[This device. Is absolutely. Fantastic. And he is going to do everything in his power to hide his absolute glee at being able to use it.]

I'll get right to the point. My name is Donald Draper, Don to my friends, and I am looking for a job in sales. Or more specifically advertisement.

This would be the part where I offer references, but ending up here-


[And being incredibly out of his depth]

Well. I've got some sample specs and a portfolio and I have skill. And if you happen to be from my time and know Coca Cola or Kodak or Lucky Strike cigarettes then you've probably seen my work. I'd be happy to answer any questions you have. I can either be reached here or I'll be at the museum helping with the posters and advertisements for it.

[The longest pause.]

...Anybody else think this thing is amazing? Or is it just me?

Now those are some big-time vintage names. Not sure you'll have much luck quoting Earth stuff around here though, pal.

Oh sure, I hear that. But this is completely different planet, maybe even a whole 'nother universe. You think about that?

Well, no. I guess I ain't if you're gonna ask outright. You could say me and Earth have got some fraught history.

But even out on the space colonies we've got Coca-Cola, so you must be something. I just think some of the other Moonblessed aren't gonna understand the scope of your skills y'know?

Is it that surprising? No one smokes cigarettes anymore and Coke keeps well for the trip.

Eh, it pounds just the same.

Sorry buddy, but that's the magic of the future: getting in your nicotine without all the lung cancer.
