It's hard to argue ...


Every time I read a new C&H strip (or re-read one that I've already read for that matter) I can't help but awe at the brilliance of Bill Watterson.

AND to think he can do all this through a 6-year old and a stuffed tiger toy is splendid!!!



And oh, Its "song of the week" time! This time, its an amazing track by Def Leppard called Long Long way to go!

Stay happy, have lotsa fun, and cheers from me and Hobbes! :D

I've been reading C&H strips everyday since I can remember - it comes in the paper every single day! I especially like it when Calvin does crazy things with his hair, like put butter on it and make a mohawk! :) Or when he needs to have a bath ;)

I've wondered what Calvin will grow up to be.
If he grows up and gets an IT job, Dilbert sure's gonna lose his!
:0) cheers!

DEEPTHI,

Me tooo :D You bet, there isn't! :)


ADITI,

Oh, winter holiday collection huh? His snowmen are a wonder to look at; each one of them at his creative best :)


MUSH,

I'm sooo happy there are soo many C&H lovers :D. Do oh please do post pictures. :)


DevilM,

I started reading C&H only for the past 6 years I think. Not prior to that, but I sure am glad I'm doing it regularly from the newspapers. His bathing sprees and his attitude at the dinner table are among his best too :)

Miss Iyer said...

SuperN,

Yep, I do. Those were the days, but do you also remember the fact that I kept reminding you that June 11 is my birthday and that you can go on and surprise me with a gift of the entire C&H collection? :-P


IDAH,

Yep, love that look of his! Both Calvin and Hobbes have this way of bringing out the child in us regularly :)


CM,

The three book edition is available everywhere CM. June 11! June 11! or even much earlier if you want to surprise me, that is :D LOL


ToothLess,

Umm, considering how he perceives work and politics at the age of 6, I'm sure he will :)

Thank you for dropping by!
