What kind of name is OX?

No, not like the animal OX, as in HUG and KISS! How can he hug you with such short arms? OX uses his ears! He´s not a very good listener, but he puts his ears to good use in many other ways! OX is great at magic, and his best trick is turning your stuff into his stuff. His best buddy Wedgehead calls that stealing, but OX just wants to borrow things from you for a few hundred years. He promises to put everything back when he´s done. What he wants to steal most are kisses, whether they´re in the chocolate variety or just plain, and he promises to be your friend if you would lend him a hand, or an ear...or like Two Dollars!
