Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rod Whigham for August 07, 2021

P1 – Hoo! I could have had a V-eight!!!!

P3: Is Gil still talking about the job?

P1: Okay, Doc….e h l k s….

P3 I want it as much as I want you GilPa!

I admit it’s a silly thing to be annoyed by, but I wish she’d brush aside the strands of hair in front of her eyes.

P1- Gil hopes to impress Heather with his genuine Cincinnati Bengals wristwatch. Has anyone ever seen Mimi wear her wedding ring? Must be difficult to keep on with the constant suntan lotion being applied by Pedro.

Yes,oh yes, in all reality , I want you ,I mean it ever so badly . Uh , why don’t you go to the locker room and take a cold shower Heather . I’m going home to surprise Mimi. Can I give a surprise Coach ? Maybe but not today Heather .

If it means getting out of this strip? Definitely!!

Wasn’t Gil going to check out something??

Based on the strips from yesterday and today, Gil changed shirts twice while sipping lemonade. Maybe his shirt is like a mood ring — it changes color with his mood.

Oh, Ms. Burns, I’m looking at you… You wore green so you could hide. I don’t blame you – you’re a tramp! Ooh! That was right where you wanted it! Ooh Ms. Burns, you’re a little monkey woman you know that? You’re a little monkey woman… You’re lean and you’re mean and you’re not too far between either I bet, are ya? Would you like to wrap your spikes around my head?

You think this is love?Your education starts todaySo you think this is love?So tell me

How bad do you want it?How bad do you want it?How bad do you want it?Not bad enough

Vito from Goshen has put Heather’s predicament on the big board, and big money coming in on the Milford Star, Harley mechanic and Industrial solvents rep.

P4 Want what? A job that is a decent five figures to start, benefits including health, dental and retirement savings account? Why the f*** would I want a professional career when I can coach the Milford HS line for a pizza coupon stipend and live in my parents basement?

Uh, no, I want your job, or Marjie’s job, or your job and Marjie’s job!

P1, Gil facepalms so that R&W once again reach their weekly quota of giant hands.

P2, With Coach Andrews and he’s offering more than a “stipend.”

P3, Hell no, but I don’t want what I think you’re offering either!

Oh, and Heather, nothing good ever comes from Central City.

I’m convinced R&W are just effing with us now.

P-4: Tell me, Heather. Would you get to “dress up” like a nurse? With White hose? and a thermometer?

Um, Gil called Heather and forced her into this match so that they could….uh, expose Cart? Still doesn’t make any sense. Anyway, what is this “I forgot to ask if you wanted to talk about something.”? She didn’t say she had anything. But, I guess Gil’s intuition was right. But he better tell her, don’t go to that interview. You don’t want to work in Central City, nothing good ever happens in Central City!

And speaking of good things, today’s Mopped Up Thorp is ready: https://moppedupthorp.wordpress.com/

P1: “Hey, Heather…watch me spell ‘Mississippi’ with one eye…!”
