The WGA East has put up some strike rules if both the WGA West and East vote to strike.My favorite is number 7. Don't enter the buildings. lol I don't think that will be hard to do, unless Jay Leno kidnaps you and forces you to write his monologue while Ross the Intern keeps watch. TV is about to go through some desperate times if they do indeed strike. More on that later though.
