Cal = Igzy

[Cal]

Hi guys!

Some of you have probably already suspected that Cal, the speaker on the MyOpinionsFree videos, is me, Igzy.

I wanted to start out the YouTube channel somewhat anonymously. But I figured I might as well fess up. Sooner or later I was going to mess up and post something with the wrong login anyway.

I've been tired of the name "Igzy" for a while. It just began to sound stupid to me. So I'm Cal now.

Just letting y'all know. Same guy. Different name. Carry on!

Whatever the name, your speaking was always as clear and as beneficial as your writing. Thanks.

And, btw, "Ohio" sounds stupid at times too.

Thanks, bro. Ohio is much more dignified than Igzy tho.

Is Cal your given name, or a nick of it?

I'm awareness, but most anyone that's been around of any time at all know I'm Harold

No, it's short for Calvin. Calvin of Calcin and Hobbes is my face on YouTube.

I guess I'm a private person. :o

Doesn't have quite the same ring though, does it?

Sure doesn't five star bro.

I do have to thank you for coming out of the closet with Cal. Cal wasn't making sense to me. Now he does.

Ha! That cheered me up. I take that as a complement.

Cal, your voice is great on Youtube. Thanks for your efforts.

That was me, Ohio. My tablet disallowed me to login for a few days. Or maybe a technical glitch here? I dunno. Either way I appreciate both your voices very much!

I rejoice to see you standing and walking in the liberty of Christ.

Calvin is the man. And Hobbes is cool too.

[Sons to Glory!]

Calvin is the man. And Hobbes is cool too.The artist went out at the top of his game. In looking at Wiki I just saw he named Calvin after John Calvin: "In The Complete Calvin and Hobbes, Watterson stated that Calvin was named for "a 16th-century theologian who believed in predestination," and Hobbes for "a 17th-century philosopher with a dim view of human nature." Velly intresting . . .

As much as I understand Watterson's stand against commercialism, the one thing I wish would be allowed is a stuffed animal of Hobbes. Oh the conversations I would have with Hobbes!!

[Ohio]

Calvin is the man.

Then which is the cat, and which is the kid?

Calvin is the kid. Hobbes is the cat (tiger). Hobbes is actually really a stuffed tiger who Calvin imagines is alive. So Hobbes is actually part of Calvin's personality. Calvin is the impulsive, emotional one; Hobbes is the more mature, thoughtful one. It was the best comic ever. Here's one of my favorites:

It is interesting that Watterson named the main characters after a theologian and a philosopher! I had no idea back then, but now it makes sense considering the wit that he used in the comic strip. It doesn't seem like Watterson was a believer, but was wrestling with the big issues nonetheless.

He's a smart guy, obviously well read.

To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you, Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. Wherein ye greatly rejoice.....

We are kept by God! Glory is His.

Cal, your voice is very enjoyable to listen to on the channel. Maybe this is your calling. It for sure blesses me.

Ha, thanks! I really appreciate it.

Now, can you tell my ex-wife? :lol:

Would that I could. My husband is yet an unbeliever and so many times when I want nothing else but to never set eyes on him again, I tell the Lord the only reason I will stay is to obey Him. He blesses me abundantly, brother. May He change her heart and mind with one touch of His word!

I'm praying for you. Please pray for me, too! :thumbsup:
