Peanuts by Charles Schulz for January 30, 2017

Peppermint Patty sure is making a big, sad fuss o’er the no-sandals-at-school thing.

Ironic timing, Franklin. Try getting held at an airport for twenty hours because of the capricious whim of a bigoted tyrant-wannabe and his ‘alt-right’ Svengali, kids.

I remember being very sad when saddle shoes went out of fashion because I had to continue wearing heavy, clunky orthopedic shoes while everyone else was wearing sneakers and moccassins and such.

Franklin could lift Patty’s spirits up

This strip might be the only one where we see her not wearing sandals.

Meanwhile, referring to Peppermint Patty as a “little girl” might soon cause Franklin to be cryin’…

Awww…no Snoopy to kiss the tear away…

No, Franklin, sadly not true. LIttle girls cry for all sorts of reasons, some not at all sympathetic. I have three granddaughters and two nieces under the age of 7; believe me, I KNOW!

She’ll get over it. Time is a great healer.

Apparently.
