This just made laugh to the very end! Definitely my new favorite! I can’t wait to show my granddaughter later when she wakes up. It reminds me of the races on what they called, “Field Day” at our elementary school. We’d end up in a heap laughing so hard from pulling each other back like that!
Note the pirate skull and cross-bones appearing in the 3rd from last panel. Waterson’s hand must have been guided by the Fairly Subtle Motions of a noodly appendage.
I saw an episide of Red Dwarf last night where the Cat accidentilly “transmogrifies” Lister into a chicken. When he tries to reverse it, he then turns into a mouse. Kryten, the android, then gets turned into a human version of himself, left to deal with his new senses - and lack thereoff, and, of course, his new equipment.
I immediately thought of C&H the moment “transmogrification complete” was said by the ship computer, but it was a very funny episode.

I never realized that the 50 yard dash was such a contact sport. A classic strip indeed.

This gives me new hope that the health care bill will eventually get through Congress. Thank you Calvin and Hobbes!

Yay! Their dash races have as much of an abstract undefined (non-existent, but awesome, goal as calvin-ball!

None of the above believe they cheat a lot. How sad.
