Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for August 23, 2013

Wait… Did Gil and the rest of Milford just get punked !!

hahaha- see? Senility is just a big joke! Now can we get back to high school sports?

What school? How much is a lot? For whom? Who is holding the cash?

Hah, I think Desertdwlr called it :)

People with Alzheimer’s can have periods of clarity, usually followed back a worsening of symptoms. I watched this in my grandmother for about 8 years until her death. At different times I was me. my younger brother and a few of my uncles, or a total stranger as she progressed through the disease.

Misplaced thought balloon in P3.

Now that Marketing savant Gil Pa knows what the MHS community likes, take it up a notch and include the ladies on the card. Throw some mud in there and charge $10. There is a pattern with the Thorpalcholics. More action in the strip, more comments, more laughs. Keep up the pace Mr. Rubin.

Sharp as a tack! But I would worry about those anger issues.

Okay, I’ll admit it. This storyline was better than a bunch of spoiled kids at the Milford Country Club. But I did miss seeing all those images of folks on the golf course with calf high socks.

How do you say’ Bobby’s dream from Dallas" ?

I like how Thorpe’s hair was all tousled in front in P1, but in an instant magically morphed into its perfect normal shape by P3. And nice to see Herk finally gave up the wild print shirts and moved on to a classier bowling shirt.

Rubins scientific study as detailed in this strip proves that wrestling is a cure for dementia. Nobel Peace Prize anyone… holla’ If you can smelllllllllllll what the Herk is cooking.

Let’s do it again Thorp. Now let’s go have a Subwich Sub. I"m buying. (Does anyone go to the Bucket anymore or is that just for the kids?)

In all reality, not a bad Summer for Gil, he curefd an old mans anger and dementia issues along with raising lots of money for the school.

In the 0.2 seconds between P2 and P3?

Classic writing…we were all duped!

Change Gil’s comment in P1 to “Great match, Herk, and thanks for the post-match shower,” and Herk’s response in P2 is much funnier.

Gil and Milford were Kayfabed

Ok, 2 a days start Monday

Yeah, he was the starting left guard on the 1961 team
