A RIGHT NUMBER
In one of the PEANUTS cartoons, Peppermint Patty calls Charlie Brown on the telephone. “Marcie and I are about to leave for camp, Chuck,” she says. “We’re going to be swimming instructors.” Marcie takes the phone and adds: “We just called to say good-bye, Charles. We are going to miss you. We love you.” Charlie Brown’s little sister, Sally, asks, “Who was that?” Standing there by the phone with an ear splitting grin of satisfaction on his face, Charlie Brown answers, “I think it was a right number.” From Peanuts, by Charles Shultz, June 6, 1991
