A plush “Oswald the Lucky rabbit.”
A few years ago, the Disney Store carried a plush version of Disney’s first animated icon, “Oswald the Lucky Rabbit.” He’s gray, about a foot or so tall, and his ears stick up out of the box. They seem to have disappeared off the face of the earth; even a regular watch for them on ebay has turned up nothing. If anyone knows of anyone who’s selling one, please let me know.

Since we have rolled into the New Year, I’ve made the resolution to try and do something nice with this column. After all, I wouldn’t want people to come to the conclusion that But I Digress is an entity that exists only to destroy.
Unlike some entities I could name—and which I now will.
As always, I know that posting my schedule is not going to stop people from saying, “Where were you?! I never found you!” Yet here I do it anyway.
My table at Artists Alley will be E9, next to J.K. Woodward, so if you ever wanted your “Fallen Angel” books signed, now’s the time. If I’m not there, then I am at:
Friday
1:30-2:30 – Marvel Booth Signing
3:30-4:30 – X-Men Panel
5:00-6:00 – Signing with Claudio Sanchez, Booth 2575

Saturday
3:00-4:00 – Signing with Claudio Sanchez, Booth 2575

Here we are at year’s end, and it’s time for the installation of a new feature in But I Digress.
In keeping with the new nostalgic feeling for the 1970s (a thoroughly vile notion if ever I heard one; I mean, it was bad enough having to suffer through disco the first time. One is put in mind of Woody Allen’s line of, “Is there such thing as reincarnation? I hope not. Can you imagine having to sit through Ice Capades again?” But I Digress…) I am proud to introduce the Most Awards.
What is it about me? Why do the women in my life keep taking in cats?

After three-and-a-half years of writing But I Digress, which is (aside from Don and Maggie’s editorials and Cat Yronwode’s recently discontinued paid ad on page nine) the longest-running uninterrupted opinion column in CBG, it has come to my attention that there are some folks out there (fans and professionals) who don’t have a clue as to what an opinion column is.
But I Digress is forum for my opinions.
Not Marvel’s or DC’s or Image’s or Malibu’s or Dan Quayle’s or Bill Clinton’s. Not Don and Maggie’s or Rush Limbaugh’s or Howard Stern’s.
Just mine.
