Of course perspective's a bitch,
but where would we be without it...
At the time, Peanuts was evolving from a clever gag strip into a sincere portrait of what it's like to grow up. Personally, this was the decade that produced many of my favorite strips ever published. Even today, this era of Peanuts continues to tower over competition.
Although Lucy is typically remembered for her bossiness and blunt advice, this strip offers a rare glimpse at her softer side. It’s one of those brief moments that proved Schulz understood the many layers of childhood, because even if a kid might seem bossy to their peers, there's a good chance they still love dogs - if nothing else - deep down, whether they refuse to acknowledge it in public or not.

French vineyards hit by severe drought and heatwaves are expected to report a 30-year low in wine production after the country’s hottest ever recorded summer, according to the agriculture ministry. Initial estimates suggest winemakers will produce just under 34m hectolitres (by the way, that translates roughly in to 9 billion gallons, so they may wanna check the accuracy of that number) from this year’s harvest: a drop of 6% on last year, and 17% less than the 2021-2025 average.

No hurricane has formed in the Atlantic basin so far this year despite a string of tropical storms battering parts of the US and monster systems roaring across the Pacific.
And with the climatological peak of hurricane season arriving on September 10, forecasters are now watching to see whether the extraordinary lull can last long enough to enter the history books.

at the cottage up in Donegal. She told me she bought it at Tesco for 24 pounds - around $ 33.00. I've seen it online for as much as $ 70.00 here in the US.
I gotta tell ya - that was just about the smoothest drinking whiskey I've ever experienced, and trust me when I tell you I've had my share. When we went back to Belfast we went back to the Tesco and couldn't find it. I had planned to bring a couple bottles home with me, but couldn't find it at the duty free, either. If ya ever do come across it, let me know what you think of it. I think you won't be disappointed...
