Thought you folks would get a kick out of this

If you haven't seen it yet, todays Peanut's comic strip relates to pool.

Very nice.

Sometimes i wonder who pays these cartoonists and why.

Charles Shultz is dead!

Nostroke...All of the Peanuts cartoons are reruns of old comic strips. Charles Shultz died several years ago, and his comics are now in rerun syndication. His foundation receives the royalties from the reruns, and donates them to charity.

I don't get it. A wastebasket? A chair? I don't see anything "funny".

Odd thing is, in the last panel, top right corner - it's got Schultz's sig plus "3/15/06".

Lucy is a girl, she's couldn't care less what he's building. I think that's the point. Could be wrong, have been before will be again.

I knew he was dead- I just thought some unfunny guy must have taken over. But I guess CS dogged it too at times.

He's not only playing pool, but he has built the table in order to play.

Now that is passion!

Some of Shultz's work was to show the character of his characters', and in that there was humor. In some ways it could be a slam against playing pool, in another way it just shows how much the project (and maybe the game) meant to Linus.
