Calvin and Hobbes

One day many years ago I got into an elevator. Went up a few floors, the doors opened and one of the biggest White dudes I've ever seen steps in. He was tatted up to the neck and down to his fingertips, had a shaved head, and a scar behind one of his ears that was evidence of some damage he took somewhere along the line...

I looked up at this cat and nodded, grateful that I had my folding knife on my belt but knowing that it wasn't gonna do me much good if this cat went off. He nodded back, pointed at my newspaper and asked, "Did Calvin find Hobbes yet?"

"No!" I smiled, then he smiled, and we got off on the same floor discussing how good that comic strip was.
