There is a tree in a cemetery in Quincy, Illinois that has a series of knots on it. Some people look at it and see no shape.However, if they have seen the statue of Jesus holding a lamb in another cemetery, the resemblance becomes clear.It has been called the Jesus Tree.(There is another tree a couple hundred feet south with knots that some people have perceived as – well, lets just say not so saintly a figure! )
Daily temps for 8 out of the last 10 days were over 100° (it was 106° this past Saturday!). Any and all clouds (inscrutable or not!) that can help cool things down a little bit are most welcome! And if they just happen to deliver a few “raspberries” along with some much-needed rain??? Well, then, who cares?!?! I’ll still take it!!!!! ;-)

When I was Calvin’s age I didn’t know what an “omen” was.

Nothing? Really? How about the fulfillment of the portent? Might that not be worse?

Is there one for Hobbes too?

…an inscrutable omen for an irascible character! Does ontogeny really recapitulate phylogeny?

Think back to the days of Li’l Abner. Joe Btfsplk: World’s most loving friend and worst jinx who alwaystravels with a dark cloud over his head.

I wait for a Hobbes cloud. Hobbes can be built especially good with clouds!

The omens say that the evil parent is serving liver and onions and lima beans for dinner.

If Obama had a cloud that’s what it would look like.

Don’t worry, Calvin. It’s only a harmless little cloud.

@Hobbes,“It’s only words, and words are all I have, to steal your heart away.”Charley Brown’s words didn’t impress Lucy, though!

The cloud is ‘under a cloud of suspicion’.What could the mean cloud mean?
Puddleglum2 over 12 years ago
Calvin is clouding the issue! It should be ‘clear’ to Calvin that he is doomed!

“Imagination, it’s funny!It makes a cloudy day sunny!”With that kind of attitude Calvin would be on Cloud 9!

Trying to “scrute” those omens is hard, man. I mean, sometimes you just have to guess….

Calvin we had clouds yesterday, we were hoping for rain to cool temps down. I think cloud did that to us. There was low rumbling and no more.

Maybe it will turn into a rubber ducky, like from an older strip.
