Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Mr. Simon transcends cable. I'm not surprised he came up in Natter.

He would like that, ita. Probably a bit too much. (although I was a little shocked to read some "Aw, shucks," or, you know, what passes for "Aw, shucks," in the City that Bleeds, from him this morning...that's not usually how he rolls. To put it mildly.)

me, too. But, I think that he's smarter than to have sex with her, I think it just symbolized him moving on.
I'm curious - were pregnant women in the 60's warned against gaining weight?
well, they sure weren't warning against drinking and smoking. Loved Joan having a cigarette and a bloody mary with Roger.
