Peanuts Begins by Charles Schulz for December 31, 2021

That’s not a probability, that’s a fact.

Loving a music man ain’t always what it supposed to be. —Steve Perry of Journey (1949-~~~~~)

Well, Lucy would have no chance at all if Schroeder played the banjo.

You better play a different tune, Lucy!

Well, Schroeder knows that she is alive now.

“On a piano, or sometimes on a crowded street, I’ve been near you, but you’ve never noticed me.”

“Hey, you! Get off of my piano!”

When Snoopy did it in “A Charlie Brown Christmas”, all it took was a dirty look to make him stop.

Sorry Lucy-gal: it will never happen, even if it did begin way back here in the early 1950s… ;-)

And there it begins….

Fine. He knows you’re alive. He may not be happy about it, but he knows it. Satisfied?

Lucy might have had better luck performing the dance of the seven veils, or the dance of the seven schmattas, beside or in front of Schroeder’s piano. Then again . . . .

May 2022 be a happier and a healthier year for us all.

In regard to the last panel…

“First, an emotion of protectiveness. Now, one of sympathy…excellent…”

Without cheating and looking it up, does anyone know that quote?

Lots if lucky dudes out there.

Probably marries her therapist.

Thus ends Lucy’s career as a torch singer in a nightclub!

Lost her mind?

Nope, not gonna say it. Too easy

“Terrible how they dent the piano in that way. With their heavy arias.”

What are scuff marks?
