    Uh, Calvin, that’s closer to the After photo than the Before photo, if you’re old enough to get my drift.

    Oh, and the simple and truthful answer to your question is “yes”.

    **Good morning Marg! Good morning Fran! Good Morning L’Wolf! Good Morning Grog!**

    Why do people kiss with their eyes closed??

    @pouncingtiger: Smooch is more than kiss, it meens also hug, pet… all ways of showing love to another person in a bodily way.

    Hobbes said: ”I bet that’s why they close their eyes when they smooch”

    So did me and Tink when were kids.

    The nightlook of Mom is surely not attractive enough to bring ideas of reproduceing to life!

    Right now the odds of Calvin surviving to reproductive age are NOT looking good…

    Oh, he’ll survive, but it’s hard to imagine him getting any dates in the first place.

    Hey twpsi, is that your real picture? if so, I’m sure Calvin will forget about the bugs and stuff.

    Great comic - been reading them for years. Calvin can sure creat some great fantasies.

    Just answering some of the mail:

    Smooch is such a Hobbs word.

    The best and most creative thoughts arrive at 3 AM.

    Susie will date him - but I imagine that relationship being like two scorpions in a bottle.

    I would have expected Calvin to find hairy bugs cute, attractive even. It’s GIRLS he’d find ugly!!

    Love is when you see your spouse like this at 3:00 a.m. and see how he/she looked when your date started at 6:30 p.m.

    It’s his mother’s fault - she forgot to give Bi-polar Calvin his Melleril before he went to bed….

    They eyes are closed to enhance fantasizing about the one one would rather be kissing.

    I think Calvin would rather osculate than smooch.

    Hobbes, remember that Valentines Day comic? If you smooched Susie, would YOU close your eyes?

    Well, it’s not like hairy bugs live in the same looks-obsessed world as humans.
