Nifty gift from mAdBen. He met graphic artist Vahram Muratyan and got me a signed copy of his new book, “Paris Versus New York: A Tally of Two Cities”. It is a clever delightful artistic comparison of la vie quotidienne, daily life in each city. Laugh-out-loud brilliant fun. Motivation to get back to gay Paree.
It was highlighted this weekend in the NYTimes along with a book about women on Madison Avenue during MadMen days. Jane Maas recounts her time at Ogilvy & Mather in the 60’s, in “MadWomen”. A real-life portrait of Peggy Olson.
Before we leap tomorrow, let’s wish a very happy 87th to Betsey! If her mother Birdie could have only waited one more day, she’d still be in her twenties.
Betsey informs me that of course 1925 was not a leap year.

I have been getting many good wishes. It has been a great day. It was sweet of Joe to send a message and I typed out a reply and hope that it showed up on your blog. I feel like a star when I see my name on the blog. Thank you.
