    That’s what happens when your imagination runs wild. Books eat homework.

    You’re right Grog that math homework is bad, but the tests are lethal!

    Seems there was a ‘book worm’ that feeds only on math pages.

    Don’t know what was worse: math class or math home-work. HATED that stuff!

    I am sure that there is a book somewhere that is written by an experienced teacher. It is the listing of the more entertaining excuses for not having the homework to turn in. There even might be a true one here and there.

    Happy Sunday everyone! Hated math as well….so now I teach English! Good Luck, Calvin. With his imagination, maybe he’ll turn into an author.

    I used to put my homework in my bookcovers after I finished it for safe keeping. I looked all over in one of my books for my assignment and even shook it and nothing. I got yelled at good for it by the teacher. I came home and was going to redo the assingment as well as the new one. I grabbed the book from my bag and it fell out of the book. I freaked out and decided the book ate my homework and spit it back up!

    I know what that’s like, one of those parables of life that Waterson is teaching us that guides my life. The man is a genius and I expect I will always be a fan. It’s the first thing I do every morning, read the Calvin and Hobbes strip for the day. I also bought the complete three volume history and most of the other books. Just sheer delight when you’re down. Always makes me smile. Now that I’m old my imagination doesn’t run so free, but Calvin’s always makes me laugh. Such an admirable quality.
