Peanuts by Charles Schulz for December 16, 2017

Well played, Schroeder. VERY well played!

Obviously this strip was first printed in NINETEEN-seventy (says right there between the first and second panels). Ludwig would more likely be 247-years-old by the year 2017.

Now Lucy knows what Charlie Brown feels like when she pulls away the football.

Anyone translate what Snoopy said in German?

Snoopy is quoting a passage in the 4th movement of the 9th symphony, “not these sounds”

Happy Birthday, Number Three!!!!

Oh, and yeah… Happy Birthday, Ludwig!!!!

What? Lucy thought she was going to get a kiss from Schroeder himself? Get real!

Karma for all the football bait-and-switches.

Happy Beethoven’s Birthday …_

Beethoven is actually 247 years old today, seeing as he was born in 1770. That means today’s strip is actually from 1970. Huh, it’s been around a long time, hasn’t it?

Try to listen to the Canadian Brass (along with members of the New York Philharmonic and Boston Symphony Brass Sections) play the first movement of the 5th Symphony!

Nice job, Schroeder!

Haha! I knew it was too good to be true.

Today just so happens to be my birthday, AND I LOVE IT !!!

Google Translate made it out as 16/5000“Not these sounds”
