Books "No one can alter the course of things, not even a Van Pelt."
Posted by Paul Constant on Tue, Feb 10, 2009 at 6:05 PM
There's a lovely little Charlie Brown parody over here:
Brown.
It’s easy to get lost in the shuffle of madness when you’ve got a name like Brown.
That goes with the territory, of course, the land of the toy piano and the empty mailbox, the sketchy gauntlet of sinister trees and greedy sidewalks, sequestering their stolen treasures, their kite and ice cream cone holdings, a booty for the next shrink who writes me in his datebook.
I’m cursed. Have been since I was a boy. I’m not blind to the fact.
And illustrations of the story are for sale over here. I really wanted the drunken Schroeder one, but it's already sold. Sigh.

reminds me of this bit from a couple years ago: Peanuts by Charles Bukowski (starring good old Charlie Branaski).
