Aww. Mickey Mouse is 75 today! Sure, you could talk about corporate logos or commercialism when it comes to Mickey, but generation after generation wouldn't have loved him if there wasn't something special about that mouse.


"All we ever intended for him, or expected of him, was that he should continue to make people everywhere chuckle with him and at him. We didn't burden him with any social symbolism, we made him no mouthpiece for frustrations or harsh satire. Mickey was simply a little personality assigned to the purposes of laughter." ~ Walt Disney

Whee! I stopped at Disneyland on my way to work today to shop and they're having a big celebration for his birthday. I got a button when I walked in and they were having a birthday party for him at noon. Unfortunately, I had to leave before that in order to get to work on time.

But I got my Pooh jacket!!!!!!

Hooray for the Pooh jacket! And it would have been so fun to go to Disneyland today. I bet a lot of people went there today.
