this is classic peanuts. I recall being snowed in for 4 days, with some friends and referring to to this strip. In danish the translation was better in my opinion, because Snoopy does not “sigh” he goes ” Jeg Graemmes” or ” Good Grief”

Welcome to the eighties, Snoopy. But you should no longer “boogie down” but rather “get into the groove.”

It suddenly occurs to me that Schulz missed a golden opportunity back in the mid-sixties to do a storyline about Snoopy being in a rock band called “The Beagles”.
