    I was thinking the same. I like to think the Russian “Santa” IS Santa. He is really cool looking with the nice and naughty tattoos and playing Russian Classical composer’s music. The Aussie Easter Bunny is an awesome warrior rabbit… except when he got turned into a fluffy bunny. Ha ha.

    Hmmmm. dripping water on the bathroom floor I can understand… but all the way down the stairs? As a mom, I would have been very annoyed. But then, if I had a Calvin I might have been in jail for murder……

    My youngest sister as a toddler learned to “swim” and breath control in the bathtub, pretending she was diving under all the bubble bath. We did keep an eye on her……. We didn’t have a snorkel. It makes me wonder if she would have learned breath control if she had one like Calvin…..

    When we were teenagers, my little brother when he started his growth spurt to 6’1" and his buddy doing the same growing to 6"2" would wipe out all the milk and bread in the house in one sitting, then go to the other house and do the same. My mom and his buddy’s mom complained to each other they couldn’t keep up with the two boys. When mom stopped making whole wheat bread (she had a wheat grinder) and started buying white bread from the stores, my brother complained it didn’t fill him up as much as the whole wheat bread. So she went back to making whole wheat bread. Of course both guys were “extremely” physically active playing football, hiking in the nearby hills, biking everywhere until they both were old enough to drive. Sort of explains the bottomless pit those two guys had.

    Garrison Kealer’s Lake Wobegon monologues included scenarios where everyone locked their homes and cars when the invasion of the zucchinis started… Same for tomatoes… ha ha
