You ’ve belike heard in the news that we ’re come up on the 40th anniversary of Woodstock . But I ’m not babble out aboutthatWoodstock " “ you ’ll probably hear more retrospectives on that this weekend than you would favor . Nope , we ’re going to speak about a dissimilar Woodstock " “ namely , the petty yellow avian sidekick .
3 . There was guess for quite some time about Woodstock ’s sex , but have ’s clear it up here : Woodstock is by all odds a boy . Schulz once said that it really would have been better if Woodstock had been a girl since he often functions as Snoopy ’s repository ( and if that rather sexist comment made your hackle climb , you ’re not alone ) .
5 . According to a 1995 airstrip , Woodstock wears contacts . Your guess as to how he beget them in his eye is as good as mine .
6 . Every now and then , Woodstock emits more than just those Gallus gallus scratch marks that serve as his speech . He gives out " Z"s when he ’s kip , he sighs when he ’s exasperated , and " No" is represented by an " X" in his speech bubble . He also laughs and yaw on social occasion .
7 . Woodstock and Snoopy share a voice . Bill Melà © ndez , an energiser who influence on every Peanuts flick and especial , recorded Snoopy ’s voice by talking pure gibber into a tape recorder and then playing it at high-pitched fastness . He did the same affair for Woodstock but in a dissimilar register and speed . As a side distinction , Melà © ndez also animated for Disney and work onPinocchio , Fantasia , BambiandDumbo . He died last yr .
10 . Whoopi Goldberg has Woodstock tattoo above her left bosom . That might be more than you ever require to make out about Whoopi Goldberg . Me too . Sorry .
So , Woodstock " “ Tweety Bird rip - off ? Better than Tweety ? Or no equivalence between the two at all?I much opt Woodstock , but I ’m probably tainted by growing up in the early " ˜90s , when Tweety and Taz dominated the clothing of every tween and teen in the U.S.
Have a Q10 request?I’m onTwitterand I ’m all ear ! Err … all keys . Something .
