How do we get rid of everyone currently on the LPC?

More Hollywood filler crap. Yay. Welcome to Universal Studios Manhattan.

I should have been one of those extras! I would give Gere a Ha'penny if he needed one.

Is that sign really a binding contract when no signature is required?

If I see myself in a scene in this movie however briefly I'm in it, I expect to be compensated even if it means I'm flagged down by a production assistant and given a dollar.

Will we ever have a mayor who does not sell the city out to the highest bidder at the expense of those of us who actually live here?
