    "Mad Men" on AMC (US) - (Spoilers Within)

This season is going to get depressing... And is it just me or is the show getting harder to look at since we...

    We are, we are, we are the mods.

    Figured I would chime in here. I was a "Mod" for a few years some years back. I was really into the suits, scooters and music. I still am really, definitely not die-hard like I used to be. Our crew (me on the far right)

    Okay, all got my girly tie in today. It's silk and it's white and it's dirty as all hell. Anyone with advice please help! There's just a general layer of grime I'd like to remove first before I get on to spot treating.

    Have you ever gotten into a heated argument with a "tailor"?

    The only question a tailor should ask is "How would you like that, sir?" The tailor works for you, not the other way around. Perhaps a folder with production stills of Grant, Bogart, Flynn, etc. will help them understand what you want?
