P1 Milford CC must be having financial difficulties, the golf car is missing a windshield and has lights (for night golf a new program to generate more greens fees)! The car in question hear has a 10’ roof for people like Jaquan.
Does anybody besides GilPa remember Hadley V. Baxendale??? P3 She will be wearing the pants in that family.
I see that she either finishes his sentences or corrects whatever he says. He’ll put up with it for a while, but he will be long gone before she gives birth to their child.
It just dawned on me … what is Kaz up to these days?
P3- Whigham still having problems with his hand drawing, Jaq’s right is way out of proportion with his left and is horribly disfigured, not unlike my old Rawling’s 6 finger mitt
Yesterday Hadley was towering over Gil when they met, now she’s back to her old shrimpy self. And what does she mean about Jaquan “seeing her hometown”? Aren’t they both from Milford? Although I suppose there’s good odds that one or both of them transferred in or moved into the district during high school, since that’s how half of Milford’s star athletes arrive. And speaking of arriving, today’s issue of Mopped Up Thorp has arrived.
That should be 13 years, as HvB was the point guard on the girls’ basketball team and helping to solve the homeless Ted Pearce problem—other teams were making fun of him—in 2006, back when McLaughlin was in charge of butchering these drawings. Steve Luhm, her discarded boyfriend, should remember her. That year, he elbowed some opposing fan dressed like a hobo and cost the team the chance to advance in the playdowns. The previous year, with the help of Luhm, HvB got her dad to help Jaquan enter college somehow (without his actually applying or anything, back when high schoolers could go straight to pros, which his greedy uncle was pushing for). This was somehow connected to a crazy televised game that Milford was playing against Jaquan’s highly publicized Bishop Tardy team. In return, Jaquan had Tronix send the Milford girls’ team new unis, which they got to wear once before being eliminated from the playdowns. Her main cause that year was getting media attention for her winning team—which was doing better than the boys’ team. The following year she was seeking media attention for team again, though it was not very good, using the fact that they were small to get Margie to call them the Seven Dwarfs (forgetting maybe the number of players on a basketball team). Her name is a not particularly funny, way-inside-baseball joke about a landmark British civil case involving suing for damages, which is why the “v.” is always there.

Why is she known by the name on her credit card?

P1, Gil is relieved that it’s not his long lost daughter.
P2, Gil is part of your family?
P3, Looks like an engagement made in heaven as she elbows him in the ribs and he gives her the ol’ backhand.

Maybe the Baxendale elders are prejudiced against pro basketball players / wannabe tight ends?

P4: “…oh….I thought that you guys probably stopped by because Jaquan wanted to know if he could play on the PGA tour if he really wanted to…”

Does HVB have two different hair colors to make up for the fact that Jaquan is bald?

Just for fun, drop P1 & 3. P-2 stands alone and needs no additional snark. Enlarge and frame it. a GT classic moment
