And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Ted didn't seem pleased that she made everyone stay and work when she already had a workable idea and he seemed confused by her need to get his approval on that idea. I think she has power, but she doesn't realize it.

That was my reading as well. Peggy is competent, but she's learning. She doesn't know where the boundaries of being in charge are yet.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Okay after reading around the blogosphere, here's the import of the lighter.

Dick Whitman dropped his lighter which accidentally started the fire that killed Don Draper.

He didn't just take Draper's dog tags, but the lighter of the man who he impersonated. We know that because the PFC called him "Lieutenant."

So Don has literally lost his talisman for changing his life, exchanging Dick Whitman for Don Draper.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Going back a ways as I just caught up with this myself:

I'm just catching up on the finale, but just wanted to pop in and say HOLY CRAP about the showdown in the nursery. I had to rewind it twice because it was so awesome, especially Winona's bit with the groin/femoral artery shot and then badass and rage/fear-fueled emptying of her clip.

Continuing the trend of men underestimating women on Justified at their own peril.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Finally watched the Mad Men premiere. Meh. So didn't need to be 2 hours long. Loved seeing my gal Peggy, though!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Thanks, Psych. I thought you were getting complacent, but that final scene, including the Gus bit, was way more sincerity than I was expecting from this show. Nicely done.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Indeed! I kinda forgot that issue was lurking.

Art Crawl!!!

Man, have you guys been watching Southland?

I just caught up this week and first: Ben Sherman - WTF????

And then - Oh no Coop!

Behind on Psych. Did watch Mad Men - you guys had a lot more in depth stuff to say about it. I didn't even recognize Linda Cardinelli!

I wouldn't have either if I didn't know she was in the episode.
