Peanuts by Charles Schulz for August 29, 1965
Transcript:
Linus is sitting with his eyes closed, he is wearing a wizard hat and holding a magic globe. (BR BR) Lucy is walking and reading the newspaper, she says "Fantastic!" (BR BR) Lucy stops and ask Linus who is standing holding his blanket and sucking his thumb, "Have you ever known anyone who has the gift of prophecy?" Linus replies, " Just myself" (BR BR) Lucy looks up from the paper and says, "YOU?" (BR BR) Linus stands in front of Lucy and holds up a finger while saying, "Absolutely! I can predict what any adult will answer when he or she is asked a certain question.." (BR BR) Lucy stands with her hand to her mouth in thought as Linus holds out both his arms and says, "If you go up to an adult, and say, "How come we have a Mother's day and a Father's day, but we don't have a children's day?" That adult will always answer, "Every day is children's day!" (BR BR) Linus and Lucy are face to face as Linus points out, "It doesn't matter what adult you ask...You will always get the same answer..It is an absolute certainty!" (BR BR) Lucy walks away from Linus saying, "I'll try it out on Grandma.." (BR BR) Linus is standing holding his blanket and sucking his thumb as he hears Lucy ask, "Grandma, How come we have a Mother's day and a Father's Day, but we don't have a children's day?" Grandma replies, "Every day is children's day" (BR BR) Lucy is standing back next to Linus as he says, " The gift of prophecy!" (BR BR)
