If Peanuts strips were ever shown on TV, as a TV show series, as skits on the show, even, chances are they would end with HILARIOUS music, like on Sesame Street, at the end, with the punch line(you know, for anyone who’s of my generation, who would have watched “Old School Sesame Street,” there was always that “milky sounding”of seven notes, that I have always called the "WIP"song—Wip-wip, wipwipwipwip. WIP!" or that four-note tuba sound, heard at the end of typical Bert and Ernie skits—well, that’s what I’m talking about here. Anyway, at the punch line here, Lucy—“Yes, Charlie Brown, that’s EXACTLY what I want you to do, turn the whole ball field around, so the sun won’t shine in my beautiful eyes,” and what CB is like, in Panel 4:“I JUST can’t win, can I? I JUST CAN”T WIN!" Wipwip, wipwipwipwip. WIP!!! HILARIOUS song, or tune, that "WIP"song, on “Old School Sesame Street,”(at the end of skits with funny endings, of course.)
