Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for February 16, 2021

Calvin is all for anything that makes him the center of attention… and also helps him avoid schoolwork.

Gotta look fashionable.

Calvin makes preschoolers look like geniuses.

Why not make life an adventure?

one flaw: how’s he going to go to the bathroom? it’s going to be messy in there

Mom is in a good mood…..how a school day separation can improve a parent’s day.

On the Calvin scale, that incident was rated fairly low.

Maybe there’s something about Mary.

If attention is good, more attention is better, right?

“If at first you don’t succeed…”

Funny! I have the same insidious snow pants.

I think that man we are supposed to be, is actually Calvin.

What is the role of a “custodian” in a US school?

What a saga. It would make a great diary entry. Maybe even a scene in a movie.

Good excuse and it’s not your fault, a comedy of errors….

The joys of going to school.

Calvin today & Wallaces school adventure yesterday… I love these boys!

Why does Calvin need to wear snow pants? He rides the bus.

Today, somebody would have taped it and posted it all over social media!

Calvin’s wierd…..

A budding slapstick artist.

Kids love “adventures” of this sort – especially the attention it brings. Middle kid rode her bike barefoot (yeah, I know. . .) and managed to scrape half the skin off one foot when she, um, applied the brakes. When the ER doc finished patching her up, she held out her foot and smiled. “I’ll be the star of the third grade.”

If it’s cold, dear … if it’s cold.

So you didn’t get stuck in your snow pants, you got stuck in everything.

Boy was that fun!

How do kids become human pretzels so easily? It’s even worse when they get entangled and start yelling for me to help them.

“There wasn’t a dry eye in the house, Mom! It was great!”

OMG ….. I just LOVE this kid! :-D

In wintertime Ohio, when it’s time to go home and load the busses, it takes at least a half hour to get a classroom of 28 first graders zipped up into their coats and boots. People who don’t work in schools have no idea about all this behind the scene stuff.

’snow use, Mom!

Just don’t go to the Janitor’s room unannounced. Moe holds his club meetings there…

What are “snow pants”? How are they different from regular pants? Floridian asking.

Turning lemons into lemonade. It’s all perspective.

Walking to school during Wisconsin winters is not one of my fonder memories!

Yet another cold-weather problem that has no hot-weather counterpart.

I got a Calvin and Hobbes book, it’s a full collection of the comics, from the very beginning to… well I dunno.

Most excitement Calvin’s had long time.

What a day for Calvin!

It was a good day…
