Peanuts by Charles Schulz for October 17, 2024

I thought that was a G clef.

Got it !

Throw in some calligraphy. That would blow their mind!

I still say Sally’s a strange one.

Back in the 60s and 70s our teachers would have marked you down for using an ampersand in a theme.

i have a colleague who does that in e-mails. she also doesn’t put a space after the ampersand (e.g. “please order mop heads &toilet paper”) so it looks ignorant and lazy

Ampersand saves the day.

So that’s what it’s called.

& D-

I Love Ampersands. Does anyone under the age of 50 know what it is?

Also, try a catchy subtitle. For instance, Schulz used “Peanuts: featuring good old Charlie Brown.” Try “Peanuts: The Sally Surprise!”

Imagine being impressed by that…

If you see a ~ inside a O in your e mail inbox… call tech support. You’ve been hacked.

I always thought it was anfersand.

I always just used to throw in a Latin phrase or two. Didn’t really work, but at least I sounded cool in front of the class.

If it wasn’t for the ampersand, AT&T would just be called ATT. Ben & Jerry’s would just be called Ben Jerry’s, The old A&M record label would just be called AM. And Johnson & Johnson would just be called Johnson Johnson. (don’t stutter.)
