Peanuts by Charles Schulz for May 13, 2014

Back to the pen I see, Charlie Brown.

just write in pencileasy

He needs to borrow Snoopy’s typewriter…though goodness knows what kind of mess he’d make of five carbons!

SIX TIMES???

Does Charlie Brown have six friends?

You’re lucky you don’t have to write up 20, CB.

FRIENDS??

Too much like a school homework assignment.

Can anybody remember if Charlie Brown’s Pencil Pal was ever given a first name? I don’t think so but I could be wrong about this.

(1) Chain letters are s’posed to be typed, not handwritten. ~ (2) Nobody ever makes any money on those chain letters so … (3) Just mail the 1 chain letter you received to some poor unsuspecting soul chosen at random from the phone book so the “curse” of breaking the chain will not affect you! ☺

He should use a pencil.

I used to look like that in the last panel when my left hand starting hurting after writing for a long time.

Poor ol’ Charlie Brown.

During the 60’s Space Race, NASA spent millions developing a pen that would work in zero gravity; the Soviets used pencils…
