Peanuts by Charles Schulz for October 08, 2013

Yet you somehow forgot your math homework.

Of course, the two occurrences of “IS” in the fourth panel should be replaced by “WAS” in the present day…

I wonder what is the number of Joe Schlabonik.

During the Manhattan Project each scientist was assigned a locker. Apparently the majority chose 235 (from Uranium-235) as their “secret” code.

They had lockers in gradeschool? Wow I didn’t remember that. We only had pegs on the wall in the classroom, and cubbies. Lockers came in highschool.

I didn’t really have trouble with mine.

My older daughter would use NASCAR drivers for her combination.

It’s all baseball with Charlie Brown. HEH HEH.

No, no, no! 3 was Dale Earnhart, 24 is Jeff Gordon, and 7 is Dave Blaney…

Right. The holy trinity of baseball will work every time! lol

Linus is usually the savant, but of course Charlie Brown would find anything easy if it involves baseball,,, except actually PLAYING it.

I usually couldn’t remember my combination if I had to recite it. But I never had any trouble opening the locker. I just automatically knew where to turn the dial by habit.

What if it was 23-45-23? Those were Michael Jordan’s numbers during his Chicago Bulls career!

Costanza’s got a lock on ‘seven’

But how do you remember the batting order?

That’s no surprise. Haha

If locker combinations were anything like computer passwords, nobody would ever remember them. CB and the gang never had to deal with facebook accounts.

I have one site where the password must be between 12 and 30 characters long. Must have at least two uppercase letters, Must have at least two lower case letters. Must have at least two numbers and must have two puncuation marks.

and … it must be changed every 60 days.

Of course I have it wrtten down!

When it comes to passwords, length and unpredictability are much better than obscure characters. “ThisisapasswordIcanremember” is much more secure than “&eT3D3!*&$z”

That’s a good idea, Charlie Brown.

and the geeks say Mantle was 6….. (when he first came up he was 6… he was sent back to the farm for more seasoning, and was assigned 7 the second time)

@Snoopy_FanSorry I wasn’t around to wish you a great weekend. I wasn’t well. Nothing really bad but it’s too embarrassing to talk about on these pages. I hope you don’t mind.I was thinking of you too (as usual) and I had a brilliant weekend! Hope you did also.I missed you loads as well.Hugs and Kisses!xxx

I guess someone who really is into baseball, like Charlie Brown, would choose to remember a locker combination, if the numbers just happen to be the same as the jersey numbers, of your favorite players. Or if you’re into football, same difference—if ANY combination of numbers, for that matter, happen to be the same as the numbers, of favorite football players, of yours. Amazing and interesting, AND, above all, CREATIVE.

I don’t think I have this one but it’s interesting eh?!!!!…Charlie’s locker combination is Babe Ruth Willie Mays and Mickey Mantle’s uniform numbers??!!!!
