    I tried to put a go comics link in the previous reply, but it didn't work. I'm trying it again. I hope it works this time.
    http://www.gocomics.com/calvinandhobbes/1986/11/17
    I'm not sure why but a while ago, gocomics decided to try to prevent people from linking the cartoons they host. It's not impossible to get the URL for the images... just a bit more difficult...

    Okay. The link was to the page on gocomics, but the link was not in the post at all. I guess I did something wrong when I posted it.

    Does anyone remember a Calvin and Hobbes comic where Calvin was looking for his marbles? He tells Hobbes that he lost his marbles and that he can't find them and Hobbes says something like "everyone suspected that" Calvin different realize what Hobbes meant until he is in bed
    I have been trying to find that one. I saw it in once of the books years ago, but have not been able to find it. It is not in any of the books that I have.

    That's the one! Thank you! This one is another favorite. I think I have had times like that.

    I think there was another one similar to this one, but I don't remember what it was about.

    Has anyone tried playing Calvinball?

    Two minutes at near warp speed? That is quite a hill, regardless that it isn't in the Andes...

    I don't understand why Calvin isn't happy to have someone so enthusiastic to greet him daily!!

    Maybe... just maybe... Calvin doesn't mind being pounced on as much as he claims...

    This is so me. I have one cat that used to always greet me at the door (while the others don't) and of course get under my feet as I was trying to just walk in the house. Recently, I started coming home, and he wouldn't greet me anymore...I'd find him sleeping on the sofa or hanging out in the bedroom...and I was like WTH? It's like I'm yesterday's news... :/

    Does he offer any explanation or just keeps snoring?

    He eventually looks up and acknowledges my presence, but not much coming to greet me or leg rubbing when I get home anymore. He has made up for it, by pushing additional things off the coffee table, night stand, etc in the middle of the night to tell me he loves me and wants to play with me then...his new favorite middle of the night activity is lifting the top of the empty glass candy dish lid by putting the ball of the lid between his teeth and then dropping it on the dish to make sounds. Argggghhhh!

    Calvinball is a far superior game to baseball...

    My daughter did track & field for years as a thrower. Shotput, hammer, discus and javelin...

    I got her t-shirts with themes like these...

    I've never thought of croquet as being a gentlemen's sport. It's more about discovering just how rough is the lawn in your backyard.
