So here we are, as everyone       
expected, two limousines
hurtling at one another, 100      
miles per hour and no one's foot  
even near the brake.              

It started sort of like this a    
few months ago,except we were
all laughing. The "labor"
dispute it's actually an
insult to anyone who works for
a living to call this a labor

players was like two limousines   
crashing into one another.
