STRIKE IS OVER!... for now

Back to Work?
The Transit Workers Union has announced it will return to work, but no timetable has been announced for resumption of service... which is kind of like what it's like every day for people who take the D train.

Back to Work? II
The good news is that transit workers are now going back to work. The bad news is the city's cabs and commuter vans are charging them $3,500 each to get there.

Come Back and Shop
Now that the transit strike is over, Mayor Michael Bloomberg is urging people to come back to New York and do some last-minute Christmas shopping. Bloomberg himself says he's going out right now to buy a gun to shoot Roger Toussaint.
