Great tribute. Thanks, Jerry.
You saved the best for last. Charlie Brown all grown up.
Thanks for the post, Jerry. Charles Schulz was one of the best.
Thank you, Sparky. Thank you, Jerry.

Yesterday was the 100th anniversary of the birth of Charles Schulz, author of "Peanuts." Most of the comics referred to him. It's too bad he couldn't be around to see the tribute.
The guy that posted this on Facebook did it as a tributeā¦ see his text at bottom of picture.
This guy, posting under the name of "In-Country" has some great military/Vietnam cartoons. I have been following him on Facebook. If you were in Vietnam, you probably know what is in the 1/2 a 55 gallon drum... ain't pleasant and I would NOT want a doughnut that was near it.
Jerry,
Your best for one of the very best. Thanks.

I don't know how many people knew this but Charles Schultz answered his own phone in his office . Spoke to him a few times ! All you did was dial his number !
Thanks for posting Jerry.
I get a daily download of 52 comics that I have selected from GoComics.com. Twenty-two of them included a tribute to Charles Shultz. Quite a few of the comics I follow are from the archives, so 22 would probably be over half of the currently drawn ones I receive included a reference. At least one "political" cartoonist also included a tribute. Only two that Jerry posted were on my list.
It was also fun to learn the origin of the nickname "Sparky." I may have known it in the past but if so, it must have been lost in one of those foggy areas that seem to be increasing as the years go by.
So, thanks to each cartoonist for their clever inclusion of the Peanuts gang in yesterday's cartoons and the memories they brought back.
