I'm talking about just the everyday point-of-reference links. read more

I’ve gone mad for AMC's hit TV show Mad Men. Of course, I love the 60’s vibe. I adore the spot-on clothes - right down to the ladies’ undergarments. I dig the sexist man-dialog, which often makes me laugh out loud at how out-dated it is nearly 50 years later. I love the slow and steady pace of the plots. I love the attention to detail – check out what’s on Don Draper’s desk. I love how the show looks back at the events of the day with a cheeky take and the benefit of already knowing the outcome.
