Peanuts by Charles Schulz for March 17, 2025

So what are you sitting in that bean bag chair?

We interrupt our regular program to say “What you’re watching really is rubbish – go and do something else”.

News is just lowering the bar of relevancy to comments on the weather and sports.

Then they played a song by the Rascals about a beautiful morning.

This reminds me of a local weatherman standing in front of a greenscreen of an amazing sunset, then as they went to the map he said “if you want to keep looking at that sunset live feed, it’s on our website and phone app!”

It was a nice day for a few moments when the Sun came out, now the clouds brought back the dreariness.

“Now get out there and enjoy it!”

Let’s all go out and play ! ;-)

That’s your cue to go out, babe!

A Frank and Ernest strip from 1978 – meaning it isn’t available on this site unless it was later redone – showed a newscaster announcing, “The streets were quiet today in Tokyo, Athens, and Grand Rapids. —Elsewhere, fighting continued…”

So turn off your TV and get out there and enjoy it!

Not like our day yesterday, unpredicted 1 foot of snow as I was about to leave for church! No sign of a plow, shoveled all day with a bad back! HEAVY wet snowball stuff! Also winds, lots of branches down! Changed my socks three times! Power, internet, phones went out. Spectrum told me I’d get a credit, then at midnight they reneged, said they don’t give them for outages. Told me to call my electric company, Yeah right. No water/toilets when power is out. Went in the bushes. Fun. Glad yesterday is over!

It’s a warm St. Patrick’s day outside today.

Yeah, sure is.

Oh what a beautiful morning

Oh,what a beautiful day…..

We interrupt this special bulletin to bring you a special bulletin.

(You know it has to happen sooner or later).

“Ladies and gentlemen, we interrupt this news bulletin to bring you a program!”

Decades and decades before smartphones, tablets and the internet. Kid Sneaker Net, repeating the gossip you heard your mother gathering on the neighborhood Party Line.

It’s a beautiful day

Don’t let it get away

U2

We can use more news of this nature.

Go enjoy it!

The message would be a device notification or pop up ad these days.
