Or if you do, put 'em in boxes, if possible. Just a request, I know not likely anyone else is as far behind as I am.

Great post; I find most of the MM commentary here a little glib and kneejerk, so thanks for such a thoughtful post.

I don’t think anyone denies that Jon Hamm is very good looking. But he’s such a good actor, he makes it believable that Don Draper isn’t always so attractive these days. Half the time he’s a sweaty mess who looks like he reeks of booze.
