Modern-day Calvin sorely misses his Hobbes

When I think "four-year-old boy," I almost always picture Calvin. Cute little, pugnacious kid with messy blond hair, dragging around his stuffed tiger and tossing aside philosophical quips when he's not too busy turning cardboard boxes into high-technology.

I don't picture a kid who goes to a bedroom, takes down a shotgun, and shoots his 18-year-old babysitter in an act of angry vengeance because the babysitter had the audacity to step on the kid's foot.

Jesus.
