Telling Calvin to use his imagination can be a dangerous thing. Mom didn’t imagine what might happen. But at least now Calvin has one thing that he can cross off his bucket list.
Click here: Peanuts (August 12, 1982)Click here: Thatababy (March 30, 2012)Snoopy always had a vivid imagination, even when he was very young. Here is Charles Schulz’s eleventh Sunday Peanuts strip:Click here: Peanuts (March 16, 1952)
My parents had an instantaneous cure for “boredom”: chores. You never said you “didn’t know what to do” because they’d find something for you to do. At about age 8 I asked for a toy kitchen, like our neighbours’ kids had. I was led into the real kitchen, and put to washing dishes and cleaning cupboards.
When i was about 12 or so, he got the idea to put some ice down my shorts one summer.
A few days later …. well lets just say that kids can be VERY inventive.I put some crushed ice down the back of his shirt. This shirt just happened to be tucked into his pants. during the process of him trying to get the ice out, the ice managed to make it’s way into his shorts.
Thus, was the beginnings of the “Frozen Wedgie” born.
A few years, later…..
Ice(preferably CRUSHED)….Insert at back of a tucked in shirt.Grab pants(and underwear), pull AWAY from the body.Shake shirt with ‘Ice’ hand.Preform standard “wedgie” maneuver, making certain to allow pants to slip out of grip while still holding underwear.
Run fast, run far……
The “Frozen Wedgie” in it’s most developed form yet.

Mom doesn’t appreciate being cooled down on a hot summer’s day?

Where does Calvin live? There are hills, a forest, a pond, and meadows all within walking distance!

At least he had short term fun. Mom could use another bucket full to cool down.

Is this where they got the idea to douse Gator Aid on coaches at the end of football games? If only Calvin had gotten a patent!
