In the ways you describe it, you're right about the "no-happy-ending". But 
what about a flashback? A story about the circumstances (that MUST be at 
least one typo!) around HD&L's birth? I also imagine this story can be used 
to show your theory about Mr. Duck being Daisy's brother. I also imagine 
that in a story like this, it would be a good thing to let Mr. Duck and 
Della visit Donald in Duckburg, bringing HIS sister Daisy, which there meets 
Donald (or even funnier; Gladstone), falls in love and moves to Duckburg. 
Just a thought.



On Friday, I had my final exam in high school. The subject was religion and 
ethics, and in my answer I mentioned the ten avatars. I had some stuff on 
them from a school book, but mainly I took the information from the story 
"The Ten Avatars". This, among other things, gave me a 6, which is the best 
"karakter" (sorry, forgot the English word) in Norway. So Thank You, Don 
Rosa, you have now also in a not-comic-form made my life better, as this 
helped on my overall "karakter". (I have to do something about my English 
one day)



I know nothing about Kentucky. I've never been there, I don't know any 
kentuckians personally, so my Kentucky knowledge equals a circular number 
once invented in India a long time ago. All that I said about Kentucky was 
fetched from what Don Rosa and Dan Shane said earlier on the list. Anyway, 
that Kentucky thing was not a big thing in that mail. My entire point about 
bringing in Kentucky was to say that I didn't think Duckburg at all looks 
like Kentucky in the Kentucky picture Don Rosa used to defend that Della 
could have been very, very young getting HD&L, using Kentucky as his 
example. I hope I didn't take the wrong words out of your mouth now, Don! 
(anyhow, I DID understand that the cousin-thing was a joke.)
