Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for September 17, 2014

Too bad, they didn’t have Expedia back then.

Oh, oh…there he goes again! ;)

Calvin’s face in panel one!

Truth will always out, Calvin.

They’ll probably leave him right there .

Calvin never just puts his belongings tied in a bandanna on a stick when he runs away.

If not Rosalyn, his dad’s probably home by now.

Frame #1: I need a Halloween mask like that face.

Calvin tried using a lawyer previously, but he and his legal counsel weren’t totally on the same page:Click here: Calvin and Hobbes (December 14, 1990)Click here: Calvin and Hobbes (December 15, 1990)Click here: Peanuts (February 27, 1963)Click here: Peanuts (April 27, 1963)

When the going gets tough, the weak and timid, skedaddle!!

With a track record like Calvin’s, you think he’d have a “to go” back packed and ready to go at all times.

That’s one reason I back into a parking space. I can never tell when I might want to leave in a hurry.

we’ll miss you

Running away again?

Poor Calvin has lived his first 6 years in fear.

Well…as usual it won’t work, Calvin. You’re taking all that baggage with you anyway.

Also…isn’t Dad a lawyer? Guess in this matter, it would be a conflict of interest for Calvin’s dad to be his lawyer in a meeting between his other parent and a teacher ABOUT Calvin. Crosses my eyes to think how many ways of bad that could all go….

Calvin and his pet tiger Hobbes have returned from a parent-teacher conference in which Calvin’s lawyer, Uncle Max, was not present. Calvin decides to take a vacation and begins packing.

Don’t waste your life running away.

Unlawful flight to avoid prosecution…. Contrary to popular belief you can and you can hide, but eventually they’ll get you sooner or later

@Caldonia: I think part of the problem is that a message board like this is somewhat impersonal. We aren’t with each other and we can’t see each other. If someone on the street asks me for directions, I don’t begin by quizzing them as to whether they have a smart phone and whether they know how to use Google Maps. I simply try to help them by answering their question, and I’m glad to do it for them. For a message board, I like to see the computer used as a tool to help facilitate human interaction. It should not be an end in itself, where we make every attempt to use the computer to do everything possible before finally resorting to human interaction.On the other hand, all of us should be willing to learn some basic computer skills so that we don’t have to ask others the same questions over and over. Life is about balance.

@amaji: Glad you enjoy the extra comics.

These comics are horrible!No one likes these!

Ah, El Fugitivo is back.
