EAT AT ART'S

My friend Harold Ginsburg is stressed out that his family's business, Art's Deli, will take a big hit if there's a writer's strike. As many in Hollywood know, Art's has long been the food of choice for creative brainstorming sessions and power meetings.

I'm a television writer who is not allowed into the Writer's Guild because I write cable documentary programming that is bizarrely grouped with the reality genre (and those who craft reality shows are also more than deserving of guild status). I call on all non-union writers who stand to score some extra dough as a result of the strike to carry on this fine tradition -- grab a corned beef sandwich from Art's.
