After I left last night, I was thinking & the scene in the phone room reminded me a little of Mad Men..

Of course, this is a loose analogy, but it's just for fun, so here goes:

Tom as Don, AP Mike as Sterling (white hair), Patton Oswalt as Cooper (shoes off (metaphorically speaking)), & Therese as Joan, holding it all together.

The pledgers were the clients & Tom/Don made the pitch & landed the big account!

and the rest of the cast.. Terre as Betty (since she's a Betty), Spoony as Pete Campbell, and Corrie as Trudy. And Hodgman could be Lane Pryce... since he's the most British.

I want to fit in Laurie from Miami & Harold Blvd & Ramsey & Mo, but I'll let you guys pick who you want to be. I think I'll call dibs on Peggy tho, since she's kinda quirky & I can relate to that.

Feel free to Mad Men yourself if you were there!


the chat =  that bitter comedian from season 2.

Spoony as Pete Campbell.

Now that's just cruel.

It was great meeting you last night too Scratchbomb. Your videos are great and I must say your essay on the night on your web site totally captured the excitement of the evening and totally echoed my feelings. You're right, to say it was a thrill is a vast understatement.
We all were a part of Best Show history and it was an honor to be there.

"Cruel" doesn't begin to describe it!

To be fair, I have done my fair share of blackmailing. Isn't that right, "Emily?"
