"So, they chose books."

I only now got around to seeing this "Saturday Night Live" sketch about Barnes & Noble:



I used to have a picture of Jon Hamm (right) as Don Draper reading in his office to illustrate a post like this, but I must have deleted it. Not that I'd consider the minutes I just spent looking for it again on Google Image Search wasted, exactly. What can I say? The man has good taste in literature.

Funny sketch, and particularly true of the Union Square location.

One of my co-workers had Jon Hamm as her high school english and drama teacher, before he decided to move back to L.A. and give acting one last shot. My guess is that the girls were easily distracted in that class, but always did their homework and showed up on time. And possibly wearing makeup.
