Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for July 22, 2016

Ok, where did that come from?

Hammerspace.

Ladies and gentlemen, the human raft.

I don’t think Calvin would ever want to go out of a boat, giving his experience with his camping trips.

He has an answer for every possible scenario.

You have to wear a life preserver whenever you are in a boat.

That’s a picture of Calvin as a good buoy.

I don’t know why they call it buoyancy when it’s women who come with natural “floatation devices” (see Mae West). It should be called “girlancy.”

Looks like he’s being swallowed by a giant clam…..!

Pretty cocky for a kid who lets his tiger hang him over the lake on a fishing hook to whack fish with a bat.

Canadians are known for making love in a canoe….no life jackets either!

Why would he be on a boat on dry land?

Back up to July 11 and there he is with Hobbes in a canoe and NO life vest!

It looks like a pretty “big” deal to me…

A fierce gust of wind blew 45-year-old Vittorio Luise’s car into a river near Naples, Italy, in 1983. He managed to break a window, climb out and swim to shore — where a tree blew over and killed him…

Right now as you sit reading this, more than 100,000,000 microcreatures are swimming, feeding, reproducing, and depositing waste inside that area behind your lips…

Looks like it would be kinda hard to move with that thing on.

Following the Boy Scout motto of “Be Prepared”

I never learned to swim and look at me. Alive and kicking!

Here’s another piece of trivial knowledge you can share with your families over dinner:

Did you know every square inch of the human body has about 32 million bacteria on it?c/o The Book of Incredible Information

Why am I chuckling so hard right now?

Calvin I accidentally fell into a lake & if I didn’t know how to swim I would be dead. Your out of your league here little dude
