I’m listening to the soundtrack right now. Sweet and humble and brings back great memories of a more innocent age and a long gone America. Prayers up for its return, in some form.
TV network didn’t want the Gospel of Luke passage.
Schulz said he doesn’t do the show if it’s not in.

I always liked CB getting the littlest tree. I was a Boy Scout whose troop payed for everyone to go to summer camp by selling Christmas trees from Thanksgiving weekend until Christmas eve. After the CB Christmas special, we sold a lot of small trees the next year. 7-9 foot was our favorite selling size, then it became 3-5 feet. We always gave the church that sponsored our troop several trees, including the biggest tree that came on the truck. That was the great thing about our troop, it wasn’t about whose family had money, It was about all of us busting butt to make sure we could take the whole troop to camp. And for new troop members that didn’t seem to have money, the scoutmasters could always find uniforms in the lost and found box that seemed to fit the new guys. J.C. Penney even had a scout section in the store that had Boy Scouts Cub Scouts, Girl Scouts, and Brownie uniforms and equipment like tents, hatchets, knives, compasses, handbooks, merit badge books, backpacks, and sleeping bags. That was when stores cared about their customers.
Merry Christmas Charlie Brown!
