Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for September 19, 2013

I find crossword puzzles Bad for that too.

Thank you Calvin, that is a great idea.

I like crossword puzzles.

Where did my comments go? Anyway, idiots they are – not.

Now that is how you think outside of the box

And you just know what he’d do with a square peg….

I do crossword puzzles every night. Thats how I fall asleep. Good brain exercise.

So THAT’S the trick!

Calvin does his own thing. He lets no one stop him. Lol

“Chick” is also another possibility

LOL! That one caught me by surprise, Calvin! (And the laugh felt good………. :)

Why do they make you write so small? It’s a real puzzle.And, for Puddleglum: Maybe it’s a cross-bird puzzle.

Here’s a Peanuts strip drawn by Charles Schulz only one year before his death. That’s Rerun, Linus’s little brother, working on the puzzle with Snoopy. Schulz’s beautiful pen lines had become irregular because of the continual shaking of his right hand, and he had to use his left hand to steady his right hand as he drew very slowly. If you click on the enlarged version, you can see each movement of the cartoonist’s shaking hand on the back of Rerun’s head, especially in panel 4. Nevertheless, Charles Schulz still drew amazingly well in spite of his handicap.Click here: Peanuts (January 10, 1999)

That’s not really a great crossword clue. ;)

Rerun’s brother, Linus, had more of a knack for puzzles when he was young:Click here: Peanuts (July 18, 1955)

Snoopy once figured out the name of a bird, also. This turned out to be a bird who flew both horizontally and vertically:Click here: Peanuts (June 22, 1970)

This was a bit long, but enjoyable and had many chuckles. I feel I must annoy some of my friends and share this with them.

Quail.Eagle.Snipe.Drake.Stork.Goose.

Humng.

@AlexikakosJust a guess, but the humor of George Carlin may have been involved in your English essay.

Try ‘robin’ Calvin

One day Calvin’s spouting post-graduate algorithms; the next day he can’t match his socks. Any chance he’s bi-polar?

I do jigsaw sudoku online each day, and dream about numbers in boxes!

You park on a driveway and drive on a parkway.

This comic always makes me smile!!

My problem with crosswords is that I come up with a word that fits and is perfect. Later I find that other perfect words aren’t fitting through it. So I look at the answer and my word was wrong. The word that was right is one I’d never even heard of before and needed to get a dictionary to find out what it meant! Why not just use the common word?

And when he gets older, they’ll yell at him to think outside the box. Boundaries are for wimps.

Five-letter word for “Bird”? Try “AVIAN”.

I’m more of a wordsearch or letter fit kind of person.Calvin’s Mum sure has some ‘cross words’ though.LOL xxx

Hi TrulyEpic0914. When you ask a question, you need to check back later for a reply. This is the third time you’ve asked me this question in about a week, and I’ve replied the two previous times.P.S. If you don’t see this reply, please let me know.:>)

@Hobbes,The Argyle Sweater is ’moo’ving!

@Hobbes,Cross-bird puzzle? That’s ‘cuckoo’, …’loon’y, even! (Snagglepuss) jkWell, at least you didn’t break any ‘cardinal’ rules for puns, and you weren’t plagiarizing (‘robin’ someone else’s work), or even ’parrot’ing it. Since you are not only clever but experienced at punning, I can’t call you a ’bird’geoning punster.

@Alexikakos,I don’t usually like long drawn-out comments, but this one is worth reading.In a bunch of odds and ends, the last one is THE END!

Squeeze Blue-footed Boobie in there too.

G-I-R-L-! Put a little english on that one.

Of course reality will adjust to you, and not the other way around Calvin. A common malady for every person. It’s just a matter of degree.

Eagle…but that’s only 5 letter ;)
