What else are they missing from the period? What say you?
]]>I was browsing thru the character profiles and noted this one for Sal's:
An ambitious employee, he has expressed an interest in starting his own firm, where art would be the driving force behind the copy.
Food for thought. Wouldn't that be an interesting story arc for Season 4~
]]>Johnny D. is an attractive man, sure....but, let's face it, not even in the same galaxy as Jon Hamm.
Sigh....maybe next year....
]]>Her bizarre death near the yacht Splendour on a chilly November evening in 1981 off Catalina Island has remained shrouded in mystery.
Recent revelations, including admissions by Ms. Wood's husband, have shown that the initial investigation was seriously flawed and evidence ignored.

I am open to any challenges here.
]]>Or: "I'm the Queen of France" starring, Bettes! Our number one whacko housewife/divorcee snaps completely in the farcical adventure through Europe, that has Bettes telling everyone she's Eleanor of Acquitaine! Laughs ensue as Bettes meets another psycho who believes he's Henry II!!! Herbert Marshall as the ersatz Henry II. Anne B. Davis as Bettes chambermaid.
Or, "Rumsen, P.I." -- Failed ad exec Fred Rumsen begins anew as a private Dick in Guadalajara during the Revolution. It's laughs galore as a zany group of misfits try to help Rumsen solve crimes! Zazu Pitts, Phil Silvers, James Gleason, and Monty Woolley, as the Chief Inspector.
]]>Henry Francis is exactly the kind of guy Don Draper is, just minus the fake name and identity.
Think about it. He is the kind of man who will hit on a heavily pregnant woman carrying ANOTHER MAN'S child and have no compunction about doing this. Also, he doesn't KNOW Betty at all. Not a bit. He is merely doing the same things Don did with Suzanne (and all the rest) which is to tell her exactly what SHE WANTS to hear. He is an expert and he knows what she wants to hear.
She says, "He's been lying to me for years..." And Henry responds, "I wish I could take you to the movies..what's your favorite movie?"
This is just like Don asking Suzanne to come away with him and saying, "I'll clear my schedule...." and they are ON THEIR WAY when Don gets caught - FINALLY!!
See, but Henry Francis pulls out the BIG GUNS. He says the MAGIC WORDS to Betty (that EVERY woman wants to hear) "I want to MARRY you."
That's it - game over - Betty's a goner.
What makes Betty think Henry is such an upstanding guy. He's divorced. Does she even know WHY he is divorced? I'm sure it's not because he such a great guy, or he would still be married.
Henry Francis is just another Don Draper, except in the sleazy world of politics instead of advertising.
]]>Anyone have any info?
]]>Pointy bras make a comeback as sales of 'Marilyn Monroe' underwear enjoy an uplift
"Sales of the 1950's pin-up girl 'pointy bust' bra made famous by Jane Russell and Marilyn Monroe are seeing a remarkable uplift."
"The conical shape bras are enjoying a renaissance"
"The look set a trend that was a huge success in the 1950s and has been revived in subsequent generations,"
"John Lewis has seen a huge surge in sales of the bras, which it argues is indicative of a desire to celebrate women's curves that has followed previous periods of economic turmoil.
It represents a dramatic shift away from stick thin models with boyish figures who have dominated catwalks for a generation to the more voluptuous look of a Dita Von Teese.
The store claims the resurgence of the emphasis on curves even provides evidence that the worst of the recession is over and there are more optimistic times to come."
