HOLY WOW you guys have been busy. Finally finished reading through 20-some pages.
My thoughts: It is NOT going to be Ringo. NOT NOT NOT. As a Beatlemaniac, I can't stress enough how much it does NOT make sense for Ringo to play Roo. And my fellow Beatlemaniac friends have had a good time laughing at the idea too when I told them what people were saying.
And as far as the other kind of Target...I dunno what that is. Bullseyes, shooting...there's a movie called Target. And Hobbes...apart from Calvin, I've got no idea where to go with that.
Notable facts There is a small community called "Chagrin Falls Park," also known as "The Park," located on the outskirts of the village, which is predominantly African-American. The Park is located within Bainbridge Township in Geauga County. The students who live in The Park attend schools in the Kenston School District because they live in Geauga County and not in Cuyahoga county where the village is located and were drawn out of the Chagrin Falls School district when the current lines were drawn due to the demographics of the area. The Park was originally platted in the early 1900's as vacation homes for Jewish residents from the city of Cleveland. During World War I, it became home to many African-Americans who took jobs in a nearby mill. "Chagrin Falls" is a song by The Tragically Hip on the Phantom Power album (released 1998). Images of the town can be seen in the movies House Arrest (1996) andThe Gathering (1977 made-for-television movie starring Edward Asner and Maureen Stapleton). Chagrin Falls resident Bill Watterson may have based the surroundings in his comic strip Calvin and Hobbes on his hometown. For example, on the back cover of The Essential Calvin and Hobbes, Calvin is depicted rampaging through an extremely accurate depiction of the town triangle. There are also several appearances of Buckeye nuts and Buckeye Trees [Aesculus glabra], which are fairly common in the area as well as in plenty of Ohio's forests. The Pumpkin roll is an annual student event held on Grove Hill and was featured on ESPN's "The Not Top 10 Plays of the Week" . A locally famous drinking game, "Chagrin Falls", is named after the town.

Because none of those quotes are from Thomas Hobbes - from what I've read of him. And after I said this, DjjD said something about "Hobbes (who was not a Calvinist)"
Hobbes was also Thomas Hobbes, a fairly pivotal thinker. Why are we stuck on the Calvin and Hobbes aspect of it again?
I think we started off with hobbes as philospher, but switched to hobbes as cartoon cat because that 's the only connection we could find to the word "target"
These clues are too vague to get us anywhere...and even if we did guess the right band(s), how would we know? At least it's keeping me entertained until tomorrow morning...
