Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for March 28, 2016

Meaning that you’re really, really lucky that I was perceptive enough to get it, because otherwise I would have picked up this barbell and dropped it on your spine.

Otherwise, she reports Gil to the principal and probably the police as well.

This story would make great AOL clickbait:Coach makes bizarre request of female athlete …Wife is brought into conversation …What he wanted girl to do.

Yes, yes it is

Now that’s a former State Champion Coach move there, recognizing how close he was to sharing a cell with Jarrod from Subway. I sure hope Marty Moon doesn’t get word of this. That could make what’s left of his career.

Gils look in P.2 is saying, “Now Kenzie bark like a dog and get out of here!”

Gil hides his disappointment really well.

In all reality, why is Kenzie lifting weights in the forrest ? I Gotta Be Me was used as a song last week so todays mention keeps it on the top of the charts for 2 weeks in a row. Anyother song have this honor ?

Kenzie reads Gil Pa like Tip Nunn read Big John Pasco. CLAP! CLAP!

“Because I have to be who I am.” Oh come on now, she would not answer that way. More likely it would be, “um, what?” Stuuuuuuuuuuuuuupid.

I think I’ve discovered one of the inspirations for this comic strip. It’s got self-acceptance (“I yam what I yam”), a physically powerful female character and a peacock (OK, a duck crossdressing as one). All that’s missing from the strip (so far) are offensive characterizations of Native Americans and Mahatma Gandhi, and spinach.

Is this ‘it’? The end? Does baseball start tomorrow? Will Jethrine or Max ever be seen again? For the answers to these and other Gil questions tune in to tomorrow……. same Gil time……… same Gil channel.

I think they missed a great opportunity by not having Kenzie tell Gil, “Um… OK, I guess?” and then show up this week in a blond wig looking like Mimi. She then goes into Gil’s office and asks, “Now am I supposed to come on to you, or to her?”

How about Gil as Brutus, telling Kenzie, “How’s about a little kiss?”

Kudos to Gil for coming up with the quick response to her rejection.

And then she got back together with Max, stopped beating people up, won the next basketball game single-handedly, and they all lived happily ever after. And speaking of getting back together, how about getting back together with Mopped Up Thorp? After all, you haven’t read it in 2 days!

P-1: I would while away the hours, conversing with the flowers, talking to the rain.I would be so merry, life would be a bowl of cherries…..P-2: Gil does his Steven Segal stare waiting for her to “try something” anything…P-3: While deflecting his inappropriate come on question, Kenzie, locked in Gil’s stair, continues to sit at the bench press chair with her legs akimbo. Peggy Lee begins to sing Heat Wave…
