    I had such a day yesterday, nothing worked as it should. And when I saw my son in the evening he said his day was the same like mine!

    Ah yes. After a day spent contemplating the intractable problem of evil and the diabolical atrocities of war, it’s time for another discussion on snowpants. I guess Calvin and Hobbes has a little something for everyone.

    I have to admit, I was very relieved to see that today’s strip wasn’t on the topic of nuclear annihilation.

    Yes Hobbs, a little lightheartedness is in order. Yesterday was much more a super serious ethics discussion than a happy romp with a sassy scamp and his faithful Hobbs. Um, I mean the tiger Hobbs, not the commenter.

    Well, there Calvin and I would’ve parted ways. I never enjoyed getting into hopeless messes for the sake of getting into hopeless messes.

    His backup temperament is certainly different from mine, even though our core temperaments are the same. At the core, we want to be imaginative. As a backup, he wants to have fun, I want to be competent.

    Tedious, Terrible, snowpants zippers frozen with snow. I hated it! Nothing as frustrating as a jammed zipper on a coat etc. Thank heavens I am not a man.

    Not hard to figure out. You sometimes post as Jonathan k., and probably a couple of other names, always trying to compare yourself to a cartoon character who isn’t even an adult. Seems sort of sad really. Sorry if I misspelled your name.

    His classmates want him to wear them again tomorrow, too. While everyone is struggling with the snow pants, no school work gets done.

    fran650: I have never posted under any name other than Hobbes. I’m sorry if you don’t enjoy having Hobbes on this site, but I’m writing for others who do. You have been a long-time contributor to this site, and I have appreciated some of your comments in the past. I also supported you when you lost your favorite pet, your dog Kizzy. Please allow for some flexibility with the wide variety of posters to this site. The fact that we are not all alike makes this group very enjoyable.

    HOBBES: If Calvin and his buddy Hobbes can’t figure out who the commenter “Hobbes” is, have them ask me. I’ll defend my position until my computer dies.

    Hobbs, whoever you are….I really appreciate you and am glad you post your thoughts and observations.

    I thought it would be really neat if you actually were Calvin’s buddy Hobbs…..but no, that would be asking too much.

    Glad to have you here with us.

    HOBBES: I think my son, a MAC whiz who lives 600 miles away, has put so many safety features on my computer that I can’t do some of the things others can. He said he would drive down sometime this spring and fix some stuff. I’ll probably put up one avatar and have it the rest of my life.

    PS: He can control my computer with his in IL through iChat, but he is a new divorcee setting up a household,has a job that takes him out of town a lot, and has custody of three children when in town. I try not to bother him.

    Only when a stuck zipper in your snow pants prevents you from becoming “Stupendous Man” is it aggravating. If it happens while in school and it makes you the center of attention, then it’s the greatest thing to happen ever!!!!!
