Peanuts by Charles Schulz for December 07, 2018

and Snoopy is still unable to lift Lucy off her feet

Don’t cancel the Olympics, Snoopy. Just go back to bed and get a new partner in the morning. This one will never make it into the Olympics as a competitor even if she starts practicing at midnight every day for twenty years straight

Forget the Olympics, Snoopy needs his beauty sleep.

As a skater, (now an ADULT one), I STILL get up at 5am for early morning ice. But my mother is long dead and I’ll bet she’s finally getting the sleep she missed.

Well, all over the northern part of their time zone (which, despite his residency in CA, still looks to be the Central time zone here in MN)…

Most dogs are ready to go at any given time, but then, Snoopy’s not “most dogs”…

…and after you win a gold medal, then what?

It’s 5:30 in Newfoundland!

If I remember correctly, it was Snoopy who volunteered himself for the job. Regret is strongest in the very early morning.

Lucy, you’re supposed to be so smart. You should know that’s not true. In some parts of the world, families are still sleeping. In some parts of the world, parents and kids are having breakfast. Other parents and kids are having lunch. Others are having dinner. And others are just now getting ready for bed.

Don’t blame Lucy, it must be a California thing. That’s why Hollywood keeps producing Christmas shows where people “meet” Santa on Christmas Eve, just before he takes off to deliver his Christmas presents, forgetting that Christmas starts Dec 24th at 5am ET here in the states.

If you don’t understand that, Google “international date line.”

You notice that Lucy’s mother is sleeping in……….

By the way, it’s more than a little pathetic when people try to live vicariously through their children. They should live vicariously through their comic strips!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Snoopy, you asked for it.

Great idea Snoopy and Calvin agrees

…Lucy doesn’t understand time zones very well, I guess.

Cancelling the olympics is a GREAT idea, however.

Waking up early once in a while can be fun snoopy.
