Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for April 10, 2009

Oh boy. Roslyn is still mad.

You’re about to find out, hee hee hee.

I love how Calvin believes her. So mischievous yet so innocent.

Babysitter rules!!! Kids alwayz easy to be fooled, haha cute! cute! cute!

With age comes wisdom. Roslyn was ahead of Calvin’s game.

Gadzooks Calvin, hoisted by your own petard.

Castor oil…. Isn’t the by product of castor oil ricin?… OMG she’s trying to kill poor Calvin, call the police and the anti-terror squad!!!

lollll..

love the “scared” look on Clavin in Panel 2!!

And yeh, Rosalyn is too smart for that 6-yo bugger.

Good one, Roslyn. That took some of the wind out of his sails. Then again, a Big Mac diet. Hmmm.

After this Calvin, you will have even more reason to dread it when Roselyn babysits.

A bluffer being outbluffed.

Roselin has a few tricks of her own.

ahh good old Castor oil… we used to get a weekly dose of it when we visited my grand parents every summer when we were growing up

Gotta love Mr. Hobbes facial looks in panel 3! Don’t involve me!

But Castor Oil! …WOW! …Can’t imagine the effect on a 6 year old stomach … wait a min, my Mom use to give it to me @ 5!

Ha ha! little kids will believe anything!

Just pretend you’re a race car Calvin and cator oil poured into your engine makes you even faster as you zoom around the house at break neck speed.

Mmm yummie… Castor Oil! Poor Calvin!

Rosalyn 1, Calvin 0.

more like roslyn 1, calvin 1. don’t forget he left her out in the rain instead of opening the door. probably the only point he’ll get though. “age and experience defeat youth and skill.”

Boy, Calvin really swallows like a big whale’s mouth. Rosalyn makes fool on Calvin. Castor oil will make Calvin a hyperactive!

Calvin vs. Rosalyn … the “games” have begun!

Hee Hee, I love Hobbes’ “WE?” comment.

Yumm! Calvin will find out just how delicious castor oil is.

Waffling! Our Calvin will be a politician!

Calling the time of day number for the fake call. That sure dates the strip. All the major phone companies discontinued time of day service a couple of years ago.

You’re kidding. I still remember the number in Chicago= CA8-1212

We in the west dialed p-o-p-c-o-r-n.

Scoreboard:

1 - Calvin 1 - Rosalyn

Calvin’s against the ropes but not down….ball’s in his court….

Stay tuned!

Calling his bluff

Another beautiful egg for marguertem. Where do you get them?

Really? We still have the service here in Dallas… For ALL the area codes it covers

She doesn’t get mad, she gets even.

I hate to say it, but how many places have number to call for the correct time. Good ol AT&T shut ours down years ago!

It's still available in Lincoln NE, my home town. 402-476-9211 if you've got free long distance and don't mind converting from the Central Time Zone (DST observed).

Rosalyn plays the sort of move Calvin’s dad would make.

nargueritem is really going back a ways to when we had letter prefixes. They thought nobody could remember 7 numbers.

Rosalie is good at keeping up with Calvin.
