    It doesn't sound like he quit, it sounds like his bandmates put that spin on a relatively innocuous comment in order to force him to quit. #aerosmith

    This news made me so angry. I had tickets to the 9/14 Aerosmith show at the Garden, and then they canceled when Steven Tyler injured himself, and I thought, "OK, that really, really sucks, but I'll catch 'em next time." And now there's no next time. This is why people stop believing in good things, Steven.

    Frankly, it would serve you right if they replaced you with Adam Lambert. #aerosmith

    In reply to Mad Men: The Night of Don's Reckoning
    When Don said "I'll take the kids", I almost fell out laughing. As if Betty gives a shit. She hates those kids. I wonder why Don is so upset about the divorce. They were both miserable. Now he can fuck whoever he wants without all the lying and sneaking. Maybe that's why he wanted to stay married. The excitement of sneaking around made the sex that much better.

    Poor man's Stones anyway.

    Speaking of which, Keef always brushed off Mick's solo projects, saying things like, "He's nothing without me." Come on, Joe! Stick up for your fifty year old riffs. #aerosmith

    The only thing I know about Abu Dhabi is that Nermal is mailed there on a regular basis. I can only imagine an unbearably cute kitten was responsible for this. #aerosmith

    In reply to San Francisco Braces for Gen. Tom Cruise to Move In (And Perhaps Lead Scientology Offensive)
    Why on earth would Tom Cruise be interested in moving to SF? I mean, economically, geographically or culturally . . . what of SF could possibly be of interest to Mr. Cruise?

    I just don't see it. #tomcruise

    I was particularly proud of Peggy in this episode. She's gone from carrying a baby to term without even realizing it to upwardly mobile career girl. And yay for the return of Joan! #madmen

    What did anyone else make of Don's little speech about everything -- includng selling -- being different after Dallas? I wonder how will it change his approach to advertising? Any advertising scholars out there know whether there really was a change in approach, or -- just like 9/11 didn't really mean The End of Irony -- was there no lasting effect? #madmen

    @naugahydeinplainsight: Before this episode I thought everything was pointing to the End of Don (in many ways)--that he had created this perfect little image and life, but as the world crumbled around him he would fall apart (note the several terrified looks on his face in the past two episodes, expressions we hadn't seen from granite Don.) In this episode, though, he seems to be getting it--becoming a little more flexible, conciliatory and prescient. When he looks at the room at the end of the episode, he sees that this is his new family, and seems almost excited about it. Don is, after all, a survivor, maybe he's energized by the opportunity to create something real.
    Television remained in denial in the '60s ("Gilligan's Island" and "The Beverly Hillbillies" are coming soon) and not until '67 and '68, with "The Smothers Brothers" and "Laugh In" did the first cracks begin to appear (and the news began showing more raw footage of Vietnam). But the '60s were true glory years for advertising, which became much more creative (DDB's "Lemon" ad for VW was 1960) and thought provoking rather than just announcing to people what to think. Creatively, this is when the business began to loosen up.

    @naugahydeinplainsight: Don may change a little because of Dallas, but many more closer-to-home things happened to him in one episode that I think Kennedy's death will only minimally affect him. #madmen
