STRIKE UPDATE

The Bay Ridge Blogger has the latest poop on the meat packer's strike.

Meanwhile, I'll post another childish picture about fudge and packers.

MEAT PACKERS

The Meat Packers are on strike at Foodtown. They want a better contract. I don't know the details. Maybe they're asking for a better title. One that doesn't make you titter when you say it. Hopefully they'll be more successful in that department than the good men and women who pack fudge.

FOODTOWN ON STRIKE

So I go down to the Foodtown on 92nd and 3rd today and am shocked to discover some workers outside on a picket line. What gives? I can't find anything about it in the news. I can't go anywhere: the WGA is on strike so no TV or Film writing for me right now; the Broadway Stage Hands are on strike so no Broadway; and now Foodtown!? I'm a big believer in unions and don't like to cross any picket line. I'm not sure yet what I'll do. Right now I've gone to the Starbucks across the street to mull it over.
