   So, what does a towing rider on that space ship insurance policy cost anyway?

   The Lewis & Clark reference is the point where the class was at the moment in Calvin’s day dream. It is the question posed to Calvin by Miss Wormwood during his mind’s wandering. His day dreams are his escape from, to him, the boredom of the classroom and to escape the reality of not being prepared for his lessons.

   LX013, Lewis and Clark were two famous Americans who led an expedition to explore the newly acquired American west from St. Louis (on the Mississippi River) to the Pacific back in 1803-1806. Their journals are filled with descriptions of the environment–landscape, vegetation, animals, and the Native Americans they encountered. All American school children learn about these two famous explorers.

   Imaginary heroics trump classroom assignments every time.

   Don’t do much for the hero’s Report Card tho.

   The evil Zorg King looks more like a dizzy combination of crustacean, cephalopod and mantidae rolled into one, but that doesn’t stop Spiff from looking cool in those space shades…….

    I would guess it’s because Hobbes is probably not allowed in the classroom where Calivin does his “traveling”. But I am sure he is there is spirit.

    for bmonk: a towing rider on your insurance means that you pay a little extra on your insurance policy for your space craft and the towing fees are covered by your insurance.
    
    I also enjoy the space monsters for authority figures in the class room.

    Just ROFL people! we all know explanations, but must we voice it? can we not keep it to ourselves? Ah! But that would not be practicing our freedom of speech. Hence why they speak of things in forums and ect.

    Spaceman Spiff! Y’know, why would he worry about insurance? Isn’t he six?

    Spiff’s always crashing. How off Earth did he ever get his license? No wonder Hobbes never flies with him.

    No, I know what it _is_, I just want to know what it cost!

    It would probably cost as much as Calvin values not cleaning his room… which is about the price of a little boys soul ;)

    Yo guys! Lewis & Clark were requested to travel longest trip with the Native American/Shoeshone Indian, Sacajawea, who guided the men up to Northwest lands by President Jefferson. Wink!

    bmonk, even if you and I pooled our weekly allowances, we could not afford a towing rider for the planet Zorg.

    You sucked me in on that one Bill, had to laugh out loud when I got to the last panel. Really look forward to your Sunday strips.

    I wonder if any of Waterson’s grade school teachers ever tried to contact him about strips like this?
