Peanuts by Charles Schulz for August 29, 2012

“Sydney or the Bush” again.Why don’t we all start using it, see if it catches on.

Poor Charlie Brown! He’s trying so hard to be a good brother!

funny. but why?.

That’s women for you! They don’t fight but they can sure start wars!!

Who is Sydney?

Clearly, she has been talking to Linus.

From Wikipedia: "equates with such terms as “Hollywood or bust” to mean staking total success or failure on one high-risk event"

Hey RobertNowall, you watching? You said the phrase would return. Just a little faster than you predicted. No Aussie mates here?

stupid girl..

I’ll take Sydney. I’ve had enough of Bush. George, that is.

Sydney, Australia or “the bush” (wilderness). Lol. Not sure the origin of this phrase, just its meaning.

You know what I like about Peanuts? It’s not political. Thanks for ruining that ebsan – with incredibly outdated political commentary, even.

Sydney or the Bush = ‘All or Nothing!’ interesting..

Sydney Biddle Barrows was the Mayflower Madame. Bush referred to VP Bush, who ran for President based only continuing the Free Love for Patricians instituted earlier by the GOP. I was in Washington DC for the Reagan years because the GOP really knows how to party, while the devout provide a cover of respectability. Ah, but I was so much younger then, I’m older than that now.Th

Ha! I thought the comic strip someone posted yesterday as a comment, was today’s.

Time to call in Annie from The Meaning of Lila.

The quote is quite famous in Australia, so much so there is a webpage devoted to it. http://www.sydneyorthebush.com.au/

Last week, Linus said “SYDNEY OR THE BUSH”, this week, Sally says it.

@BigChiefDesoto

Don’t you mean Sally doesn’t fight wars? Lucy is a girl, and she’s always fighting.

Turn the other cheek, Sally. Sydney or the Bush!

;)

Turn the other cheek, Sally. (The one on your face,that is.) Sydney or the Bush!

;)

Do you still have that letter?

We did.And we gave Schultz the idea.Not bad eh?
