At the moment, I have plans for 2021 is only ONE comic con... Calgary Expo on July 30-Aug 2. Given that how Canada is processing the rate of vaccine shots here ... the fact I am one of essential workers but I expect get mine by summertime maybe. The government is going with Heathcare employees, doctors and homecare workers as first with vaccines. After that, next is senior citizens in retirement homecare centres with high risk in health conditions. My mother is going be in the third phase as a senior citizen in good health (she told me she thinks will be in April to get vaccines). So you can see how slow the vaccine process is up here. I saw news on U.S. process ... it’s crazy how slow it is! Thus I am not planning go to any comic con until well into fall season. I doubt SDCC will pull up without masks required. I am eyeing on ECCC in Seattle to go ... but this is on wait and see. Baltimore likewise.

Calvin & Hobbes is among the top 10 strips I enjoyed to read the most in my life. Far Side, Peanuts, D. Tracy, Bloom Country and few others. They were running daily in newspapers delivered to my family house for years and years until Newspaper stopped being delivered then. I was there the day when the last C&H strip was published, then realized that was it. A tear come out. some years later my former LCS had the hardcover slipcase set of C&H up for sale. I brought it and read all through. Loved it. I still saved much of my Sunday newspaper comics in storage ... someday, I will bring them out to light to read. Bill Watterson, I understand your view and your decision ... but I still miss the two best friends!

With my lousy connection... can’t do the take on books I keep missing. Might as well enjoy the entertainment here for now. I’m about well tapped out anyway.

Well, train your bladder to pee at supersonic speed!

Ye Gads, that costume... blah! To quote someone’s paraphrase... Glad I don’t read modern comics at all.

I’d pay admission if the original owner is still alive and tell the story what it was like riding on this scooter and felt when it fired sitting on it. What a steel rod between legs!

Can't go wrong with a submachine gun snowmobile, now can you? I believed one person had already built such this motorcycle with tank track some many years ago. Just not with a machine gun through. It was cool to see it in action in a video.

Here I am ... let’s see what you have.

Thank you for this one. I have #1 and 2 and now this #4. Just need find #3 copy. I stand corrected... looked up my guide, I need #5 and 6 to make a full set. So I am halfway up.

Thanks for teaching me a new slang, catrick. When Jolly explained what it means ... I like it so will save it to use when I need it.
