Weaird he is going to be 80 and he hasn't got any gray on his ears. Wonder what his secret is to not turn gray. :LOL:

Originally, Ub Iwerks probably used India ink on Mickey's ears, then the company started using Xerox toner, and finally it's all done on computers now with color #000000 (hex-triplet format).

Happy Birthday, Mickey!

To celebrate I listened to the "Mickey's 50" EP -- from back when they used to celebrate such things.

I'll take a Bugs short over a Mickey any day. But, the mouse was able to be in a short (Plane Crazy) that was released in May of 1928. Even I will admit that starring in a film months before one's "birth" is quite an accomplishment.

A bientot.

Mickey; a Kansas native?

Also, why is it assumed that mice eat cheese? I'd think that just eating cheese would be a bad thing.

When I looked in the fridge in Minnie's House (I think it was Minnie's, not Mickey's) it was full of...cheese.

I like it, Skool. Very nice.
I was going to start a thread for Mickey's 80th, but the OP beat me to it. So I will ask the following question here instead: what does Disney's world famous mascot mean to you?
