Yesterday I compared my waiting for the Stryper concert to a favorite Calvin & Hobbes comic strip.

As promised, here is the next set of comics in the story:

The Future of Calvin and Hobbes

I saw this post on Digg and absolutely had to share it.  I’ve been a HUGE Calvin and Hobbes fan ever since it was in the papers.  I still read the collected books to this day.

No other comic has touched me as Calvin and Hobbes.  I actually choked up a little upon seeing this picture!  I was never so proud as a dad as when my daughter Bekah started reading through our Calvin and Hobbes Collection.

If you don’t have the books, you can view the entire collection of comics here.  Someone has lovingly scanned every comic strip and sorted them by date.

Man I miss Calvin and Hobbes….

Cursed With A Thin Beard

I empathize with Calvin’s plight.  I’ve not shaved for over a week and this is all I have to show for it:

What’s going on here?  This much jaw hair grows on my brother’s face in just about 4 hours.  Don’t I share the same gene pool?  So I ponder, like Calvin, why am I cursed with a thin beard?  It just doesn’t seem fair!

What kind of beard would I grow if I could?  A big viking beard that could be braided would be awesome!  Something like Zakk Wylde….

I mean, what screams “metal god” more than long hair and a big beard?

So, What Is The Answer?

C’mon all you math nerds, I need your help! How is Calvin’s dad’s statement true? Something with the radius of the record? I need to know!
