    I thought you couldn’t get a cold from getting wet in the rain, go figure.

    I caught a cold simply because I had no heat in my apartment during seasonal change to Fall.

    Add to that being indoors and in closer contact with others who are probably all germy, especially kids…. :)

    In case anyone is interested, next Sunday marks the 27th anniversary of the debut of Calvin and Hobbes. It is a date well worth remembering.

    wouldn’t it be great to be a kid again, and play in the rain. splashing every puddle, rolling in the mud, and not a care in the world.

    Though I can relate to catching cold in the rain, I could never relate to wanting to play in it.

    We had rain last night; the first time in weeks (we’re in the middle of a terrible draught), with thunder AND lightenting – a fully loaded show. Sat on the deck and inhaled the aroma of wet leaves and dirt.

    Everyone should always play in the rain…just not with nine foot metal poles (can you tell I used to be a pool man?).

    That picture was from 1967. I just found out the details last summer. They were in a drainage area when the storm came and got caught by surprise. Never tell dad anything.

    Different viruses predominate at different times of year. Rhinoviruses & flu viruses peak in fall & winter.

    Whenever I get cold and wet feet coming home, I have to take a hot bath immediately or I get a cold. If the rest of me gets cold and wet it doesn’t matter so much — but the feet need to stay dry.

    My nose runs when I’m out in bad weather. Maybe with all that splashing Calvin got some water in his nose. Snot anything to worry about.

    You don’t get colds from getting rained on. My family all did the last time we went to Disney World. Got soaked to the skin in Animal Kingdom and then went home on the cold air conditioned bus. All came through fine. Then last month, we went on Disney cruise for 3 days. Went in fine, came out the whole family sick for the rest of the time in Disney World!

    I think there are more colds during winter because people are more likely to huddle together to be warm.

    That’s called having fun one day & not having to go to school the next because you have a cold.
