Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for April 21, 2018

I received the following message from LeadingEdge. I posted it late yesterday, and for those who may not have read it, I’m posting it again:

“Dear fellow Calvin & Hobbes lovers and commenters. Because of my sudden banishment by GoComics (without any warning), I am saddened that I will no longer be able to fellowship with you. It was a blast while it lasted. I’ll focus the new found time at 2 a.m. to pursue other adventures. I wish everyone well, live long and prosper.

“It’s a magical world. Let’s go exploring.”"

LE, thanks for making C&H even more enjoyable.

I do admire Calvin’s persistence.

Calvin thinking positive!

Yeah, a clipper ship! In a bottle!

I almost never commented, but I loved reading everyone else’s. @Be This Guy, @The Calvinosaurus That Calvin Wanted To Discover, @Bluram, @Jonathanpetermason, @Liverlips Mccracken, @Laughing, @Himbear.

If it first you don’t succeed…

Lesson NOT learned.

Fireworks will be on sale in 2 months. It is time for special effects studies.

That’s right Calvin, if at first you don’t succeed, try and fail again.

And that’s how it starts. (Trust me, I remember…)

Maybe he should get a model of HMS Victory!

I remember building models as a kid (long, long ago). It was a lot of fun, but I wasn’t the best at it.

Calvin could use hot melt glue instead, but then he’d probably burn himself.

Do plastic models still need airplane glue? I thought it was too dangerous for kids.

“..lots of rigging..” I’m sure Calvin will be so very patient with all that tiny rigging.

Oh yes, a clipper ship!!

With practice you can be good at it. I’ve been practicing origami since I was 8 and believe me some models didn’t come out right the first time I tried it.

Gee, if only he’d followed the instructions…

Oh Bill… That model plane is something a kid would find to be the perfect thing to go with blowing up with firecrackers! That’s what I’d do in those long ago days…

I built models in my youth. I built the Millennium Falcon and used a wood burning wand to give it battle damage.

No more Leadingedge : copyright problems , maybe?
