Let’s do this:
– Let’s celebrate the return of Mad Men with a video of all the ladies Don Draper loved (and left, most of them) last season. (Flavorwire)
– Speaking of great lovers, Smithsonian got to take an up-close and personal look at Casanova’s hand-written memoirs. (Smithsonian)
– In the same vein, Gavin Polone talked to three actual actors about filming sex scenes. Turns out: AWKWARD. (Vulture)
– National Geographic has some truly amazing new footage of the wreck of the Titanic. The article’s really interesting. (National Geographic)
– One of Deadspin’s writers re-took the SAT at 35. Hilarity ensued. (Deadspin)
– The folks at the Atlantic are, hilariously, doing a Battle of the Brackets, in which everyone who is doing a March Madness-esque event is pitted against one another, Fug Madness style. We are a three seed — not too shabby! — and we’re in the Elite Eight this weekend, against our friends at Vulture! HUMAN DRAMA. BROTHER PITTED AGAINST BROTHER. Etc. It’s pretty awesome — so vote! (Atlantic Wire)
– Speaking of brackets, ESPN is doing one to determine the coolest name in this year’s tourny. I’ve got my money on Scoop Jardine. I LOVE that name. He sounds like a 1940s journalist. “Scoop Jardine here with the Daily Planet.” (ESPN)
– Gawker is doing this thing where they cut Ashley Judd’s Missing into 30 seconds. It. Is. Hilarious. (Gawker)
– I am mildly obsessed with how adorable Sandra Bullock’s little boy Louis is. He’s always wearing a hat, too, which is extra cute. (Lainey)
– Refinery29 just wants you to live, damn it! LIVE! So take a look at these clothes that could LIT’RALLY KILL YOU. (Refinery29)
– The best bagels not from New York? THE HORROR! (I personally will eat any bagel anywhere, in the interest of full disclosure). (Time)
– Speaking of, I LOVE Grub Street’s New York Diet, and this one — courtesy of Mickey Boardman of Paper – is a scream. So funny. (Grub Street)
– Intelligent Life magazine — which is somehow related to The Economist — put Cate Blanchett on their cover with no photoshopping at all. This is getting them more press than they would have ever gotten anyway, but also, she looks TREMENDOUS. (Celebitchy)
