Trust Hobbes to engage in an irrelevant exercise in the middle of a crisis. Say, you don’t think he’s one of those politicians who are supposed to be getting us out of the present economic mess, do you?
jaydubya: Your little ditty was penned by that all-time brilliant cartoonist, Kliban. It was sung by a guitar-playing cat folk singer in a volume of cartoons called “Cats: One Hell of a Nice Animal, Frequently Mistaken for a Meat Loaf.”
hobbs was easily distracted, after all he is a stuffed animal,so it’s all good, he’ll fix the transmogrifier in plenty of time before mom comes in the room
He he he he! Poor Calvin. And Hobbes won’t forget the stupid mice! I do love his face in panel 3, and Calvin’s growing horror and frustration. He he he!
JFrisch419, didn’t realize you were following Joy & I. I have been busy lately. I get on here often from work and the past couple days, I’ve actually been doing what they pay me to do :-)!
Joy Good morning, (or afternoon) it’s 12 Noon now!
I am sure Hobbes loves to aggravate on Calvin for not changing him back to normal with that transmogrifier. I still think the transmogrifier is malfunctioned. Tsk, tsk! Calvin, speak, “Who! Hoot! Who! Hoot!”
(spoiler) for Macush: mum can’t see the effects of the transmogrifier; but she will have an alternative to mice which will at least be less unacceptable to Calvin.
All this talk of Kliban’s mousie song reminded me of Mason Williams (yes, I’m OLD) and his Them Poems. E.g.:
How ‘bout them tummy gummers, ain’t they dummies?
Havin’ they fun of gummin’ their tummies.
Gummin’ them haunches out of they mind.
Runnin’ ‘round shoutin’, “It’s tummy gummin’ time!”
Lookit them tummy gummers, lurkin’ in the yard,
waitin’ for a jelly belly, catch it off guard.
Them hell-bent tummy gummers, ain’t they dummocks?
Runnin’ through the neighborhood, gummin’ them stomachs.
How to be a tummy gummer, no way to shun it.
Grab an abdomen and rear off and gum it!

Is there any economic mess going around ? Good grief, I didn’t know that.
Leonardeuler over 15 years ago
Hobbes should try one of the following things:
Replace the solar cells in the transmogrifier. Add a few drops of oil. Shake well before use.
rentier over 15 years ago
It’s better not to try such inventions,hope the transmogrifier will work again, poor Calvin, hope you will not have to eat mice!

Calvin was on “Family Guy” on Sunday.

Here’s one that’s even worse that atyush’s: What’s the world’s most common type of owl? A “Teet Owl” (saying it out loud helps!)

I believe HOBBES knows how to turn him back but is having some fun with his old buddy before doing so. Yea HOBBES!

CALVIN think on the positive side. You can fly and you can stay up all night.

A screech owl!
musicnut1986 over 15 years ago
I’m impressed that Calvin can actually fly, as demonstrated in the third and forth panels. What an imagination Calvin has.
