Welcome to Jon Hamm Birthday Week
As loyal Basketcases know, Basket of Kisses has made Jon Hamm Birthday Week an annual event since 2008. We are petitioning Congress to make it a national holiday, but in the meantime, we celebrate here.
Obviously, that means lots of images, starting with our new header. This year, every day of Jon Hamm week will bring two wonderful things:
1. A gratuitous image and
2. One of the many faces of Jon Hamm. Because Jon is so much more than you realize.
Your first gratuitous image is so awesome, so heart-stopping, that I have to put it below the fold:
The hotness! It burns!
Basket of Kisses: The unofficial blog of AMC's Mad Men. Where all the cool kids meet & greet to talk about Don Draper, Janie Bryant, Christina Hendricks, Jon Hamm, Matthew Weiner, & subtexty things.

You just made this San Franciscan spit out her coffee.
Twice!
Deb, I even recognize that shot … it's just pre-eyeroll, yes? When Don's getting more or less dissed by Bobbie Barrett? If I did peg this correctly, one, wow, parenting teens makes one good at the eyeroll pegs, and two, I need to get a life.
A new image every day? Goody! Let's hope those images are not all … like … BEARDY.
(A girl has her tastes.)
Also, this Basketwriter hopes for a screen grab of the goofball Jon Hamm. He shows up in places other than Mad Men, and I think he's pretty good there, too.
Maybe soon there'll be a Christina Hendricks Birthday week … ?

…and how much do I love that you refer to this as "below the fold" ???
Looking forward to the Hammy b-day month. Let the fanning commence.
(wait, did I say b-day MONTH? must be the powers of subliminal suggestion)

just saw A Single Man and instantly recognized Jon's voice on the other end
of a phone call. I think he did it w/out credit. This movie is set in the '60's
too, so it was like Don Draper was calling!

Can we have a Jon Hamm b-day year?
Seriously, though, this b-day week last me through the final's week and into spring break. Nice
