Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for June 30, 2016

That will take up most of the summer.

If it is like that lake at California, Calvin will take no time to drain it.

Small minds with big goals.

But were’s he going to put all that water?

If you had to empty a tub full of water to prove how smart you are, would you use a teacup, spoon, or bucket?ANSWER: You could just drain the tub

He’ll pour the water he “drains” into the other side of the lake. Brilliant!

That’ll keep him busy…

This must be new. I cannot remember, I have ever seen it!

Walk softly, and carry a big bucket…

You can tell this is first-year C&H. Later C&H would never be so simple.

Eternal optimism inspires us all.

A journey of 1000 miles begins with a single step. Calvin will need some good shoes.

Later Calvin will think so much of himself that he will think he can walk on water!

God speed, Calvin.

Very interesting. Those locks would be amazing.

If he does this fast enough, better watch out for a tsunami.

… stay here, this won’t take long.

It’s good news to hear the Californian lake is filling up. I wonder though, what Calvin is trying to achieve by emptying a lake?

Fluid mechanics prize-wining scientist in the making, and we are at the Punctum Archimedis.

Ah yes, water physics
