Time warp!
Jan. 28th, 2007 04:46 pmThe Sunday page reprinted today on the Peanuts site (it'll stay up for a month in the archives there, then vanish into limbo) caught my attention. In the opening panel, Lucy proclaims "nineteen-sixty has just begun!", and I had a sense rather stronger than usual of staring into the past. I suppose it means exactly nothing in the grand scheme of things, and I can wonder how many newspapers are reprinting that opening panel these days, but I did also think back to a reprint book I once saw that changed a punchline of Sally's, "Welcome to 1962!", to "Welcome to 1969!" I suppose you can be surprised one way or another.
