Peanuts by Charles Schulz for June 18, 2022

oh, won’t this be fun

Marcie, the Captain is always called Sir.

powered by imagination!

The Sopwith Camel only had a range of 217 miles.

You’re trusting Marcie to navigate, PP? Are you sure you want to do that?

Ironically by the way you play act as little girls, you can’t claim yourself to be a woman yet.

Poor character, Marcie. I’m sure real-life kids can relate.

Marcie Johnson has been lost all her life? What could she mean by that?

Someone actually built Snoopie’s flying dog house. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MTnnXhcmSgY

Let’s hope they don’t run into the Red Barron. Then again, their route is a bit off the Western Front.

Transcontinential from California to the west side of Michigan?? They’re missing about 1/4 of a continent.

It’s odd that Marcie is playing along with PP’s delusion. She is much more level headed that her friend. After all, she was the one who finally convinced Patty that Snoopy was a beagle and not “a funny looking kid with a big nose.”

I’m feeling kind of lost myself these days, Marcie.

They are going to get splinters.

Oooooo!! ‘Powderpuff’. Seemed ok when I was a kid but now, I think that would annoy me. Times have certainly changed.

“Powder Puff Derby”. What a ridiculous nickname. It should’ve have been called, the “Pretty Pink Princesses Air Pony Ride”. Right, ladies? ;^)

If you’re only going as far east as Michigan, that’s well short of transcontinental.

Better get a jacket and some goggles. Might get cold up there….

Okay, I think Patty and Marcie have reached a level of insanity comparable to that of the kid with the tiger doll.

Not sure which is worse. Marcie as navigator or Peppermint Patty as pilot.

Marcie just admitted to having always been lost. AND THEY HAVE NO MAP!!!!! How can she navigate without a map? This is ‘74/’75 NO GPS!!! (Well, maybe the military was tring out early GPS but it certainly wasn’t commonly used by civillians back then).

And since when is Peppermint Patty a pilot. She can’t stay awake in class long enough to learn something a little simpler like spelling or reading (considering them simpler to math, grammar, science, or history, not nesiccarily terribly easy as is). No way she’d stay awake long enough to learn how to fly!!!!!
