How Innovators have fun! Calvin the innovator, Hobbes realist!

On the lighter side, whilst working these last few days I particularly enjoyed a link I found on digg.com to Calvin & Hobbes 25 greatest comics. An avid fan of Calvin & Hobbes, I won’t reproduce my favourite out of ‘IP respect’ so follow the link here.

Calvin the Innovator: a Parable for Innovation 

What is so great about Calvin & hobbes is that it is a strip that operates on an intelligent level for adults, and underlying is a strong current of the innovator (Calvin), the realist (stuffed tiger) and the cynics (Mum & Dad).

Does this sound like your post-modernist organisation? One innovator, a whole lot of realists, and an audience of cynics? It’s only a matter of time before the Tao of Calvin emerges. PS. You owe me a royalty if you do it folks!

His creator Bill Waterson is a smart (and slightly subversive in a good way) guy.

My favourite little bit of Calvin-innovation is “AIEEE!! THEY GOT FRANK!!” it’s worth scrolling half way down.

Hopefully his parents don’t turn Calvin into an accountant!
