Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for April 19, 2012

With Calvin’s record and reputation, his “fate” is sealed.

It’s a good thing you didn’t bet on it, Calvin. I would have cleaned you out.

Hobbes gets the washing machine treatment.

Tigers don’t get baths according to Hobbes because “we take all day to dry, and until we do we smell funny”.

It’s not good simply to believe what you want to believe either, Calvin.

So that’s why the meteor fell on Tunguska.Well, spacetimekeeping is a wee bit iffy.

If astrology prevented baths, Avon wouldn’t sell soap in the shape of zodiac animals.

Mom is stronger!

“By Golly…”???

It is not in the stars to hold our destiny but in ourselves; we are underlings.  William Shakespeare

The Universe will NOT stand for this, Mom.

Sudies show that moms are more powerful than the universe

The sun has set on Calvin’s ‘no bath’ dreams..

to be as suave as Hobbes, what a dream

The reality of mom’s trumps the fantasy of horoscopes any day of the whole year.

Mom’s nickname: The Stars

Ever notice, when a kid’s about to get crushed by their parent, their name changes to “Buster”.

You can have your own way when you’re 18+ Calvin.

Provided of course everybody doesn’t hold their noses around you.

You’ll thank your Mother one day.

Who rules? not Pluto or any planet or star,its Mum.

And it’s in Mom’s horoscope that she will have great success in controlling her children. Interesting that in the Bible the concepts of luck, fate, accident, seredipity etc. are not there….

This is why i don’t listen to my horoscopes.

But maybe taking a bath will turn in his favor—he won’t get ostracized, won’t get infections from scratches and injuries, won’t get lice, and so on.

Mom’s horoscope read: Be prepared to assert yourself today or a subordinate will attempt to surplant your auithority.

Funny . . . Calvin’s mother’s horoscope seems to say this exact same thing every day of the year!

;-)

My key policy would be to accept one trillion dollars !

Mom, just you wait until december the 21st then we’ll see…

sigh.. hahhaha.. follow your mom, calvin.. u need to bath..

I am glad that you ENDed this before you BOTTOMED out and landed on oyur derriere.
