One's from NYC, one's from Hollywood, they are both funny and very informative, right from the heart.

FIRST BIG EXCLUSIVE!!!!!!
This information was leaked to us by someone directly involved in the negotiations between the DGA and the AMPTP.
Many hours were spent Saturday and Sunday at an undisclosed location in Encino, CA discussing/arguing DVD formulas. The conversations from what we were told became quite heated at times. After almost 50 hours at the table, the only thing both sides could agree on was "Them DVDs is hard to open!"
This could be a long strike.
