Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for June 16, 2014

Are there a lot of Spaceman Spiff moments?

I almost feel sorry for the kid…

Calvin you’d better spend your last few minutes of fun before you get in trouble for life.

At least he missed the fire hydrant. Could have been worse.

Calvin, you are soooooo in trouble…better enjoy your freedom because once your parents’ car is discovered in the ravine, you are going to be grounded until you’re 18! ;)

Calvin’s always been ahead of the other boys…

It was an accident. Calvin didn’t mean to ditch his parents’ car.

@Tacopielvr: Yesterday I posted a lot of information on Bill Watterson.

Wow! What a ’What I did on my summer vacation story’ he’ll have.

I need to drink more coffee before I read this stuff: the Fire Hydrant. Does it look like it’s sprouting bosoms??

Too late now Calvin knows what can go wrong.

it innocence kids

If he just shuts up and isn’t seen, maybe nobody will blame him. Nope, not with a kid like Calvin in the house.

@ Hobbes: The Reply function doesn’t work for me today. RE your comment: Reminds me of Bill Cosby’s riff on the time he got his tonsils out at six. “My life passed before my eyes—ftt!—it was so pitiful, I had to ask for a repeater.”

Run away! Deny everything! Maybe Mom will think she forgot to set the brake & left it in neutral, or it popped into neutral.

What — nobody puts the car in “Park” anymore?

6 years flash by quickly!

Kill the popups that can’t be closed. Boo

Best line ever by Hobbes.

Missed the fire hydrant! Whew!!

This storyline is great!

From yesterday: Actually, it didn’t quite happen that way. Superman simply flew into a clockwise orbit around the earth at a speed faster than light; at that relativistic speed, time itself began to move backwards, in accordance with Einstein’s Theory of Relativity. From Superman’s (and our) perspective, it looked as though the Earth were rotating in reverse, but that was only the visual effect of Superman’s flying backwards in time — it did NOT mean that the Earth actually WAS spinning backwards.

After reading all the comments, it only supports my desire to go back in time and live in the late fifties or early sixties! One of my favorite films is “Pleasantville”, where the characters return to a previous time where things were well, pleasant!Of course, the story reveals things are not always so “pleasant” in Pleasantville; but, I do think when things were simpler, it was a better time for all of us.

Too bad Calvin’s situation isn’t like in Halo multiplayer, otherwise the car would just respawn in the driveway.

To make it complete the car needs to catch fire now. A wrecked car is one thing but a burning wrecked is a lot worse.

Calvin is a piker. My boy wrecked my car when he was three.

@Perkycat: Newspapers now print the comics so small that it’s difficult to appreciate the artistry. Viewing the comics on a large computer monitor helps, but there’s nothing quite like seeing originals of comic strips up close at an exhibit or in a museum.
