It’s called the Green Box, and it’s billed as the world’s first environmentally-friendly pizza box.

After three seasons, “Mad Men,” the television series about advertising in the 1960s, has attained a level of popular-culture cachet

Mattel plans to bring out versions of Barbie and Ken styled after four “Mad Men” characters. The characters to become dolls are Don Draper, the show’s leading man; his wife, Betty; his colleague at the Sterling Cooper agency, Roger Sterling; and Joan Holloway, the agency’s office manager who was Roger’s mistress.

For the sake of the Barbie image, her immersion in the “Mad Men” era will go only so far: The dolls come with period accessories like hats, overcoats, pearls and padded undergarments, but no cigarettes, ashtrays, martini glasses or cocktail shakers.

Ack!  A part of Seattle St. Patrick’s Day history is missing!!  

The 150-year-old Irish club is missing after it was left inside an SUV.  The traditional Irish club was brought to Seattle by Irish immigrants in 1859 from Ireland.  The shillelagh has been a part of the celebration for 70 years and is believed to be the oldest in the Pacific Northwest.

Anyone with information about the shillelagh is asked to contact the Irish Heritage Club at 206-223-3608.

There is a renegade knitter out there in New Jersey.  An unknown person dubbed The Midnight Knitter by West Cape May residents is covering tree branches and lamp poles with little sweaters under cover of darkness.  Most residents agree that they love the colors popping up.  Cute!
