Franklin’s the black kid. Chris Rock has a whole routine on him saying how everyone has a gimmick except Franklin the black kid. Linus has the blanket, Lucy’s a bitch, Peppermint Patty’s a lesbian… but nothing for Franklin.

## He also talks about how Franklin’s never at the parties. “Yeah, but Snoopy’s dancin’ his ass off!”

“The world ends when I die. And as far as I’m concerned, the rest of the universe might as well call it a day too.” – Matt Groening

The number kid was 5. I think he appeared briefly in the early-to-mid 1960s, then vanished.

CB and Linus were discussing him at one point; Linus determined that if he were to have a number for a name, he’d choose 3.1416.
