Snoopy is by far the best "Peanuts" character. I remember reading some of the books when I was young. I loved the numerous personas he had, especially the WW1 Flying Ace, and as a scoutmaster for Woodstock and his bird friends.
Did you know that Snoopy has been the official mascot of numerous space programs and U.S. Air Force units? I thought that was pretty neat.
I always felt bad for Charlie Brown. No matter how hard he tried to do something he always came up short. In some ways I guess there is a little Charlie Brown in most people...including myself.
