Peanuts by Charles Schulz for December 11, 1972
Transcript:
Sally stands in front of the class and smiles. She says, "My report today is on dinosaurs . . ."<BR><BR> Sally holds her arms out and continues, "The largest dinosaur that ever lived was the bronchitis."<BR><BR> Sally says, "It soon became extinct . . ."<BR><BR> Sally explains, "It coughed a lot!"<BR><BR>
That’s actually “brontosaurus”(DID I spell that right? I mean, I always have been such a good speller, but even so, some words do confuse me, every now and then), anyway, that’s really the term Sally meant to say, for the species of dinosaur, in question. And no, it did NOT die, from “having coughed a lot,”that was where the "pun"came in.
