Mad Men

I spent the past couple of weeks watching past episodes to get introduced, seduced, and up to date. Now I am hooked with my wife. I am from NYC, now in FL. We are so eager for 10PM on AMC. Mad Men is the best show since six feet under, St. Elsewhere, My So-Called Life, Northern Exposure, Picket Fences, LA Law, and SATC!

It premiered on July 19, 2007 and completed its third season on November 8, 2009.^[2] The production of a fourth season began on April 12, 2010.^[3] Season 4 will premiere on AMC July 25, 2010 at 10/9c.^[4]

<sup>In California 90% of adults on the autism spectrum are unemployed. For the 10% who have found employment they are earning less than $5,000 a year. http://life-with-aspergers.blogspot.com/2010/07/improving-employment-prospects-for_15.html I have been trying to since 1976. I have had 54 jobs. My longest and highest paying job was Convergys 11/21/05 - 2/23/09 between $8 and $10. I am having an extreme difficult job with college. My source of rental income has stopped due to additional unemployment. Happy and relieved that Senate finally Passes Bill To Restore Jobless Benefits. Obama to sign Thursday! Happy to receive this message: "Saw your web site / blog thought it was interesting, clicked on the fb link saw we have much in common - raised on LI now live in FL we both have AS in a redneck state that prides itself in the criminalization of folks rather than train law enforcement."
