Peanuts by Charles Schulz for November 20, 2013

As Roz Chast says, “Sue, sue, sue.” “If you don’t sue, I will.” “It’s an open and shut case.”

Charlie Brown doesn’t see the bright side of things very often but when he does, it’s during the oddest situations.

Do Crossing Guards get Purple Hearts?

Now he has an excuse for not getting that assignment done.

I wonder if he’ll get get-well cards? Probably not.When I was a kid I was a bit of a Charlie Brown—glasses, clumsy, egghead, girl—but at age 10 I was hospitalised with a burst appendix. Everyone in the class sent cards. I was amazed. I don’t care if it was a class assignment, it was nice.

I love the smile on CB’s face in the 4th panel.

And today’s lesson is: Happiness (until you get your puppy) lies in the ability to find the silver lining.

It doesn’t take much to make Charlie Brown happy, does it? All you have to do is run him down…

Now you have an excuse to not to do the project.

Hmm..my thinking is CB is waiting to get a card from the Little Red Haired Girl….hmmm..

Ok. That’s what happened. And the person didn’t even stop to apologize and see if he was okay. That’s called a “hit and run”. His parents should sue.

Does the Safety Patrol award Purple Hearts?

You rest easy, Charlie Brown.

I had that exact same smile on my face in the last panel when I was too ill to go to school.

LOL Getting bumped by a car makes him happy

“DEAR Brother”??? Gotta be the first (AND ONLY) time Sally Brown ever said THAT.

I was hit by a car while riding my bike when I was 8. I wasn’t hospitalized (no broken bones, and it was the middle of summer so there may have been about five or six guys who actually knew what happened to me, and only about one or two actually came to visit while I was recuperating at home – and they didn’t bring gifts.

…..or, a Charlotte?????

good to know Charlie’s ok but why does Sally call him Big Brother?!!..why doesn’t she call him Charlie??!!!!!! that’s always puzzled me
