Go read the Cartoon Brew page. Their are friends and co-workers saying he was not like that all the time. Also, David Michaelis never met Charles Schulz.

I grew up not too far from the ice rink Schultz owned (and I'm sure heavily subsidized to keep it open) in Santa Rosa, CA. He was pretty easy to spot in the old-timer games. Does hockey lend itself to melancholy? ;) And a fanatical hockey player! I grew up not too far from the ice rink Schultz owned (and I’m sure heavily subsidized to keep it open) in Santa Rosa, CA.

I would have completely spaced this out. I also appreciated your insights into Shultz from your interview with him. I'm not sure what to think regarding the warring factions of who Charles Schultz really was, though I tend to come down on the side of those who honestly see a complex, often troubled man. It's natural and understandable that his kids would want to keep him high on a pedestal, but anyone even remotely familiar with Schultz's work really isn't surprised to find out he was a melancholy and sensitive philosopher.
