IMAO Time Machine: Frank Slogan Ideas

This is from 10 years ago this week. — The Editors


So, SarahK and I started watchin Mad Men on DVD, and I was thinking I would be great at coming up for slogans for stuff (I assume that’s what they do in the show; I haven’t really been paying attention since there isn’t any shooting or explosions). Anyway, here are my first attempts, free of charge to the companies if they want to use them:
