Without UB Iwerks there would be no Mickey Mouse. Remember the Halloween show with the skeleton dance? He would not exist either. An article about UB Iwerks will be posted on my blog http://lscottblog.posterous.com/ by the weekend.

Remember the rubber band that kept the mask in place would rip your hair and the eye slots were crudely ripped out so they would be jagged and poke your eyes?

Sometimes friendships broke barriers.

Thanks for being patient.

 Every time I search for pictures of Christmas this picture always shows up. It actually has shown up in many different ways for me over the years. When I worked at a company in Uniontown I saw this picture on one of their newsletters and I saw it in an old magazine at my grandmas house when I was a kid. I associate a few things like this with Christmas such as going to grandmas Christmas Eve and on the way watching the christmas lights of the houses that we pass twinkle in the dark, the warm heater from our car warming us on our way, the christmas music from WMBS on the radio, and when we finally arrive, the smells of the house, the family conversation, and most of all..looking forward to another Christmas next year. 

Next year I will have a more set schedule to do the things I enjoy but never get to do like this site. I promise that next year when I return from my trip there will be a new and improved site to enjoy.

 MERRY CHRISTMAS and HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE !!
