Daddy's Home by Tony Rubino and Gary Markstein for March 19, 2023

For snowflakes we are and unto snowflakes we shalt return (in stead of dust)?

Elliot must read Calvin and Hobbes.

Tony asked, about 5 hours ago

When was the last time you made a snowman?

When there was still snow, produce not that expensive and coal affordable.

I wonder what happened to Frosty to have ‘died’?

Calvin has a rival…

Diamond Lil is very creative regarding Snow People, too.

Would that it were. 20* here in the south this morning.

My daughter’s snowmen were nowhere as creepy as that.

Does Calvin or Lil live nearby?

It’s the thawed that count.

Last rites for winter tonight!

We’ll miss him, he was a jolly fellow.

Thanks Tony and Gary, funny…

Ghosts of winters past…

Someone’s taking a page out of Calvin’s playbook!

Vague idea I made one with housemates in college. Only sure of making one at about 7 or 8 about twice the height of the gallon bucket I used as a base, with a sprig from our Christmas tree for hair. Did in pre- or early teens make a turkey and a rabbit from Thanksgiving and Easter snow, and posed the former with music for “Snowbird” and the latter with a snow basket. Generally more into making snow forts.

alas, poor Frosty…we knew him well…

Funny
