Mad Men

The return of this popular period TV show reminded me of a story I heard on Madison Avenue some years ago. This particular ad agency handled a prominent Japanese automobile manufacturer. They called a hurried staff meeting one Friday afternoon - it seemed the client was coming out with a new model and they wanted suggestions on a new name - but they wanted the response by the following Monday morning. Then a creative type frantically yelled out "dat soon?" But I'm partial to Honda myself.
