Peanuts by Charles Schulz for August 18, 2012

A blog of dirt.

at the Brickyard kissing the bricks, as have Jeff Gordon and others, Charlie Brown

You’ve got to admire his consistency.

He grew up and became a campaign manager.

Looks like CB’s got all the dirt on you, Pig Pen.

Doesn’t the kid have parents to make sure the kid takes his daily bath??

i still love you pigpen

Does Charlie Brown have the one-up on someone else for change?

Sherlock Brown.

You would think that, of all people, Charlie Brown would be the LAST person to pick on Pig-Pen. (Oh, and Packer12, in one strip it showed Pig-Pen all cleaned up, just standing still, then…wait for it…WHAM! Instant dirty!)

Charlie Brown, forensic investigator.

Yes, the good ol’ days. I did stuff like that too, when I was a kid. If he went to those places unattended these days, someone would have reported his parents to Social Services.

Pig-Pen is off to his job as an undrground artist in today’s Pearls Before Swine strip. “Pen, er….brush name” Greg.

Awesome animation Top Cat! : )

You wouldn’t think CB would pick on pig pen. Of all the people!

Sherlock Brown indeed. What we forget is that in real life, Pig-Pen would smell like he looks. This might be off-putting.

Pigpen’s signature style. Lol

I like Pigpen. He is very down to earth person. Have you ever heard him say an unkind word about someone? Does he insult anyone? .The people that run their vehicles through mud have little to point fingers.

Oh leave him alone, Charlie Brown.

You’re getting like Lucy.

Brown Charlie is such a wise guy. He deserved to be disliked. Look how he treated poor PP.

Pigpen pretty much described himself as a “dirt magnet.” There were several strips in which he had been cleaned up and as he walked along – or even just stood in one place – he got dirtier and dirtier.

Pig-Pen: You’re a big disgrace;you’ve got mud on your face! (And all over your body, clothes, and shoes.)

We have a pretty white cat named Pippin. She is a princess who loves to roll in the dirt. That is when we call her Pig Pen!

Gawd, I work with somebody like this. AND they have the accompanying smell to boot.
