    If Oona is here, can the yo-yos be far behind? And now that it’s almost time for Aunt Fritzi to buy the Trick-or-Treat candy to give out, how about stocking up on lollipops?

    Oona I barely remember. The Yoyos haven’t come back to me yet.

    Hmmm…. These don’t look at all like the Yoyos from “Oona Goosepimple’s Party” (1960). Copyright issues?

    About 30 years before I was born. No wonder I don’t remember them.

    Or vice versa – The 1964 show was based on characters Chas. Addams had been drawing for the New Yorker long before. Mention of the 8-inch uncles brought to mind tiny people as another Addams’ recurring themes, like musicians climbing out of a Muzak box at the end of the work day, or the wife asking her husband, “What’s so strange about seeing a cardinal in the bird feeder?” as he looks out at a tiny man in a long cassock and a distinctive hat.

    Not the prototype for Wednesday, who has been around in the “New Yorker” since 1938.
