The final Peanuts specials of the year, I assume
Tonight at the start of prime time, ABC will air Happy New Year, Charlie Brown, with the hour rounded out by She’s a Good Skate, Charlie Brown. This event is so tumultuous that, at this point, ABC doesn’t even have it on their online schedule, instead showing a blank box …
Last minute gifts
I hope you’re all hunkered down with the ones you love, in joy and in comfort now, whether you’re celebrating a holiday or not. But if it’s the case where you just realized you didn’t get anything for Aunt Greta, and the stores are closed and you’ve run out of …
Time running down, but not out.
It’s still possible to order gifts from Amazon, with overnight shipping, and have them get there by Christmas. But we are in the last few hours. They’ve got the Merry Christmas, Charlie Brown look-and-find book back in stock. And hey, if you bought someone an ebook reader or an MP3 …
Holiday greetings from AAUGH.com!
The actual holiday part of the Holiday Season starts at sundown tonight, with the beginning of Hannukah, so I thought this a good time to put up the holiday greetings recorded by the younger members of the staff here at the corporate campus, the famed AAUGH-dot-Complex: If you see this, …

Must be the reason they’re showing Warm Blanket again tonight
HAPPY BEETHOVEN’S BIRTHDAY! Whatja get me?
Christmas Joy is… a Peanuts book!
AAUGH! Here it is, the heart of frankly the most lucrative season for being the AAUGH Blogger (not that it adds up to that much), and first my main computer is in the shop for over a week, and now that it’s back, it and my scanner are no longer …
Peanuts take over TV
Thursday night, ABC will air A Charlie Brown Christmas, in its full, uncut glory (well, of course, excepting the Coca-Cola ad from the start of the show, which odds are good that you’ve never seen), followed by Charlie Brown’s Chrismas Tales, as the first hour of its prime-time linup. Friday …
