Hi,
Bunny Bun is the site mascot. He’s a stuffed bunny made in Taiwan who has traveled throughout the world including plastic surgery operations in Peru. Unfortunately he lost an eye in a Montreal washing machine. His stuffed girlfriend is Bunita. His owner is Rory, a sweet gal who pays for his flights and lodging. Her interests include world travel, classic Hollywood films, food, ethnic studies in classic films.
Plastic surgery operations? please elaborate
He lost a lot of fur. Changed fur. Also added stuffing. May have eye operation in the future but for now is coping with one eye.
Mr Bunny Bun could do with some clothes too.
Did you know Paddington Bear was originally from Peru? After he arrived in England, he sold out and stopped using his original Peruvian name.
Now that’s what I call thoroughly Anglicized.
Hopefully Bunny Bun will always stay true to his Taiwanese roots. ; )
Paddington could be multi-ethnic. He could be mixed Native-Spanish-African-Japanese or Chinese. LOL
Lol, uh.. yeah, I suppose that’s a possibility.
The author Michael Bond never mentioned his ‘ethnicity’, just that Pastuso (his original name) was raised by his Aunt, after being orphaned.
So his parents could’ve been an interracial (or mixed-race) couple. xD
Ugh, I accidentally used that gay smiley face again, I meant to just use this “: P”. (lol)
I spent some time looking at your blog……..I love it! You haven’t mentioned Gary Cooper, one of my favorites. Betty Hutton FYI as a little girl, I had Betty Hutton paper dolls ( and not because she was a favorite of mine), does anyone know what paper dolls are?
See you in class
I love Gary Cooper too. I’m surprised I didn’t mention him as a classic crush. He was very handsome. I suppose the Patricia Neal romance dissuaded me from adding him.
Don’t worry though. I haven’t mentioned a lot of my faves like Joan Bennett, Steve Cochran, Merle Oberon, Clara Bow, Cary Grant, or Irene Dunne. There are so many of them and it just depends on what I currently see or my mood, etc.
A lot of the stars I’ve mentioned so far aren’t even my favorites.
I have paper dolls of Nancy Carroll, Constance Bennett, and I think Joan Crawford. I never cut them up. I’ll show them to you.
Hello,
Fantastic site. I would love to repost one of your pieces, please e-mail me when you get a chance and I can send you the details. Keep up the amazing work!
