Sinister: PEANUTS AND B&S
hiyee! About the Charlie Brown thing, i was told something about the guy who writes them, damn whats his name? sorry, I've forgotten, but it really made me think. Charlie brown, the little lad who you always felt sorry for, was actually based on the writer, and he was in unrequited love with this other girl who was also made into the cartoon, but i forget what her name was. Who ever thinks of the guys who write the cartoons as having tortured lives? There was always a melancholy air to Charlie Brown but it never *connects* does it? Thhere was a pic of him accepting an award with massive characters of Snoopy behind him, and it was sad because these held him back from doing the great art he wanted to produce. not that Snoopy isn't great (in fact I named my hamster Snoopy cos i never had a dog) but you know what I mean. Quite sad i thought. Well, it is a monday evening. and to all the people who mailed me for tigermilk-let me know if you want radio sessions and if so what ones, just in case you need any.....

I think that the unrequited love that you are talking about was just referred to as 'the little red-haired girl' in the books, I always found it so sad when he plucked up the courage to go to her front door and chickened out before she answered or it was her gran that answered and he ran away. aaaaahhhh, L'amour! it'll break your heart Love and hugs, Laura :) xxx On Mon, 8 Dec 1997, Sarah wrote:

Funny it came up, but since it was mentioned I admit that the first two things I do when I arrive at work is reading my B&S emails and then going to http://umweb1.unitedmedia.com/comics/peanuts/ to read the peanut strip of the day.
