Peanuts by Charles Schulz for April 11, 2021

’tis the thought that counts, right?

Hey, I was impressed.

Sometimes you have to make do with what you have to work with.

Hey, at least they tried! They also could have had the WW1 flying ace do a fly over in his Sopwith Camel!

Next at the Music Hall “Concert for piano and organ”: featuring Schroeder and Woodstock.

Flying upside down is pretty impressive. I’d like to see a pigeon do that.

It didn’t work out well for the doves at the 1988 Seoul Olympics opening ceremony…https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NxxbLJp_qLs

Hey P Patty, take it easy on Chuck and Snoopy. It is the thought that counts!

Hey, Peppermint Patty. You are in the Sub-Pee-Wee League. Just wait a few years and you will get into bigger leagues with bigger and better “Opening Day Ceremonies”.

That’s the smallest pipe organ ever … though it could’ve been done with a theremin!! 8^0

“Oh say can you see…”

I knew Snoopy wouldn’t be a kneeler.

I guess Joe Schlabotnik wasn’t available to throw out the first pitch…

I believe PP has it mixed up. The release of pigeons she refers to was done in the book AND movie BEN HUR just prior to the chariot race. When the pigeons were released there was a group of trumpeters blaring into the air. It was an impressive opening for the impending race. Nevertheless, Woodstock flying upside down is a grand entrance for Patty’s and Chuck’s otherwise ersatz teams to start another season of mass confusion…..

Love, love, love, Woodstock’s little pipe organ! I wonder if Schroeder has one?

Dive-bombing pigeons? Don’t think I’d like to be at that stadium.

Reminds of this year’s All Star Game — flap, flap, flop

That’s even better!

“Learn to use what you have got, and you won’t miss what you have not.”

wait until she sees the limited number of fans in the stands as compared to previous years. hopefully what use to be will be again!

I’ve always wondered how Woodstock flies upside down

I have something planned for Thursday. Like the players and managers and coaches, and even umpires I will be wearing #42 on my jersey. They will be wearing their team jerseys, mine will be a replica Brooklyn Dodgers home jersey, also with #42. If you don’t know why, you need to know more about baseball. Happy reading. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jackie_Robinson_Day

Well, Patti first of all you are not a major league team.

Beautiful!

At least he did something. Good ol’ Chuck, ahem Brownie Charles.

Oops

Fire up the trusty old Sopwith Camel and have WWI flying ace Snoopy do a fly by to salute opening day.

Though not geometric it does have a pattern, up and down. I think Woodstock reads too many numerical or economic graphs.

Locally I knew there was a chance of rain for our opening day, so I was surprised when the TV showed that it was so sunny here [I usually don’t put the sound on]. After what seemed like a quick seven innings, the ceremonies were really impressive including small boxes handed out to everyone in the organization and lots of old timers showing up. Turns out it was rained out, but they needed to show something between the commercials. [I did wonder about the packed crowd with no masks on.]

She’s right. Where are Woodstock’s friends? 1 bird does not equal a flock.

I remember during a football halftime show thousands of helium balloons were released in the air. The theme was titled A Tribute To Molecules.

It’s sandlot baseball, Peppermint Patty. That’s FAR MORE opening ceremonies than sandlot baseball gets. MORE than most Little League baseball gets too.

What about the other Woodstocks? They can join him.

Better than nothing, Patty.

Close enough

Sorry, Patty, you buy cheap, you get cheep. :-)

It’s all that was left in the budget.
