    Mom can already “see” where this is going.

    Calvin’s idea is creepy and cool at the same time

    I must admit Calvin’s idea does sound pretty cool.

    I sometimes think mom or dad are sibling to Frazz and Calvin is his nephew. Or mom has some explaining to do.

    I had a teenage daughter that would get contacts to change eye color for the fun of it.

    Does Mom have an at-home job? She’s often seen at a desk, writing or typing something.

    You shouldn’t tell a boy that age that any part of him is pretty.

    True Calvin. Thus the drugs and affairs and wasted money on strange hobbies.

    Nothing wrong with dreaming, Calvin. But sometimes a mom just has to say “no”. Just don’t let that keep you from having thoughts and ideas that are a little out in left field!

    I suspect Mom was involved in a heist. She stole the typewriter from Wiley’s museum.

    I’m an attorney, and I once considered getting the lenses that gave me vertical pupils, like a snake’s. I thought it’d be unnerving to people during depositions.“My God, did you see his eyes?! SETTLE! SETTLE!”

    My vet showed up at a party with cat’s eye contacts on. Very hard to talk to him.

    That’s right, Cal. Adults grow out of ‘cool’ and into ‘what the heck?!?’

    My folks finally agreed to let me get contacts when I was a senior in high school, but my dad worried constantly that I would hurt my vision. “You only get one pair of eyes, you know!”

    I’ve now been wearing them successfully, with several upgrades, for over 60 years.

    I will never forget the ad I once saw that said that you could change your plain brown eyes to hazel, green, or blue. As a brown-eyed girl with low self-esteem, that angered me beyond belief.

    I knew a guy with an assortment of glass eyes for any occasion. One had the Marine Corps emblem, another was clear with a black widow inside.

    I just discovered that kids in China (and elsewhere) are getting increasingly nearsighted and in danger of developing macular degeneration as they age all because they now spend most of their time indoors doing homework. Turns out that young eyes need regular extended periods in sunlight in order to fully develop. So Calvin and Hobbes will hopefully never need contact lenses (to see better at least).

    Calvin’s right about that one. His parents are pretty boring people.
