I think I do!"<BR><BR> He continues,"No, I guess I don't"<BR><BR> He walks to Violet, who is sitting on the floor. He says,"It turned out to be only dirt..."<BR><BR> He sits across from her and crosses his legs. He concludes,"But for one brief, exciting, moment I thought I needed a shave!"<BR><BR>
Linus does exactly the same thing in a future strip. Seems Schulz isn’t above recycling ideas. :P
