Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for May 07, 2021

P1: Lissen, Mister…ya better not mess around, see?!

P3: Like us, they are praying for this story to end.

P4: And, lissen, Bub, I said gimme FIVE!

The ultimate Thorp panel – a 4 hand close-up!

Intentionally suggestive or entirely unentendred?

How many “other candidates” are there? What does the job pay? Aha, more waste.

The suspense is killing me, will Burrito Man fulfill his lifetime dream of getting a seat on the School Board??? We will know sometime in the next three weeks!!!

See Zane. See Zane run. Run, Zane, run. (If his life weren’t so busy he would be the ideal candidate.)

Meanwhile , Corina stops by Shakey Jake’s Tattoo Emporium and purchases a gift certificate to give her Mom on Mother’s Day, in all reality .

Vito from Goshen has Honest Abe has the early favorite. His campaign promoting “Burn computers, not books” is catching on. His plan to have books shelved according to color is a huge hit with the interior decorator demographic.

Rumor has it that a disenchanted Mr. S. Luhm is interested in the job. His focus group says “Make the Floors Shiny Again” is a sure winner.

Will the finger pointing ever stop?

This episode of Milford Masterpiece Theatre, a Quinn Martin Production, is proudly brought to you by Colon Blow, sugary cereal goodness proudly made locally. Pop, Smak, Krackel.

My plot prediction capabilities are probably worse than Mop’s but I see a world where Abe the Babe loses his bid for a spot on the library board thanks to a massive student revolt to “Save the Library Computers.” Aided by the obligatory bonfire courtesy of CK’s mom and a rousing finish to the spring ball season where both teams finish second in the Valley.

P 3: “….my mom’s clueless and with my dad busy with the library, we will be able to drink his booze and have all the sex we want in my house whenever we want…”….SMAK!

P1, Insane Zane was in his baseball uniform yesterday. When did he have time to change?

P2, Just like the rest of us.

P3, The whole Thing family makes an appearance today. And for a star pitcher, Insane Zane has some pretty small hands or Katy has some huge meathooks.

Sha-la-la, la-la, la-la, la-la, la-la tee-da…I love the brown eyes, but I’m a little bewildered by the black lipstick or mustache……

Now sure if that’s the type of SMAK Katy was expecting. But it did save us from one of those close up kissing panels

Now, kids – you’re in a semi-dramatic comic strip. Do you honestly think it’s gonna be that easy?

P1- “Don’t jab me with that! It’s got a nail in it!”

Still no shiny floor. Mopman Held Hostage: Day 23.

In case you missed yesterday, here’s a recap. Zane raves over Katy’s play and the team’s win. Katy then informs him that her dad is running for the vacant library board seat.

Now onto today. Katy again informs Zane that her dad is running for the vacant library board seat. Zane again raves over Katy’s play and the team’s win.

Preview of tomorrow’s script. Zane will rave over Katy’s play and the team’s win, and Katy will mention that her dad is running for the vacant library board seat.

And speaking of running, you’ll probably be glad to run away from today’s drivel and run to today’s Mopped Up Thorp: https://moppedupthorp.wordpress.com/
