Thoth, LOL From what I've heard, Mike & Andy's self-destructive behavior had nothing on Johnny's. In Morrissey's autobiography, he claims that Johnny collapsed at Moz's mum's house. Mama Moz took Johnny upstairs, and when she came back downstairs, a worried Moz asked how Johnny was. She replied, "Well, he's OK, but he owes me an eiderdown."

It took me until I was an adult to get this joke.
You are on top of a mountain with a goose under your arm. What is the quickest way to get down? Pluck the goose.

Possibly my all-time favorite "Peanuts" comic strip (certainly in the top ten) is this one from December 19, 1968:
Panel One: Lucy is sitting on the floor, reading, when Linus approaches. Linus: "Do chicken-birds ever build nests on mountain tops?"
Panel Two: Lucy: "Do what ever do what?" Linus: "I'm writing a research paper on chicken-birds. Do chicken-birds ever build nests on mountain tops?"
Panel Three: Lucy stares into space dumbfounded as Linus looks on.
Panel Four: Linus turns to walk away. Lucy is still sitting and staring dumbfounded. Linus: "I'll look in the encyclopedia."
The only character in all of literature who has been described as "badnass" while using the phrase "vile miscreant."

It's cool that Peanuts has existed for so long.

Let's also not forget Linus's obsession with Queen Snakes, Gully Cats, and Hedge Toads.

Lucy once tried to contrive the most sincere pumpkin patch in hopes of attracting the Great Pumpkin, but only for the publicity and its material rewards. Linus pronounced it the most hypocritical pumpkin patch he had ever seen.

Does anyone ever wonder if, in some alternate Peanuts continuity where the kids grew up, maybe Linus and Sally eventually did end up together?

Seems more likely than Lucy and Schroeder.

Schroeder has been married to his music since he was a toddler.
Can't fault him for dedication, even if he does tend to be insensitive and haughty.

I guess he got a little too absorbed.

The Boyfriend and I are thinking of having Charlie Brown and Linus as toppers on our wedding cake.

Go for it, Rocky. That's a wonderful idea.
If I ever get married to another woman, I think it's quite obvious which Peanuts characters we'd choose for our wedding cake toppers. Hint: freckles & glasses.

I second what Quis said, and I will add that we also need more women kissing.

The kissing period will run from 9am to 5pm. After that we will break for dinner.

Never mind the kissing! I just want to feel well enough to do my stretches again.
Though of course, the cats aren't impressed with them. Cats are born Yoga masters.

I love how cats seem to be generally serene and unflappable.
