While I’d come to think of Greg as someone who’s privately awful and publicly accomplished, we’re starting to find out otherwise. There a quickly hushed-over reference to a slip-up at work and both the other wives seem eager to spend some time alone with Joan. Their conversation makes Greg’s promotion to chief resident, and its accompanying ticket out of their small apartment, sound less of a sure thing than Joan has been led to believe. Then there’s this line: “The fact that Greg can get a woman like you makes me feel good about his future, no matter what happens.” And that means…? That he’s not getting the promotion? That she feels better about Greg than she did before thanks to Joan because she spotted the cracked fellow beneath the perfect exterior? It’s clear that Greg’s not sharing a lot of what’s going on at work at home, and that he feels sharing his home, complete with his accordion-playing wife, with his co-workers has become a somewhat necessary measure.

Such an inelegant machine for tedious copying.
‘The Document Company’ is an intellectual idea, but the brand is an emotional promise that you can get people to rally around,” said Barry Hoffman, executive creative director at Young & Rubicam, Xerox’s longtime ad agency. “Now, it’s time to just let the brand speak for itself.”
From a 2004 article about Xerox’s decision to drop the tagline ”The Document Company” from it’s advertising. Instead the ads would feature a bold, red, huge digital-looking X, to signify that it would “lead customers into that digital world.”

Aren’t I the lucky one?

- Bendel’s, Bloomingdale’s, and Gimbels owe me a percentage of the mid-day sweaters bought by junior secretaries at Sterling Cooper.
- That being said, it appears I’ve underestimated the appeal of a plain white blouse.
- The ring is perfect. Definitely the best of all the rings I’ve been offered in the past.
- What kind of ring RS would have gotten… stop thinking!
- Note to self: contact HR, see about the possibility of forcing Fred Rumsen to wear button-fly trousers.
I mean, didn’t you all read what I had to say about 31 being a prime number? And yes, it’s perpetually 1962 in my mind. And will be until season 3.
And let's not forget...
… that 31? That’s a prime number, n’est-ce pas.
