i wish calvin’s my lil bro… so we can make a pact .. poor dad haa! eh hi guys! hi Hobbes! i’m new here, all the way from Malaysia. i love this strips woot! (:
Lewreader you have got to be as old as I am. But, the fantasy world of scripts like Calvin is why I like to start a portion of my day reading the comics. This was a good laff!
Tire swings are cool, unless they get wasps in them. We always used a board until Dad found two old metal seats off some damaged farm equipment. I wonder where those seats ever got to. Oh well, stay cool everybody!
You did it again, Dogsniff, you big lug. At least I didn’t call you a big nut. It’s a Goodyear when I see a one-liner every day. Otherwise, I’d be Michelin something. Michelin is really stretching it; it’s almost off the rim.
This strip reminds me on my oldest son. When he was 1 and a half year old we had no furniture in our kitchen. As wedding present I got expensiv dishes from my mother. I put them into paper boxes and piled up the boxes in the kitchen. Once I came in and saw my son on the top of the boxes, he jumped and cried “Mom, look, how fine!”, I didn’t know, should I cry or laugh! – Nearly all dishes were ruined!
No, but I do remember the babies riding around in Michelin tires. They looked a little bit like Calvin in the 3rd frame.Dad could always put on the spare….
Calvin gets his excercise removing and installing the tire in the tree. His father gets his walking to work, or at least, the train station. Dad’s co-workers will wonder about the expression on his face when he walks into the office….
I get a little bummed by the fact that it’s so late in the day (6:21pm) and there is so little left to be said. Maybe I should just start staying up late…

At least Calvin is old enough to remember leaving Dad’s inner tube at the swimin’ hole.I miss little red and green patches and a hand pump.

Dad seriously needs to join Calvin. I would. Course I woulda helped Calvin with the tire too.

But Hobbes couldn’t have helped. He didn’t even know where it came from.

Calvin takes us all back to the time, when life was full of fun, and no worries.
Hobbes Premium Member about 13 years ago
Apparently so. But then, he’s already aged quite a few years this morning.

@dry (from yesterday),Since TheAlmightyOne is omniscient, he must know ‘how old the strip is’!
Destiny23 about 13 years ago
It’s too hot to go to work, Dad. Just get into the swing of things!
Puddleglum2 about 13 years ago
@Hobbes,Dad might age a bit more if he has to ‘lug’ the tire back to the car and on the car!

Marg: My pot is dark brown and the pattern is more manifold, spirals and others.

This strip was utter genius. I miss it so much.
bmonk about 13 years ago
I see Dad is pretty tired of Calvin’s schemes. He’s so pumped up to go to work.
mikislate about 13 years ago
The next question is going to be can he put the tire back on the rim?
mrhalpin about 13 years ago
Did you ever wonder what would have happened it Calvin & Meg got together?

Calvin gets his excercise removing and installing the tire in the tree. His father gets his walking to work, or at least, the train station. Dad’s co-workers will wonder about the expression on his face when he walks into the office….

Funny how his dad automatically knew it was Calvin!
TELawrence about 13 years ago
Calvin must have used a power wrench to get the lug-nuts off. There’s no way he would have been strong enough to do it by hand.

@dogsniff,“Try to Remember”I had to stretch my memory for that one.“The name that’s known is Firestonewhere the rubber meets the road.”
kab2rb about 13 years ago
Calvin ask your dad to get an old tire for your swing. If dad can forgive you for taking his new tire off.

Hobbes asked Calvin where he got his tire in frame 3. Couldn’t be Hobbes. Anyway, Calvin and Hobbes comic strip NEVER TIRES me.
