"They have the public hanging by a thread."
Yes, quite literally, they do. But I wouldn't worry. We're going to have good news tonight. I can just feel it.
I know you.
I know you.

Preaching as Testimony (testify)
Preaching is a witness intended to evoke other forms of witness. Preaching is the activity of the whole church and not of the preacher alone. What challenge does this present to the preacher? What grace does it offer? How is the testimony of a preacher distinct from the other 'testifiers'? How do preacher and people work together to practice testimony? How does the call and response pattern common in African American worship support the preacher in giving testimony? If this is not the pattern in your own community, by what other means do the people support the preacher in giving testimony?

I have no inside knowledge, but I'm hoping that five minutes after today's meeting started both sides realized that the major issues had already been settled and that there was no reason not to get back to work. Of course it would be difficult to justify the past week of missed shows, so it was agreed that no announcement would be made until tomorrow morning. Both sides would then be able to say that they had bargained like mad all night, squeezing each other for every concession possible.
These guys do specialize in theater after all.
Maybe both sides are hanging out in that conference room playing poker, watching "America's Next Top Model" and eating lots of take-out Chinese this very minute.

Um, ok. Well I'm still not sure exactly what that meant, but ok. I guess I'll testify then? Am I being rude or something? Or saying something I'm not supposed to? This is totally off topic, I apoliogize!!

Well, Broadway stagehands are currently on strike because they have been working without a contract for over 3 months, and they might resolve the issue tonight.
Hey, you asked what was going on...

Posted: 11/25/07 at 7:55pmmizzfit, I was agreeing with you. "Testify" to speak the truth and let it be known -- (re: how they have us by a single thread). It's nothing bad. It's very much the truth. Here's hoping for the absolute best and light at the end of this tunnel. *crosses fingers*

I think they are meeting at the Morgan Stanley buidling on water street.
#142re: strage link on playbill.-Strike over?!
Posted: 11/25/07 at 8:04pmAnybody hear anything? Even if the strike ending was an erroneous report, still I heard that things were going well.

Seriously, when in the world can we expect to hear ... ANYTHING!? The suspense is really, really, really getting to me! Nothing but HAPPY thoughts!

I'm just guessing, but....
if there was some sort of an agreement reached tonight, you can bet they would want it to be done in time to make tonight's 11:00 news. That would mean their press conferences would have to be held before the 11:00 news.

So something could MAYBE happen in the next three hours
