Peanuts by Charles Schulz for January 08, 2013

The year in charge of… guy.

1935…wowI guess that means there’s another Great Depression.(I actually pay attention in History Class o.O)

Didn’t think that far ahead, did you, Lucy? (What IS the address of Father Time anyway?)

@Linus, Pope Gregory XIII

Lucy, it wouldn’t be a “used year”, it would be a “recycled year”!

1935 in 1966 and 2013.

Think of it as a pre-enjoyed year.

The drawing is especially good today in the various depictions of Linus. I love his expressions as he thinks about what Lucy is saying.

Good question, Linus.

To do Y2K testing on a cell phone billing program we had to find a “clone” year – one in which the julian day matched the month day and day of the week as the base line year.

I think we used 2010 as the clone year 1999. Everyone’s bill ran correctly except that they were all 11 years overdue payment.

we call my granpappy " History"..he repeats himself all the time…..

The Mayans apparently.

I agree that the Vatican used to be in charge of the calendar year. If it weren’t for leap years, there would only be 7 different types of years!

hhahahah too funny

this is funny!!!!!!!…love Peanuts…Lucy’s expression is funny when Linus asked who’s in charge of years???…I like Linus he believes in the Great Pumpkin and God at the same time wish Lucy wouldn’t fuss at him about his blanket it makes Linus Linus

I’ll say it again… Lucy grew up to have a lucrative almost life-long run in the US Senate, throwing her weight around and being glorified in the media. I think she’s still there now.

1967 and 1961 were the same, and, as a kid, an incredibly easy “fix” to draw on the calendar.

Why I had access to a 1961 calendar in late ’66 is a mystery to this day. I suspect my father had a hand in it.

I bet she means the calendars were the same (There are only 14 possible different calendars which get reused).
