Peanuts Begins by Charles Schulz for February 11, 2024

Should have just said yes, Charlie Brown.

Beauty’s only skin deep yeah, yeah, yeah, but ugly goes all the way to the bone.

You’re such a kidder, Charlie Brown!

What a shame…in a few years a silver tongue like that would get him laid. Worked for me…

According to story, there was a female member of the British Parliament who used to go head to head with Winston Churchill. At one state function, Churchill had been bending the elbow pretty well, as he was known to do. The female MP approached him and accused him of being not just drunk, but exceedingly drunk. His reply was classic:

Yes Madam, I am exceedingly drunk. And you are exceedingly ugly. But in the morning, I shall be sober.

It’s fascinating to see Schulz trying out catch phrases. “I did my best” was intended to be a running gag. He hadn’t yet discovered, “Oh, good grief!”

I’d like to see what Patty does when (and if) she catches him

Is that Violet? Or the original Patty?

Proverbs 31:30 Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Try that one Charlie Brown.
