Peanuts by Charles Schulz for August 22, 2023

maybe ground school for flying!

You should know by now, Chuck, that Snoopy goes his own way.

Take the course. You’ll be in there with a lotta jocks!!

Macrame with paws? Better to try Bongo’s 101.

What’s MACRAME?

Joe Cool at night school?

Sure, why not. Whatever the class, they’ll all end the same for you: with an ‘F’.

I wonder how Charlie knows what classes night school has since he and the kids go to day school? When I was in elementary school I didn’t even know there was a thing called night school! I thought the school closed its doors after the school buses left and there was only the janitor at night in the building cleaning with a broom.

Maybe he should go to pilot school. That’s right up his alley.

Macramé . . . one of those very 70s trends, like fondue.

NO, no… anything but macramé

now we’ve been through knitting and crochet fads, I guess a macrame revival is up soon

Maybe self defense …… from the neighbor’s …………..“CAT” …… ;)

Like most parent child conversations regarding higher education

Go for it!!

My ex SIL took macrame classes in order to make a macrame bikini to get an all over tan without removing her suit. She developed carcinoma of both areolae. Had to have them surgically removed along with about 50% of the supporting tissue. Later had to have that 50% and a good chunk of her nose and left earlobe removed as well. And she complained to me about it “You’re the oncologist (pædiatric) you should have done something!!!.” “I did. I told you to put on sunscreen, all over, and limit your exposure to 10 minutes a side, once a WEEK. More than once. And then take a shower and put on aloe vera lotion after and wear long sleeves and long pants and big floppy hats for the next 48 hours” She griped and complained so much that I eventually took her into my practice one day and then to the hospital to meet a patient of mine who had undergone surgery, including an amputation, chemo and radiation and would be celebrating her 7th birthday the next week. She never said a word to me about that ever again. Nor made fun of my long pants, long sleeves or summer fedora or sunglasses ever after.

Papier Mache. Just in time for the holidays.

I got into computer programming to design software for businesses. Just before the first commercial database application was released.

I am moving forward as if Peanuts Begins had continued instead of going back to the start. February 11, 1959 mentions Tennessee Ernie Ford. I don’t know why, but it is a fact that the characters were first animated in commercials that aired on his show.

Well … how about Tactical Macrame?
