Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for August 16, 2014

A career in the making for Calvin.

I’m wondering what has become of two of our long-time posters. Margueritem and bmonk both joined GoComics way back in 2008, and both of them disappeared three months ago.Also, our friend Dha Dha from Thailand disappeared one or two months ago.

I hope Calvin’s flying wagon doesn’t result in fewer people and animals in the world.

He’s got everything figured out! ;)

@Thirdguy: I remember when Margueritem would be the first poster every morning. Later she said that it became difficult for her to stay up that late every night. Probably an East-Coaster like you. (I’m a Midwesterner, so at least I get one extra hour of sleep.)

Thanks, Gweedo. I was hoping some people were still in touch with her by email. Glad to hear she is OK. Please let her know that we were asking about her.

@Gweedo: Still haven’t met Bill Watterson in person either……..

@Gweedo: Well, I do live within driving distance of him.Actually, he draws me with his right hand……..

:>)

Gweedo, just saw your note from Marg. Thanks so much for passing that on.

How can you say this!!

Thanks again Gweedo, I am glad that she is doing well.

@Gweedo: Get photos, or ask him to draw a self-portrait.

OOOH, thirdguy from the sun,I just got that!!!!!

@Thirdguy: You rock.

@Gweedo: There is already one of us together on the Web. Just found it:

Ah…… You’re hoping to form a trio: Bill, Hobbes, and a Thirdguy.

The real world was perfection as created, what we have done with it, however………..

@Gweedo: Fortunately, through the magic of computer aging software, it is possible for us to see what Bill Watterson looks like today:

Thank you, Gweedo, for the info about Margueritum. I am glad that she is well and enjoying her hiking and cycling.

Comment #39:This has been a test of the GoComics communication system.We now return you to your regularly-scheduled comic strip.

@Thirdguy: Calvin and Hobbes are ageless.

So do you, but I don’t say anything about it.

So many want fewer people in the world… yet no one wants to “off” themselves and start the process.

There were fewer people. A long long time ago.

Other people are the only reasons why people survive.

I think it’s wonderful , that a group of people with similar interests, can find each other on a blog like this. Also, the C&H strip is delightful.

Tut Tut!

It should be against the law if nobody obeys Calvin. That’s not just my opinion, It’s Calvin’s too!

@mythreesons: You, Bill, and I will have to get together someday in the afterlife.That is, unless Bill still wants to be left alone……….

Probably bc most people don’t takes a 6-year-old seriously.

Basque?I thought that Durango was a Dodge!

Out of the mouths of babes.

@markjoseph125: Here’s one for you.Click here: Sidney Harris

Be fruitful and multiply, Calvin!.The world could use a few more like you…

Thanks, Nabuquduriuzhur.
