Getting Snoopy’s gourd

I now have my copy of Baby Snoopy’s Pumpkin. I laughed, I cried, it changed my life.

Oh, okay, it’s just a silly kids’ book, and the ventral mystery of it (what is that odd thing Baby Snoopy is growing?) is kinda given away by the title.

And a couple off-topic notes: the first volume of The Complete Dennis the Menace is now shipping, and I’m once again reviewing most of the new TV shows of the fall season.

It briefly tells you that Charlie …
