"New" -- Nowadays I'm more of an art deco fan

Here's a real multiple choice -- 1920s Songbirds
Belle Baker, Margaret Young, Marion Harris, Esther Walker or Jane Green?

1. Belle Baker -- Sweet Little You (1924)
2. Margaret Young -- Hard-Hearted Hannah (1924)
3. Marion Harris -- Poor Little Me (1922)
4. Esther Walker -- I Left My Sugar Standing In The Rain (1927)
5. Jane Green -- If I'd Only Believed In You (1926)

Always had a soft spot for Jane Green.

Delmonico's or Rector's?

Boy. I'm having bad luck with this thread. Either I can't answer the question or I can't ask a question. I can't seem to be able to do both! lol

I have one though.

Recently this has been on my mind. A two-parter.

1) Oswald

or

Mickey Mouse?

2) Although both worked together for many years and developed both of the characters mentioned above:

Walt Disney

or

Ub Iwerks?

I love the cartoon with the dancing skeletons.

What's the difference?

I was trying to find some old photos of the puppets from Sesame Street from the 1960s, but had a hard time finding some good photos or videos. Some of the earlier puppets were down right creepy!

They look somehow tame in these photos though.

And yes, Oscar the grouch was originally orange.

Funny we should be talking about this.

The Muppets finally got their star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame (seems so odd having the characters "detached" from their creator). I don't understand how fictional characters are able to get a star on the Walk of Fame in the first place? [huh]
