Sunday, June 7: More Than You Ever Wanted To Know About Jumping Ropes

Peanuts

Awesome. I think I even like the joke in the lead throwaway panels better than the main strip!

There are shades here of Linus' pontificating a litany of made-up sightings of the Great Pumpkin.

  1. "GIVE 'ER TH' GUN" is the highlight of the entire strip. But yes, the "insurance agent" bit is good too.
