Mad about Mad Men

A few years after everyone has been telling me I need to be watching AMC's Mad Men, I finally get it. I Tivo'd all of season two last week during an AMC marathon of the show. And then after not being able to find season one at any local video store, bought the first season via Itunes.

The verdict is - I'm loving it! It's so retro and cool. Not to mention well written. And Jon Hamm, as Don Draper, is just so freakin' smooth and suave I can't even stand it. The fashions on most of the women (especially that of curvy office manager/vixen Joan), are just so fun.

And yes, I know season three just started yesterday, but don't tell me about it (puts fingers in ears), because I'm only on episode two of season two.

By the way, the picture is how I'd envision myself in that smooth 60s world. Try it yourself at madmenyourself.com. It's swell!
