Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for September 28, 2015

Wow this should be a banner day here in Thorptown.

P1 has Dora spouting Shakespere while throwing around some random hands. Plus the balding fellow in the front row. P2 has Dora trying to speak like the hip kids do. And in P3 we have “The Bonfire!” Led by the random hand and fist pumps all around. Meanwhile a kid in the back row is grabbing the drone camera to take to “The Bonfire!”

the kids in p.3 look like lemmings about to follow a washed up reality skank to a bonfire… “Thank you Ms. Dobbs, can I have another….?”

P2- That ever present Clark Gable stache grabs me. How naïve of me to think Holly would not need a ’lectric shave moment.

Good grief!

I think it’s time Holly met the peacock.

Bon fire?.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WqukWXviyew

Was Tybalt the name of Juliet’s dog? I don’t recall this from Monarch notes (cheaper than Cliff’s as I recall).

Whats the over/under on Martis impending bender?

Local HS’s have played 5 or 6 games, colleges have played four, NFL three………. Thursday is October and Milford is finally opening the season. State play ‘downs’ will coincide with the Final Four.

Interesting to start with Act IV of R&J. I’m pretty sure we read it in order.

Wow, somebody thinks a TV show about high school kids learning Shakespeare will pull in ratings? Odd Bodkins. I hope Marty doesn’t get too close to the fire, his breath could start a conflagration.

Come, Watson, the game’s afoot! This Holly D. ( an obvious alias) is using High School Lit class to create an audition tape for the Canadian Straford Festival. The kids are being used. “What fools these Milfords be.”

Oh, and Mr. Darwin, if that doesn’t “grab you”, see me after class and I’ll see if I can…

Who’s the rich girl in P3? I assume she’s rich if she wears a shirt with the day’s date on it every day. And speaking of rich, your life will be just a little richer if you read today’s Mopped Up Thorp.

I’m with you there, Epic. But alas, I know first thing tomorrow, I’ll be back, staring at the train wreck.

If this had happened in my high school, I wonder if my mom would have had enough sense to transfer me to another class. Of course, Dad would have scheduled a parent-teacher conference.

Why are the signs in the English class in Arabic?

Holly seems inordinately interested in the Milford sports program… I wonder why???

I’ve been wanting to know why there is a picture of framed breasts next to the camera in pnl 3. Or am I the only perv in the room?

tcar-1: how’s this for the story theme song? Burl Ives singing Have a Holly Jolly.

Here’s a more obvious pick: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aSmZfnax1yw
