On Sex Offender Week: Performing Don Draper
You have a point. I don't think you can adapt mid-century modern clothes and get shaved in a barbershop and look like anything but a slightly less dorky RenFest enthusiast. You have to adapt the sophistication and glamour of your current period.

On Sex Offender Week: Performing Don Draper
It's the coats and hats. They give everything the air of glamour. Even the photo that you used for the artwork depicts Hamm in a classic trilby despite the fact that most of the times that hats appear on the show is when he is handing them to his secretary. Imagine Bogart in the closing scene of "Casablanca" without his hat and trench coat. Actually don't It hurts.
For all of the horrible health implications, smoking and drinking scotch all day is pretty stylish as well. The problem is that even if you have a chance of looking like Don Draper, which most of us don't, the booze and tobacco is not the training regimen that you're going to need to follow.

On The "TV Event" As Bipartisanship, or, How the Super Bowl Helps Kill Health Care Reform
Democrats seemed to enjoy the cover that College Football brought when they were having all those "unusual" Saturday congressional votes that seemed to be coming week after week. When you have a vote on a Saturday, you have roughly 48 hours before the world starts to pay attention and the financial markets start to react to their misguided machinations.
This is my first time posting here, so I will be polite and keep it short.
