What's Wrong With ME?  

No, seriously, I want to know.

You see, here I am on line wanting to buy movies. Yeah for the writers' strike being over, but I'm salivating at titles like:

From Wharf Rats to Lords of the Docks: The Life and Times of Harry Bridges

Includes appearances by Elliott Gould and Ed Asner, as well as music by Jackson Browne, Arlo Guthrie, Pete Seeger, Sarah Lee Guthrie and others.

And

Rebuilding San Francisco 1906-1910: The Workers Story
In the weeks following the 1906 Earthquake, thousands of union tradesmen – piledrivers, ironworkers, bricklayers, electricians, plumbers and countless others, worked to rebuild the city of San Francisco.

Or how about Argentina?
The Take

What about Women struggling to organize?

Bread & Roses

Damn, I just don't think I have enough money to make it possible to buy everything that Labor Heritage offers!
