On this week's Sunday Funnies, we find ourselves thinking about Snoopy's feathered friend Woodstock, from the Peanuts strip.

Our neighbors' dog appears to have a Walter Mitty-esque life not unlike that of Snoopy. Since his owners went away for the weekend, we felt a little sorry for their dog, who was left behind. We briefly considered getting a pet bird so it could play with him. Naturally we decided to look up what kind of bird Woodstock is exactly, which led us to a few minutes of intense research that resulted in the discovery that it was never actually made clear what kind of bird Woodstock is exactly. It's just as well, since it also appears our happy little neighbor dog's owners were only on a day trip. Looks like we're just going to skip the whole pet bird thing altogether.



Here is a swell 1970's friction vehicle toy with Woodstock selling ice cream.
