October 3, 2013: Way back in 1955, less than three months after opening Disneyland, Walt brought The Mickey Mouse Club to television. Incredibly enough, Captain Kangaroo debuted on the exact same day. Although he didn’t have a dozen perky youngsters hawking his theme club merchandise. It’s also Caramel Custard Day, and do I need to mention that I’ve never eaten one? I can’t handle eggy custards; it’s totally a texture thing. And just to round it out, let’s say that this also encompasses Virus Appreciation Day today — Annette is going to come down with a nasty flu later today, and her computer is loaded with malware.
