Colin McDonald had a glove stolen. Seriously. (H/T: correspondent Tim.) Arthur Staple tracked McDonald down for comment.
And I was very much ambivalent about the “Mad Men” finale Sunday night — depending on your interpretation of the ending, I may still be — but that ending, man, turned my whole feeling around. Honestly, I don’t care how you interpret it. (One person’s cynicism is another’s optimism, to me, in this case.) I loved that moment and the many ways you can think about it. Like David Chase with the end of “The Sopranos,” I almost don’t want to know what Matthew Weiner “meant” there. It’s more fun going back and forth through the interpretations.
Also, I kind of seriously want a Coke.
