What no thumbs?

Using his nose Oscar pushed the large flat box out from its hiding place under the bed in the spare room (nobody would ever expect it to be there)he pulled out lots of interesting items;
 wigs, beards and mustaches, glasses and many different kinds of clothes. "What should I wear for my first adventure?" Oscar thought aloud. He grabbed a few things and began to pull them on. It was very difficult at first not having those useful thumbs to help. He managed to get dressed and then went to take a quick peek at himself in the large mirror in Mom's bathroom. Perfect! "No wait. Just one more thing." He quickly grabbed one of Dad's ties and put it on. "Now its perfect." He shuffled into the living room (walking with pants on was proving to be a little difficult) and picked up the phone to call a cab. "Oh no. How am I going to dial...with my paws!" He began to pace back and forth trying to decide what to do and was just about it tears when he said "AHA!". He ran into the kitchen and grabbed a pencil with his mouth out of the junk drawer and ran back to the phone. With the pencil carefully placed in his mouth he quickly dialed the cab. Then he went outside to wait.
