Sorry to find this too late… this is a deal that ends Sunday at 11:59 PM Pacific, and I found out about it with less than 13 hours left to go. If you’re getting this by email, it’s likely too late. Anyway, for each whole $50 you spend on a …
The AAUGH Blog just donated some items from the AAUGH.com Reference Library to the Schulz Museum and Research center. It was always are hope that certain things end up there, but we planned to donate them later in life, or perhaps just leave them in a will, if I ever …
I stopped by Five Below the other day. It’s a youth-targeted store chain where most of the items are $5. I was surprised to find a big pile of It’s a Big World, Charlie Brown on their books table. It’s a full-color collection of strips from 1997 (about when the Rerun …
In the past, I’ve reviewed a couple of pre-Peanuts books about dogs named Snoopy… but my latest find is just a bit different. It’s about a white kitty, and her name is Snoopy. And that’s a fact you might quickly glean from the tile: Snoopy gets a name. Which, let’s face it, …

Seen here is Charles Q. Brown Jr., probably the most powerful Charlie Brown there has ever been… except they didn’t call him “Charlie”. Mostly, they called him “sir”, as he rose through the ranks of the United States Air Force to become a four-star general… and then the Air Force …
This blog lives at the intersection of “Peanuts” and “books”, which is generally a comfortable place to be, but it has its surprises. The other day, my wife, daughter, and I were shopping at Miniso, a mall store that leans on licensed product (lots of Snoopy) and Japanese import items. …
Performed entertainment depicting the Peanuts characters aged up is a genre all its own. While there have been movies like (insert name of indy film that I just stumbled upon a few years back and now can neither recall the name of nor find any reference to), it’s been more …
Today is 25 years since Charles Schulz passed away. Tomorrow is 25 years since the final Peanuts strip ran. And yet, Peanuts is far from gone. The material is more available than it was when the strip was actually being created, with the entire run collected into books and available …
