FoxTrot by Bill Amend for September 05, 2010

You can get in trouble for watching TV all summer?

This is Jason; he doesn’t merely watch TV all summer. He watches TV, and then attempts to put into practice the things that he learned from it.

You don’t want to know what he learned from it.

Probably a model rocket ship mishap gone too far. Wonder if Marcus’s paper is similar…

Did this make anyone else remember the transcripts of the Nixon tapes?

Looks more like the Eye of Osiris to me.

Jason’s destined to be an attorney.

Jason’s destined to be an attorney.

Or the biggest client of one!

jailhouse lawyer, most likely

Hey Jason, do what all of the rest of us do and did LIE! It is good practice for future life like annual performance reviews and the like.

Aren’t grades a disclosure?

I was thinking (6 hours ago) that Calvin was going to be Jason’s lawyer some day and would’ve said so, but my Internet connection chose that very moment to cut off.

Foxtrot has so many parallels and references to Calvin and Hobbes that it would be pointless to list them here. As for today’s Foxtrot, “hacking CNN’s teleprompter” (which he did a couple of years ago) would have been good to black out.

I wish I’d have thought of that when I was in school. I always felt like writing “None of your business” when I had those assignments from nosy teachers.

Wikileaks??? Looks like Jason has a worthy opponent this year!

Hmm… I see a great future for Jason as a Democrat in Congress.

Surely that boy has a friend who files for Freedom of Information Act requests. Got one back once that had only the adjectives readable. Ah, redactibility. Wouldn’t we all like to redact parts of our lives…

Sometimes, Jason doesn’t pay attention. “… try this at home.” “Please!”

I thought it was government stuff.

What did Jason do?
