In the movie Lethal Weapon is a character Leo, played by Joe Pesci, a wise cracking know it all. I got to thinking what if that Leo was a little mouse and presto Joe Pesky is born. I love these kind of personalities in the movies and books but in real life they become a real pain in the back side. But a strong personality is what makes a great cartoon character.
Bugs Bunny is far more entertaining than Mickey Mouse as is Daffy Duck than Porky Pig. About the most memorable cartoon character from Disney over the years has been Donald Duck, though I still can not figure why Donald talks so weird but Daisy talks like a normal person. But I digress.
Leo Pesky is all those irritating co-workers you have ever known, all those irritating brother-in-laws and mother-in-laws all rolled into one funny little fur ball. Leo always has a new idea to become rich and famous like Kramer from the Jerry Seinfeld show.
Look for him from time to time in the future years.
