For a kid with no interest in girls, Calvin sure seems to want to see female-themed horror movies.

April 3, 2021. I just found in a storehouse, a VCR player and a stereo from the early 1970s. Also the stereo plays 8 track tapes, cassettes and LP vinyl records. I looked on ebay and the whole lot isn’t worth shipping. Anyway I’m reading Calvin and Hobbes during COVID 19 quarantine. I’m 81 now and feel like I am a time traveler, with so much new technology. This strip is dated October 1987 and I’m watching and commenting on a device that was just coming into use.
