    Calvin, if you don't, who will?

    You're welcome, @SueSueDio... By the way, is your user name a Genesis reference?

    Kind of... my mum used to call me "Sue-Sue" when I was little, and the song always makes me think of that. The username SueSue was already taken, so I ended up with this one instead! :)

    I wonder how Calvin got the door to the bathroom open? His costume has no arms...

    It looks like a clipboard and pen - maybe it counts as working? :)

    Valid point. On the upside, Calvin remembered his line.

    Such descriptive language... a barracuda in a high school senior suit...

    Just so I get this straight... the school had a play but Calvin's mother stayed at home, laying on the couch reading a book instead of going to watch? The play was apparently open to parents as Calvin invited his father last week...

    I'm not sure the duties of motherhood extend to being publically associated with a child like Calvin - or is that just me?

    By far the greatest comic strip of all time. I have 3 books of their comic strips. Almost named my first kid Calvin because of these.

    Perhaps I'm unusual in that I figure anything expected of a mother is likewise expected of dad... and as a dad, I wouldn't hesitate to be associated with my Calvin(s)... although sometimes are more difficult than others.

    I absolutely agree with you - what is sauce for the mother goose is sauce for the father gander, having no Calvins of my own the thought that I might have to deal with one like him fills me with horror. I'd very happily make room for a Hobbes though. :smile:

    No doubt about it... the barracuda in a senior suit has Calvin's number!
