    I almost feel sorry for Moe... almost... but as someone who was bullied in school as a youth, nope.

    It's funny to see Calvin learning about measures which don't see much use nowadays. For those who might not recall, bushels and pecks are measures of volume (ie: size of container) rather than weight. I'm not sure why they used such arcade measures in the past. I always found it curious since it appears based off of binary numbers rather than base ten.

    A bushel is 32 quarts; a peck is 8 quarts.
    A gallon is 4 quarts, 8 pinks or 16 cups.

    Hmmm.... GoComics appears to believe an ice age is approaching?

    Meek and mild mannered Calvin... who apparently can't find a doorknob in the dark...

    I wonder how the suction cup stuck to Hobbes's fur?

    As a child of Calvin's age, I would have been scraped off the wall... We were poor and I never brought money to school because I had none...

    I don't know if Watterson came up with the name or not but there was a band(ish) called Le Scrambled Debutante. It was moderately awful... more noise than music...

    This makes me think of High School and the "music" I would listen to. Most of it was good, but some of it was just to get my mom to freak out. :smile:

    Funny... While executing his brilliant plans, Calvin will run for hours but going to town, he wants a ride...
