   For the sake of your sanity, Dad, stay down there.

   Well, Calvin has a good idea in hiding it, although I think mom and dad are going to notice something when water is going down the stairs, and the bathroom is an indoor swimming pool. However, on the good side, indoor swimming pool (until someone opens the door) on the bad side, water damage, and no bathroom.

   That is a tough hide, mroberts. And a indoor swimming pool in the bathroom isn’t all it’s kicked up to be.

   Every time I see Calvin in action, my kids look better and better.

   Calvin is looking rather pail; in fact he seems quite flushed.

   The water is almost up to Calvin’s waist. I don’t think the door is gonna hold out much longer.

    HEART RATE: one-ninety and rising, along with the water.

    actually Dad- the sooner you get up there and take stock of the situation, the better… you should know by now…

    Poor Calvin he knows he’s in it deep! His face in the last frame says it all.

    “Calvin, what are you doing?”
    All Dad gets are ‘blank stairs’.

    I hear parents tell their kids “I hope when you grow up, you have a kid just like you.”

    Makes me wonder what horrible things Calvin’s Mom and Dad must’ve done to deserve him!

    Happy, that others wait impatiently for the next strip, like I do!

    In panel 3, Dad’s not ‘railing’ at Calvin yet, but he will when he ‘flushes’ Calvin out.

    In panel 4,

    There will be no serendipitous discovery in this instance.

    What happened to Calvin’s hair? He looks completely bald in the last panel.

    And where did he find the buckets? Most people keep them in the kitchen or basement, and Calvin was never downstairs.

23. 

    Puddleglum2 said, about 1 month ago

    Susan001,
    Maybe Calvin’s hair has been matted down from all the water spraying around the bathroom. Even so, it’s rather surprising in one sense, since this obviously is a ‘hair-raising’ experience for Calvin.

    Wasn’t Calvin downstairs in yesterday’s cartoon?

    right about now Calvin should consider getting some religion

    The final warning that Dad should investigate? Panel Four. Calvin telling him not to. I’m glad Dad lost the “your turn” argument. He’s so much wittier than mom…..

    panel 2 bathroom door water tight. Open the door and you get a waterfall down the stairs.

    Johnnydoc, I figured. It is coming to that point though.

    The sink is spraying water, that’s why Calvin’s hair is wet and it looks like it’s raining.

    brendakraschel said, about 1 month ago

    When the answer to “Is everything alright?” is “FINE! DON’T COME UP!” it’s a signal to the parent to ascend the stairs as fast as their legs will carry them. You always know that “Fine” is hiding something the kid doesn’t want you to know about!

    maybe it’s already been said, but if Hobbes will flush the toilet enough times, Calvin could make his escape

    I’m looking for a particular C&H comic. It’s the one where Calvin says it’s hard to be religious when some people aren’t struck by lightning. It was purportedly published 11/8/90. I have been unsuccessful in finding it on this site after numerous searches which turned up nothing, even after I paid to join.

    I’ve been on some cantankerous websites in my day, and this one is in the top 5.

    I remember reading somewhere, in the early years of comics, cartoonists couldn’t draw toilets. Thankfully, times have changed.

    Re: Williams45761

    Heh, that quote, “It’s hard to be religious when certain people are never incinerated by bolts of lightning.” is from page 62 of “Attack of the Deranged Mutant Killer Monster Snow Goons”.
