It's the Great Pumpkin!

This time of year always reminds me of one of the oddest coincidences in my life. Even more so with the Peanuts movie coming out in November. When we would go visit my grandfather as children we would always beg him to order us pizza. He would tell us that he could not order us pizza because no one believed who he was...he would call a pizza place to prove it.  We would hear him order pizza, have an argument with the person on the phone about who he was and then hold the phone up dramatically so we could hear the person yell and hang up. My siblings and I would laugh and laugh.  Like magic, the pizza would appear in a half hour. My grandfather died the week Charles Schultz retired the Peanuts comic. His name was Charlie Brown.
