Mad Men Barbies: Back When Men Called Women 'Doll,' and Meant It
Oh yes, this exists. Presenting Mad Men Barbies, part of a part of a premium-price collectors' series for adults ($75 a pop!) entitled the Barbie Fashion Model Collection. You'll have to act quick to pick up your own, multi-jointed version of Don, Betty, Roger, and Joan, as there will be 7,000 to 10,000 copies of each doll (sorry, no adult accessories like cigarettes or alcohol). The Don Draper Fingerband Threat Level just got adorably diminutive and diorama-friendly. [NYT]

I can't wait for the YouTube movies made where Don and Roger are dressed in leather gear cruising.
"Robot Chicken" is furiously getting Jager-bombs prepared for their their writers' marathon session.
Weird, I always thought it was the "Don Draper Fingerbang Threat Level," not "Fingerband." But maybe there's a wedding ring double-meaning I'm missing, or some kind of One Man Finger Band euphemism the kids are using these days, or maybe... I just need a life.
... or at least a shout-out for POTW (Proofreader of the Week)? Anybody home?
