Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for June 16, 2015

A pesticide free pest control program.

“Ask not what your colony can do for you… "

Even ants need to have places to live Calvin.

Calvin, the next Libertarian candidate for President.

Calvin, you getting payments from the Koch brothers??

It must be a balanced working together, when you do nothing for others, they will do nothing for you!

My sons help me with the computer and technical problems and I cook for them, not always, sometimes,and so it is a balanced relationship and all are happy!!

That’s a big “If,” Calvin.

Ant-ticipation.

The ant doesn’t want to move out of the anthill. He prefers to be an insectinside.

Calvin, the rabble rouser.. 8^)

@LeadingEdge & Darsan54It would be interesting to compare the amount given to conservative candidates with the amount given to liberal candidates. There is nothing fair and balanced about it.

There will always be at least one pest in Calvin’s household.

There’s no upcoming movie named “Calvin-Man.”

@LeadingEdgeWhat about the undisclosed contributions? That is far from a complete list.

I actually once had a neighbor (grown woman) who believed shouting at ants got rid of them.

Get real, Calvin. Who in their right mind would listen to you?

Calvin, you fool! You should have stood further away when you said that last part!

Calvin! Where is your magnifying glass?

I thought that everyone for themselves, and “No arts; no letters; [no comics; no Calvin;] no society; and which is worst of all, continual fear, and danger of violent death: the life of man [or ant] solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short” was Hobbes’s idea. Well, what he was arguing against. Where is Hobbes today?

Oh boy! now I can throw out my can of Raid.

And so, my fellow Ants: ask not what your colony can do for you — ask what you can do for your colony!

Sounds like that ant needs an “Agony Ant” to help sort out his mid-life crisis.xxx

Have a barbecue. Save the ashes. Sprinkle them around the trunks of your berries and fruit trees to keep the ants out (they like to farm mites in them that will weaken or kill the berry or tree, especially cherry.) The ashes fertilize the tree and break the bugs’ joints if they land in it. Inside the house? Forget poisons, bugs breathe through their skeletons and soapy water erases the scent trails ants follow: it suffocates them while cleaning your house.

Calvin will teach those Commie ants

@LeadingEdgeAmount means all contributions. Jeb Bush has raised 100 million dollars. The Koch brothers plan on spending close to a billion in the upcoming election(s). None of that is on the Open Secrets list. That’s just a start.

And then Woody Allen did the voice of Z in a movie called “Antz” that showed exactly what happens when an ant questions the social order…

Why are you so antagonistic Calvin?
