game on FOX. Go figure. So I stayed around to watch the thing, then I found out that guy from American Idol was hosting it, and then they started to [...]
