In just two days we can wish a very happy birthday to everyone’s favorite television ad executive, Don Draper — or at least the talented actor that plays AMC’s handsome boozer, Jon Hamm. While we wait to catch up with Mad Men during season five, which premieres on March 25, we thought we’d host a little party to celebrate the passing of Hamm’s 40th year. We imagine that the dapper Don would celebrate his own birthday by nursing an Old Fashioned in the wee hours of the morning, but instead of joining him we’re content to let the Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce partner have all the fun. (He still has a lot of suburban malaise to work through.) Instead, we’re taking a look at 40 of Don Draper’s best lines from the television series — quotes that impart a special brand of wisdom that only the deeply flawed and utterly charming bastard can deliver. Read on to relive your favorite Don Draper quips, and tell us which ones we missed in the comments below. … Read More

How Would Don Draper Pitch the New Facebook Timeline?
You’re amongst friends, so it’s OK to admit that you cried like a baby during Mad Men’s episode The Wheel, where Don Draper pitches a serious tearjerker of a campaign to Kodak. The whole episode is full of existential drama, but someone made it smile-worthy. Eric Leist pondered the new Facebook changes and compared them to what made Kodak’s Carousel popular. “Reminiscing is a social activity. It always has been and now Facebook is bringing that activity online,” he writes. Hit the video to find out what Don has to say about the new Facebook timeline. … Read More

Christmas in July: Our Favorite Mad Men-Related Swag
We’ll admit it. Our excitement for the Season 4 premiere of Mad Men has been a little out of control of late. It’s almost reminiscent of the times when we would anxiously wait for weeks in advance of Christmas.
