如果有常看Peanuts漫畫的話不可能沒注意到Snoopy在幻想成為世界第一流作家(World famous writer)這樣的情節而Snoopy每一次的創作都一定是以「那是一個黑暗的狂風暴雨夜」開始 ("It was a dark and stormy night") 據Wikipedia上面的資料http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snoopy 這個開場白其實最初是由作家Edward George Bulwer-Lytton 在他1830年寫成的Paul Clifford中所使用 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/It_was_a_dark_and_stormy_night 而這一句開場白也因為在Peanuts漫畫中一再使用而受到注意在1984年6月時Ballantine Books就以Snoopy and "It was a Dark and Stormy Night" (ISBN 0-449-20187-2)出版了這本由Snoopy所寫成的小說雖然嚴格說來Snoopu所寫成的這部小說其實只佔了書中的一小部份這本書的封面是Snoopy如平常一樣坐在狗屋上面努力的在打字機前創作而封面上的作者是寫Charles M. Schulz 書的前2/3是Snoopy在寫作的過程在Snoopy寫了最著名的第一句It was a dark and stormy night後 Linus看了一下就說：「你的小說有一個很令人興奮的開始。」 Snoopy：「謝謝。」 Linus：「祝你的第二句好運吧。」之後還下起雨來讓Snoopy抓狂然後Lucy就出現說她聽說Snoopy正在創作一本新小說她還說她是一個很好的藝術家如果Snoopy有需要她可以幫他畫新書的封面 Snoopy就開始說他想要的封面圖畫：「要一群海盜和法國外籍兵團對一些牛仔在作戰，再加一些獅子老虎和大象在空中飛來飛去，還有一個女孩被綁在潛水艇上面，如何？」 (How about a bunch of pirates and Foreign Legionnaires fighting some cowboys with some lions and tigers and elephants leaping through the air at this girl who is tied to a submarine?) 最後Snoopy完成了作品並寄到出版社不同於以往的結果當然就是出版社並沒有寄來嘲笑的回信而是真正同意要出版Snoopy的創世鉅著接下來書中就真的出現一張Snoopy所要求的封面圖畫上面打著書名It was a dark stormy night 圖畫下方就寫著A novel by Snoopy 在致謝詞的一頁 Snoopy寫的是：For Woodstock, my friend of friends 下面是Snoopy這本書的全部內容： Part I It was a dark and stormy night. Suddenly a shot rang out! A door slammed. The maid screamed. Suddenly, a pirate ship appeared on the horizon! While millions of people were starving, the king lived in luxury. Meanwhile, on a small farm in Kansas, a boy was growing up. Part II A light snow was falling, and the little girl in the tattered shawl had not sold a violet all day. At that very moment, a young intern at City Hospital was making an important discovery. The mysterious patient in Room 213 had finally awakened. She moaned softly. Could it be that she was the sister of the boy in Kansas who loved the girl with the tattered shawl who was the daughter of the maid who had escaped from the pirates? The intern frowned. "Stampede!" the foreman shouted, and forty thousand head of cattle thundered down on the tiny camp. The two men rolled on the ground grappling beneath the murderous hooves. A left and a right. A left. Another left and right. An uppercut to the jaw. The fight was over. And so the ranch was saved. The young intern sat by himself in the corner of the coffee shop. He had learned about medicine, but more importantly, he had learned something about life. THE END 書的最後還有Snoopy辦的簽名會還說要想一個特別的簽名最後一頁就是Snoopy的手印 XD 由於Snoopy創作小說的這個情節是如此的深入民心在1976年當Snoopy!!!這部音樂劇推出時 (Snoopy!!![Original cast] DRG 6103 CD編號21471-6103-2) 當中就有一首歌是以It was a dark and stormy night為主題歌曲的名稱是The Great writer (It was a dark and stormy night) 裡面的歌詞其實大部份就是上面小說的正文部份 http://www.lyricsondemand.com/soundtracks/s/snoopylyrics/ greatwriterlyrics.html -- 歡迎各位對《花生漫畫》有興趣的網友來 PTT bbs 站上的 Peanuts 版看看喔！ *^_^* 史努比和他的兄弟姐妹：Snoopy, Spike, Olaf, Andy, Marbles, Belle, Molly, Rover 糊塗塌客和他的弟兄們：Woodstock, Bill, Harriet, Olivier, Conrad, Fred, Raymond 花生漫畫裡的主要人物：Charlie Brown, Sally Brown, Lucy van Pelt, Linus van Pelt, Rerun van Pelt, Marcie, Peppermint Petty, Schroeder, Franklin, Pigpen, Violet, Eudora...... -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 128.255.128.13

A door slammed. The maid screamed. Suddenly, a pirate ship appeared on the horizon! While millions of people were starving, the king lived in luxury. 上面三行全擠在第四格中。第三格和第四格均是打字場景 Meanwhile, on a small farm in Kansas, a boy was growing up. End of Part I 以上第五格。這時Snoopy正在看他打出來的“小說” Part II A light snow was falling, and the little girl in the tattered shawl had not sold a violet all day. 第六格，又回到打字場景第七格沒有文字，只有打字場景。第八格時Snoopy似乎遇到瓶頸，往前張望 At that very moment, a young intern at City Hospital was making an important discovery. 上面文字是第九格，Snoopy又在打字。第十格和第八格一樣，十一格和第七格一樣。到第十二格，Snoopy想：I may have written myself into a corner... 整個layout大致如下： ┌─────────────┬──────┐ │ │ │ │ 01 │ 02 │ ├──┬───┬──────┼──────┤ │ │ │ │ │ │ 03 │ 04 │ 05 │ 06 │ ├──┼──┬┴────┬─┴┬──┬──┤ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ 07 │ 08 │ 09 │ 10 │ 11 │ 12 │ └──┴──┴─────┴──┴──┴──┘ -- 火車開了......89.10.20復出江湖的莒光號10/10A次夜烏龜車，取代原復興號126/126A次高雄2300開車後，沿途只停左營楠梓岡山路竹臺南永康善化隆田新營嘉義民雄大林斗南斗六二水田中員林彰化沙鹿清水大甲苑裡通霄後龍竹南新竹竹北湖口楊梅中壢桃園鶯歌樹林板橋臺北就給他到松山啦！10次逢周一二三（永康以北各跨次日）改經山線10A次，海線沙鹿清水大甲苑裡後龍通霄等站停辦客運，山線停臺中豐原后里三義銅鑼苗栗6站並辦理客運。10/10A次於89.11.30改為36/36A次 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 59.104.25.40
