On Mad Men's Megan Draper Reads (And Wears) 1966 'Vogue'

This is interesting as I have been looking through the Vogue Archive for the Zou Bisou dress. I maintain that garment is actually the top of a tunic-and-pants ensemble from the late 60s, I know I've seen it somewhere (other than on Barbie--"Lemon Flip"), but I can't find a photo.

On 'Project X': Why Doesn't Hollywood Get Young People?

Generation Jones/New Lost Gen/late boomers etc. had to wait about 12-to-15 years after the fact for the good movie about them (okay, about us). 'Dazed and Confused' came out in 93.

@Tulletilsynet Ah, but do you know what does taste just like old-school baby aspirin? Orange Mint Lifesavers in the cello "peg bag."
