At least it’s not a boomerang eating tree. It might fall out Chuck.

My Boomerang Won’t Come Back. Definitely non-PC: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_prtbj4MtDU

But what do you call a boomerang that won’t come back?

Still better than his Manchester Holiday, where he tried to kick a football and Harry Maguire pulled the ball away

Rats!

AAAUUGGHHH!!!

GOOD GRIEF!

Charlie’s gotta be an old boomer by now.

♬ My boomerang won’t come back

My boomerang won’t come back

I’ve waved the thing all over the place

Practiced till I was blue in the face

I’m a big disgrace to the Aborigine race

My boomerang won’t come back ♪♩

– Charlie Drake My Boomerang won’t Come Back, 1961

Looks like the trees and the boomerangs are against Charlie Brown. Have they been in colluding with the kites and trees back home?

SHOE also honors Charlie B today.

Charlie Brown’s kite is in the tree over at Shoe this Morning. https://www.arcamax.com/thefunnies/shoe/

And I’m betting the kangaroos are just setting him up by pretending to allow him a soccer corner kick, too.

Can not even the USA for a change of luck.

This is the third Peanuts reference I’ve seen today. The other two are in Lio and Rubes.

Great the tree eats kites AND boomerangs
