Italian surprise
I was going to do a brief write-up on Beaglefest, including mentioning the few things I got to add to the AAUGH.com Reference Library… really, just five items, three of which were books in Italian, which were picked up at the Snoopy Gift Shop. Now, normally I wouldn’t pick up …
The AAUGH Blogger’s next Peanuts-related book
Since the news came out at Beaglefest, I might as well announce it here as well: I’ve helped Judy Sladky with the writing of her memoire. A memoir about what, you ask? Well, for those of you who don’t know who Judy is… you know how you never see Clark …

Peanuts and also me at Comic-Con
Peanuts will indeed be a part of Comic-Con International: San Diego (yes, that’s its official name) once again this year. There will even be a pop-up shop outside of the Convention Center again, which means that locals can get access to special merch without getting the hard-to-get Comic Con entry …
More on Snoopy Presents: A Summer Musical
Well, there’s a promotional video out now out Snoopy Presents: A Summer Musical… but I can’t right off find any source that will let me embed it here. But I did manage to grab some screenshots. The plot is apparently that Sally is going to summer camp for the first time, …
