Dogs were out in full force today.

Drum%20Circle.jpg

This drum circle was broken up shortly after it started. We were told that it could constitute a noise violation. We were also told that if the drummers were marching, it would be allowed. A couple of these guys went from gate to gate starting jams, then fleeing when security approached.

Girls%20on%20Strike.jpg

Kids were out in greater numbers than ever. Apparently, at the Westside private schools, writers' kids were showing up in red shirts to annoy the producers.

Er, moonlightfans.com is under construction.

Some%20Sweet%20Support.jpg

One writer estimated that we're all walking between 4 and 9 miles a day. Unfortunatley, any calories we burn off are quickly negated by the "Sweet" Support that we've been receiving in abundance.

Oh dear God, they have resorted to drum circles! Can dredocks and nag champa be far behind???

Actually, I was thinking Patchouli and hackeysack?

Yeah, all TWO fans of Moonlight!

Thanks for representing the ML fans! The new place to be for all things moonlight is Moonlightline.com, but I think Moonlightfans.com is up and running again. Either site is a great place to hang out and discuss all things Moonlight.

There are a whole lot more Moonlight fans out there than you realize, and the number is growing like you wouldn't believe. Donations have enabled us to go and feed the strikers on a weekly basis (and feed them decent tasty pizza, instead of garbage chain restaurant pizza)

It does my heart proud to know that there are so many dedicated, giving fans out there.

We'll be out there again with more pizza the week after Thanksgiving.

We love the writers!
