Shards of glass keep falling on my head ... not as snappy as raindrops

Has anyone else noticed (and been totally freaked out and alarmed by) the graphic for freezing rain on the beloved Weather Network? They might as well have smeared these "raindrops" with blood because no one is getting away alive from this nasty precipitation.
I'm only sayin'.

Love on the picket line

LAist has been posting these Youtube clips from the writer's that are on strike.
It really is fantastic how these creative folks just can't seem to stop being creative. Like, seriously...whereas some people would just sit at home on their couches eating Cheezies these guys are making music videos and doing stand-up on the fly.
I love it. And it'll be the only thing keeping me going until The Office comes out of reruns.
