Oswald's return to Disney

     Rich,

     Nope! Honey is Bosko's sweetie.

> Maybe she was nameless... and a cat ta'boot!

     Oswald did often date a girl cat. Her name was Sadie in her  
Disney days. At Lantz, she was later renamed Kitty.
     Oswald also had a rabbit girlfriend named Fanny in the early  
days. Later, in the mid-1930s, Lantz retconned Fanny into Oswald's  
sister.

> How will Oswald's luck compare to that of Gladstone's? ;-)

     The reports of Oswald's luck have been greatly exaggerated. (-:
     I think it's more apt, given the Disney Oswald cartoons, to say  
that Oswald thinks of himself as lucky, not to mention full of charm  
and savoir faire. But in practice, he tends to trip over his feet.

> The name Oswald sounds a bit "off"

     It works for me. It's certainly unusual, but it's also not a  
name you forget easily.

     David
