When it does arrive, Calvin will have forgotten all about it. Of course, the life span of an intact beanie with Calvin can be measured in microseconds.
I HAD a beanie like that. From the days of the cartoon, “Beanie and Cecil” and Beanie had a helicopter beanie. You could buy them in the toy store. You’d pull the cord and the propeller would fly off the beanie-hat. It actually worked pretty well and I loved it!

This is why I had a difficult time believing in God as a kid.
If he listens to my prayers, how come he wouldn’t give me that video game I wanted?

As I recall, when it did come, it wasn’t quite what he expected it to be.

Calvin’s yelling in the wrong direction. Form your own conclusions.

It takes a thing called patience, Calvin. Even God will not give you what you want the instant you ask for it.

So what did you guys order from the back of a cereal box or comic book when you were kids? Me, I ordered a Jolly Green Giant rag doll.

No Amazon 2nd day delivery for me either as a boy in the ’40s and ’50s.

If he’s like me, by the time the beanie comes he will have forgotten all about it.

I guess it’s good to discover the futility of prayer before you waste you life acting on the belief that it has any effect.

I actually had a dream last night where I got the beanie, it made a nice breeze that kept me cool.
