When I'm sipping whiskey - no, not really.

Shots will give you that delayed smashed effect because it's a lot of alcohol in a small window, but when you're just relishing a highball, as Don appeared to do (and you're the experienced drinker Don is), the delayed drunk just doesn't hit you like that.

I dunno. It's never been an exact science with me.

I did some reading. During this time period, the British income taxes were up to 83% and WERE assessed on those living abroad. Plus an additional 15% for unearned income PLUS capital gains. And Lane would likely have also been responsible for US taxes. No wonder he's going broke.

Poor (but possibly rich) Joan.

Oh, and Bow-chicka-wow-wow.

I'm unsure right now as to whether that was one of the very best episodes of the series or if it was a possible jump-the-shark moment.

So much of that episode is great. The acting is superb. The themes (though not presented subtly at all) are ones that speak to the very core and purpose of the show (it's always been the most feminist drama in TV history). It makes the audience feel absolutely disgusted and disgusting, which is a good thing; it speaks to the power of the episode.

But I'm still undecided as to whether the episode made its characters act out-of-character for the sake of the plot. I need to watch it a couple more times.

If i was voted Student-Council President there would always be pizza for lunch and a new episode of Mad Men every day.

I watched Mad Men for the first time last night. Think I might start from the beginning. I liked it.
