Writers' Strike

I hope the writers strike will be resolve soon.I am eager to watch new editions of the Tonight Show by Jay Leno. Just give the writers what is due them.Why don't the stars give a percentage of their enormous earnings and not rely on the producers to cough up all the dough ? After all , the actors/actresses are the ones with least to lose in case the film bombed. Calling Mel Gibson , Tom Cruise and all $ 10-$20 million per picture guys !

Search For Another Big TV !

I visited a Best Buy store one night just to look at the different big screen TVs on display.I found several no name brands.By no name,I mean not a Sony, or a Toshiba and even a Samsung.They are quite cheap.A 40'' something TV selling for a mere $700.It's a good deal and real cheap.It is because the TV is an open item ! It's just right for our bedroom.The problem is do I want to spend that much or add a little sum buy a 50'' plasma or LCD TV as a replacement for my 60'' projection TV now in the basement's family room?I need to think very hard.If I will put the new big screen TV in the basement,I plan to transfer the projection TV in the bedroom.I still love my big screen TV .

Replays ,Reruns And Reality TV.

It is a bad time to watch TV now especially late night TV. The Screenwriters Guild strike which started this week will ' cripple ' the TV and movie industry.The 1st to be affected will be the Tonight Show of Jay Leno and Conan O'Brien's as well.These 2 shows are among my favorites.For sure , Jay can write his monologue materials but I guess he sympathizes with the writers so he won't do that.Jay brought some donuts for them yesteday.My feeling is that the studio , TV and movie producers should spread the wealth. Give the writers their due.In the meantime,it's the 3R's for all the viewers !
