I played the part of Linus in high school when we did that play for Christmas.

I watched it this weekend on AppleTV with my grandchildren. Brought back fond memories of watching it when I was their age. As I recall it was about this time, that Apollo 9 or 10 made their famous reading from the orbit of the moon. Still brings tears to my eyes to hear them reading the passages of Genesis on how God created the Earth to the entire planet who was obviously listening intently to it.

Exactly. You never truly own anything that's not physical media.

We watch it every year, and I have to admit… it is dreadful. It is slow, the audio is grating… I just don’t enjoy it much. The kids like it, so I guess that’s enough.

I've only recently admitted that I just don't like the Peanuts at all, and I never Have. I've never enjoyed the cartoons or holiday specials.

One way to defeat the cancel culture is to buy, or record, the program. Watch it when so inclined, and pass it down.


Yep, couldn't find it on any of the streaming services other than Apple, so I checked my DVD library of recordings from previous years and found it there!!

I would love for either of these jerkoffs to explain why they had cause to 'fret.'
