Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for January 08, 2011

To seek protection perhaps will help!

He really did, Dad.

Calvin has no control over the snow goons…

Isn’t Dad bigger than the SnowGoons????

Your going to have to do better,because I think Dad is just about to clear the side walk and drive way. If your snow man moves to the wrong place Dads going to get angry and get rid of it.

Good morning east coast. Calvin, hurry up and build the fort. Can’t waste time talking to Dad.

IT has a mind of it’s own, Dad. And it’s pure evil!

Good Morning, Marg, Mike & ♠Lonewolf♠

The problem can’t be that objectionable if it’s an excuse to build a snowfort…

Get Dad to help with the fort.

Calvin, I’m sure if you explain the situation to Mom, she will help you. She is so understanding.

Perhaps a snow woman would help distract the goon, preferably with a couple of well packed snow cones.

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

Maybe they could get the goon to go to work. Would that be a snow job?

<< Yesterday, Florchi said: …. Thanks for comment re the crossed balloons. From my recollections, a favorite tiger aphorism was the one about a tiger’s tail being like a necktie for the butt… >>

Hi Florchi. Sorry, but Calvin also said that one:

It’s fortunate that we have Bill Watterson taking notes when some of these things are said by Calvin, so that we can check the record years later.

One Willie Peter round, or even one good Thermite grenade should do the trick. Just stand well clear of them, and don’t get any on you! (And keep the fire bottle handy as well!)

<< Wednesday, BuzzDog said: I seem to recall that Frosty melted when he was coerced into running around. Come to think of it, another story I was told as a child taught me that making tigers run around a tree causes them to turn into BUTTER…>>

Hi BuzzDog

Some tigers used to act that way in bygone days, but today it has become exceedingly rare for anyone to see a tiger running around a tree and then turning into butter. Over time, natural selection has pretty much eliminated that behavioral tendency from the gene pool. The tigers who spent their time running in circles around trees found that they were always too dizzy to reproduce.

–Hobbes

Now my question is, how will thet defend the snow fort if they can’t throw snow balls? Maybe they should consider hot salt water balloons? That is if the outside temperature hasn’t fallen below -21° C.

Seriously Dad its not his fault this time…. its the Deranged Mutant Killer Snow Goons Fault!!!!!! (I just love saying that)

Everybody makes normal snowmen, it’s fun to use your imagination and make something different Dad!

Once the snow fort is built, what’s he gonna use to defend it? I hope not snowballs…

In todays Lio’s strip it shows what happen to his snow goon that he has had last couple days..

Hobbes, I’ve signed up just to say that I love you!… =)

Hello from Brazil, where Calvin and Hobbes are popular, too!

Just go inside now and have some hot chocolate to drink while you ponder, Calvin.

Normality is a point of view, What is normal for me, May not be normal for you.

Right, MihirAsher…..normalcy is in the eye of the beholder. Dad needs to realize the facts.

Grog said: IT has a mind of it’s own, Dad. And it’s pure evil!

Given that it’s now got two heads, that makes it twice pure evil … which is much, much worse!

Where’s a flame-thrower when you need one!

i love calvin and hobbes. somebody call the sun!!
