Mad men

The blah life has devolved to a constant stream of TV shows (on DVD) and knitting.  Night after night I watch Mad Men and 30 Rock while knitting.  I’ve finished two blankets (both of which I started long ago), two hats, and a scarf.  I don’t think I’m growing intellectually as a result of this behavior.  I mean sure it’s somewhat educational with Mad Men regarding the era and all of its associated drinking, smoking, and womanizing, but it’s not like taking a math class.

Anyway, the streams crossed for me a few weeks ago when Jon Hamm (Don Draper) showed up on 30 Rock as one of Liz’s boyfriends (short-term of course). This means nothing except that it was odd that I happened to be watching both shows at the same time and one character showed up in the other show.  Wow.

To be fair, here’s a 30 Rock clip from a recent episode.  enjoy.

Don Draper

I’ve started watching Mad Men and have mixed feelings on the series. I’ll reserve this discussion until I’ve finished all I can watch.  This may take some time as I am watching 30 Rock at the same time…

Anywho, to anyone who has watched Mad Men, they know that Don Draper is Mad Men.  So I was searching “Don Draper” and came across this cartoon from The Oatmeal. See below.  But actually, you should only see below if you’ve watched the show.  Otherwise it will make zero sense.
