CB, if you think that’s bad, you should have been there when my non-American spouse discovered “This little piggy went to market.” And was charmed by it. And asked me to do it every night for weeks.
No, that’s a horsy-back back ride. My dad did that for my sisters and myself when we were all little, and no speaking ill of the dead, Schulz is in heaven and he’s watching your EVERY move.
@orinoco womble, I think that’s very cute! I hope you didn’t begrudge it to her! There’s a similar one in Yiddish, using all the fingers and some toes (I think – it’s a while since I knew a child to try it on), and ending in, “A blessing on this child’s head!” (and you pat their head): Engi, bengi, stoopi, stengi Artsi, bartsi, golish, vartsi Yeigele, beigele, faygele, hop! Ah, gesind das kind in kop! Anyone else know of similar ones in other cultures / languages?
Small price to pay Chuck when you consider that Snoopy usually has your back. Remember when the Summer Camp bus left without you? Snoopy gave you a ride back home on his motorcycle.

Snoopy is just a creature of habit.

Just do it, Chuck.

Didn’t even recognize Snoopy in the third panel.

I wonder which one of Schultz’s kids inspired this strip?

You’re a good man, Charlie Brown.
flanders22 over 13 years ago
I suggest Charlie Brown attend one of Lucy’s 5 cent council sessions.

I LOVE horsy-back rides!
NE1956 over 13 years ago
I give my little nephews way cooler horsey-back rides. Bucking and whinnying, the whole nine yards. It helps that I’m still 1/2 kid.
aerospacehead over 13 years ago
Get your ride on, Snoopy! ;)

I have to carry my dog to bed and scratch his belly, otherwise he won’t stay in bed.

I bet a man with as much love in him as Charles Schulz looks down and smiles, enjoying that his comics still make us all happy.

So! the editor won’t even let me put in short lines. Let’s see if this helps?
RinaFarina over 13 years ago
I wanted single-spaced lines, not double-spaced…sigh.
hossblacksilver over 13 years ago
Don’t let Horace in Dark Side of the Horse find out, Charlie Brown. He might want a horsie back ride as well.
DavidAo over 13 years ago
Aww, isn’t Snoopy cute when he begs in the 2nd panel.

When Charlie Brown figures out what Snoopy is really doing, will he keep it up?
mystical-i over 13 years ago
It’s what love is all about, Charlie Brown. And we know you love Snoopy.
ccisv1 over 13 years ago
Just be grateful that your doggy really loves you!
