Today is Mickey Mouse day, according to the list of random holidays. And do you want to know why that is? Because today is Mickey Mouse's birthday. And this year, he is turning 80.
80 years ago today, Steamboat Willie premiered in New York.
As Walt was fond of saying, "It all started with a mouse." Just think of all the things we would have missed out on if Mickey hadn't been a hit his first time out.
As you might have guessed, I love Disney. So I for one am very thankful that Mickey came to be and was so popular.
So here's to you, Mickey, and many more happy years ahead for all of us.
