I love this! First of all, I love that you have a blog! How did I miss that?? Anyway, my favorite "random fact" is that Charlie Brown's father was a barber. My paternal grandfather was a barber! I guess I met him, b/c there are photos of me with him, but I don't remember him. He died when I was about one year old or so.
