P1 Hate to say it Beard Man, but you is definitely over your head if you think you is gonna oust GilPa. In the meantime he is gonna take out that Stop sign.
P3 Pretty cool retro in box, don’t see them around much any more and I love the art work!!!
P1, Don’t be sorry, Chet, we’ve been saying that for years.Of course, after you run over the crossing guard it’ll be you calling somebody daddy. Maybe Del Bader.
P2, No one knows that better than you, Charlie.
P3, Monday, Chet starts buying up billboard space.
Axis powers unite! While the Valley Conference season drags on, the Bismarck Century Patriots just won the North Dakota class AAA high school football championship last night.
I bet Marty will tell Chet to fetch some water and then turn on the mic without telling Chet and let Chet hang himself with his own words…oh, wait…never mind
P1 – In over his head? Seems like a really dumb comment to say about someone who’s coached this team for about 50 years.
P2 – Wow Charlie, I guess you don’t think much of your own team. Sounds like you think Milford can’t be expected to win if the other team is any good.
P3 – So Chet calls Marjie anonymously, and disguises his voice so as not to be known. Then he calls Marty and just flat out gives his name. So much for trying to hide his agenda.
And speaking of agendas, I’m sure you have Mopped Up Thorp on today’s agenda. Time to cross off reading today’s strip:
Well, it seems we all suffer from short term memory loss. Just a couple of days ago the conversation revolved around an unknown friend of Chet that Gill could talk to about…well Chet. I’m betting this weeks allowance that Marty is the one that finally gets Chet to back off and I bet he does it without calling him Dad.

I wish this strip would hire a decent writer. I read the old Gil Thorp collections and wonder if today I’m reading a parody.

In over his head? Were the Germans in over their head when they bombed Pearl Harbor?
P1- I hope none of our commenters are out for a walk and depending on Chet to honor that stop sign.
P3 – Chet and Marty hatch their scheme to start an anonymous billboard campaign to oust SCC Gil

This development means at least three more weeks of this dumb subplot.

P3- Looks like Chet the Jet has a lot of neglected work to do in his “IN” tray, due to his Mary Worth like meddling.

Chet is obviously an alien. He has the secret alien code sign on the dashboard computer of his car and also on the wall of his office.

Darn! Now I’m really worried that Gil Thorp is going to lose his job, and soon this comic strip will be called Urban Meyer.
