Didn't get the letters done again.Doug came up early and we played games until about one.
So far of the two people I had going to the movie with me, I now have four. Oh, well. It's the last time.
Today I saw a Martin-Lewis picture.
Spent the afternoon re-reading all my PEANUTS strip collections.
I saw MANHUNTER again.
NOTES: MANHUNTER was a short-lived TV series with Ken Howard as a Depression-era bounty hunter. Seen above is the pilot as it was eventually released on VHS. The pilot co-starred Stefanie Powers and her then-husband, Gary Lockwood.
My parents had taken me to Jerry Lewis films all my life and I knew Dean Martin from his TV variety series and records on the radio. It was only in the early seventies that I began to become aware that they had been a team. Over the next few years I would learn more and more about them and in time become a big fan of Martin and Lewis.
Earlier this year in 2012, I finally sold all of the PEANUTS books mentioned here.

I still have a huge collection of Peanuts paperbacks. I would buy one every time we went to Venture, our local discount department store. Most people would dismiss them as simple comics, but I really learned a lot of culture from Peanuts. Charles Schulz was an intelligent man and had deep understanding of human behavior. I'm also convinced my vocabulary was greatly broadened by reading his strips.
