On October 31, Linus Van Pelt was asked to remove himself from his place of residence; that request came from his wife, Sally. With nowhere else to go, he appeared at the home of his childhood friend, Pigpen. Several years earlier, Pigpen's wife Violet had thrown HIM out, requesting that HE never return. Can a fussbudget and a dust magnet share an apartment without driving each other crazy?

Just noticed @poconnor has made a new blog - and it contains her utterly fantastic new graphic that explains how PKU is passed on from parents!

Give it a read here on her blog:

@bourgwick I just finished the Deadcast episode on “Operator” and started the episode on “Candyman”. It’s great to hear the recording of Bob, Jerry, and Phil working on harmonies! But with Pigpen on my mind, I wonder why Pigpen doesn’t participate in the harmony singing. Has there ever been any explanation for his not being included? #GratefulDead #Deadcast #Harmonies #JerryGarcia #BobWeir #PhilLesh #Pigpen

Mornin' heads! This one's for @bourgwick #deadcast #LightninHopkins #Pigpen :GoodOlGrateful: https://youtu.be/9NpaeU6xycc

Dreaming cat.

(Also: me and clothes. That sweater was clean this morning, so of course I forgot to wear my cheap plastic working coat when I wheelbarrowed more firewood down to the house - and then carried three loads of wood inside, in my arms, held against my torso.)

This strip has made the massive nerd and #Peanuts fan in me very happy.

Heads, help me fix my jones. In my mind’s ear I have a very early and uptempo version of Easy Wind bouncing around. Please can you directly me to the appropriate show? Thank you. :stealie:
