As a youngster in the 80's who watched the news and read the Sunday paper, including the comics, I often had a hard time rationalizing why the man who drew the "Peanuts" comic strip was also continuously mentioned on the evening news as a ranking government official always talking about foreign policy.Jochs wrote: ↑Sun Feb 07, 2021 4:15 pmPresident Ronald Reagan's longtime secretary of state, George P.

His view of what constituted a drug addict was somewhat biased.

Re: February 2021 Obituaries
Everyone's view of what constitutes a drug addict is at least somewhat biased.

I was surprised how long it took for Art's passing to make the local Detroit media.
Also didn't know that there were other official Bozos over the years.
Re: February 2021 Obituaries
Well there was certainly more than one. I'm guessing this guy probably wasn't the Bozo from the 60s. I have a newspaper article from the late 60s at home that interviews the Bozo at the time. I'll check it this evening to see what that guy's name was.
