| The thing that most stood out to me about Charles Schultz is the

| I can't say he's an example to me because that regularity of
| quality is too far beyond what I'm capable of. At best I could
| maybe model Piers Anthony where I work constantly and some of it
| is crap and some not.
|
| All that said, happy posthumous 100 to my first ever fandom.

| My favorites: _Bizarro_ and _Rose is Rose_.
