Merry Christmas

I just want to take a moment to write and wish you all a Merry Christmas, and to say thank you for following and reading my blogs. This will be a short one. I heard something very interesting yesterday on KTIS, the local Christian radio station that I wanted to share. Do you know where 70% of all people hear the Christmas story for the first time? Linus VanPelt, from Merry Christmas Charlie Brown. You remember the part where Charlie Brown says can anyone tell me what Christmas is all about. That’s when Linus comes on stage and tells the Christmas story. Here is the 1 minute 50 second You Tube link if you want to watch it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DKk9rv2hUfA.

Anyways, the Producers urged Charles Shultz not to put that scene in the Christmas Special, and Charles response was, if I don’t do it, than who will. The last thing that I didn’t notice even though I’ve seen this scene 100 times, is that it’s one of the very few times in any Charlie Brown episode ever, where Linus puts down his security blanket. I just though that these were some really interesting things to share. Merry Christmas.
