Mad about mid-century
I am a complete "Mad Men" junkie and often scratch my head wondering where the line falls between fact and fiction with the accounts that Sterling Cooper's finest and most stylish are working on. If you're a MM junkie like I am, try the web site Foot Notes of Mad Men for some answers (thanks for the tip, Entertainment Weekly).
For example, was there really a diet soda called Patio?

And, which influential New York interior designer of the 1950s and 1960s inspired the look of the show, in addition to the name of the main character?

Well, I'm not going to tell you, lazy bones. Head over to the web site and read for yourself!
