I was a little late on the bandwagon when it comes to the whole Mad men phenomenon. But never fear my tasty minions... I am almost caught up. I'm on episode 11 of Season 4. Good shit, man. I'm hooked. I don't think I've ever wanted to wear polyester so much in my entire life. That and I've had a sudden craving for cocktails in the evening comprised of 3 ingredients (because as Peggy says "2 ingredients is an emergency"). Yah... the show's wearing off on me. For those who are thinking I'm just a shallow bean at this point you can rest easy because I also really enjoy the social commentary that the writers are constantly making about the issues of the 60's. From what I've heard from my parents and grandparents they're pretty spot on with the historical recollections. The way people reacted to the death of Kennedy and all the social taboos that they make a point of bringing up(smoking and drinking while pregnant, divorce, reprimanding other people's kids, racism, etc). If you haven't seen it yet... watch it. I don't even have satellite or cable and I'm watching it... what's your excuse?
And now... for your viewing pleasure (and mine)... a few pics of our fave ad men and women:

Joan makes Marilyn Monroe wish she had been a redhead.
Aaah the days when clothes were tailored. Well... maybe your clothes are ;)
That Don Draper... the Mistress likey.
Love Sal! Who doesn't love a sweet gay man in these shows?
I love wearing a corset for fun but I can't imagine having to be in one all day long. Thank goodness that's over!
Nothing like a sharp dressed man! I saw a young guy in a 3-piece the other day downtown and I was in awe. Take notes guys...Hope you've enjoyed=) I know I have!
