I wonder if he’ll get get-well cards? Probably not.When I was a kid I was a bit of a Charlie Brown—glasses, clumsy, egghead, girl—but at age 10 I was hospitalised with a burst appendix. Everyone in the class sent cards. I was amazed. I don’t care if it was a class assignment, it was nice.
I was hit by a car while riding my bike when I was 8. I wasn’t hospitalized (no broken bones, and it was the middle of summer so there may have been about five or six guys who actually knew what happened to me, and only about one or two actually came to visit while I was recuperating at home – and they didn’t bring gifts.

As Roz Chast says, “Sue, sue, sue.” “If you don’t sue, I will.” “It’s an open and shut case.”

Charlie Brown doesn’t see the bright side of things very often but when he does, it’s during the oddest situations.

And today’s lesson is: Happiness (until you get your puppy) lies in the ability to find the silver lining.

It doesn’t take much to make Charlie Brown happy, does it? All you have to do is run him down…

Ok. That’s what happened. And the person didn’t even stop to apologize and see if he was okay. That’s called a “hit and run”. His parents should sue.

Does the Safety Patrol award Purple Hearts?

You rest easy, Charlie Brown.
I had that exact same smile on my face in the last panel when I was too ill to go to school.
