Once in a while it occurs to me that Chris Mathews isn’t sure if he is a democrat or a republican. He needs to make up his mind!

LOL LOL Wizard! We are one and the same. The site alphabetizes authors and because I kept forgetting to select my name it would publish everything I wrote under Beach Bum! I would then have to go back and correct it, so I just changed my name so it would be higher in the alphabet:-)
Why is there a “MadMike” and then there is a “AMadMike1” ???? I’m not sure the world is ready for two MadMikes. And what if they keep multiplying?
I recommend Mad Men to all. It’s an extremely sophisticated show, and is photographed and designed so well it almost hurts your eyes. Good cast, good writing.
Get the first season DVD. It’s a pretty naked look at America (through the eyes of the slick craven masters of Madison avenue) in the years and moments before the the cultural revolution of the 1960s: after the invention of the pill, but before Hippies and before the year men stopped wearing hats. The show runner and creators started on the Sopranos, so it has that very post-Kubrick feel in as far as it presents situations from a point of “objective remove” or remoteness, (as in when Tony Soprano would say something racist, factually incorrect etc. and there was no character in the story to challenge it, leaving the reconciliation of “truth and fact” in the audience’s mind to resolve.

I keep hearing raves about Mad Men, but I can’t determine what it is about.
I never got into that. I don’t think I gave it enough time…
It’s Jon Hamm as Don Draper, a character in the Mad Men TV series.
Stimpson you make a great point. I agree with the superficiality thing. BTW is that your picture or is that someone I am supposed to recognize as a famous movie star:-) 🙂
BTW, FD, is your avatar a take on a Madness album cover (One Step Beyond …)?
No, FD, you’re life is probably richer for *not* being familiar with Chris Matthews.
Maybe Matthews is one of those guys who likes to think his views are too complex to be categorized. If he really does believe that, he’s wildly deluded. Far from being complex, his thoughts are ofen too superficial to be interesting.
er…..who?
(I am in the Uk you now….I hve no idea who he is…is that a bad thing?)
