Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for August 14, 2021

Ball State alum?

Eh. I attended a certain university. My loyalty is to that school. I’ve been a season ticket holder in their games, singing with the school chorus decades after I attended. I’ve a hat and a T-shirt and a jacket (and had a backpack) with the school’s logo/colors and/or name on them. But that’s not the university from which I graduated.

“Mrs. Thorp? Why are these three highball glasses monogramed ‘Gil’, ‘Mimi’, and ‘Pedro’?”

OK, so she was asking about “BSU” and he evasively answered by talking about the jacket. So what? Last time I checked, Witness Protection didn’t pay enough to cover a country club membership, meals and greens fees every day.

Legal name changes are a matter of record. Name changes for witness protection programs are not… Our ‘Carter Hendricks’ informed on his Mafia dad? Informal changes of name to make it easier to run a golf hustle seems a bit extreme. His company is going to hire him with no résumé or background record? Maybe daddy runs the company – and should pay sonny boy a little more so he doesn’t have to hustle.

“His real name is Keri….and he was born in Milford!!”

well, this “story” should eat up all of next week. Then what, the authors leave it to start a new story about Gilpa hiring a female assistant football coach?

P1- Occasionally, Mimi shows off her figure. Pretty impressive for a 70 year with no muffin tops. However, she looks worn and aged from the neck up today. Should have had that Ponce de Leon elixir before Heather came over.

P2- Remember? Ask Gil what he had for lunch yesterday.

P3- Observation about Cartman. He probably wears his sunglasses above his forehead, sans hat like Carl Peake. The douchebag look.

The lack of suspense is killing me.

So what? Do they really think that the chumps he gambles with care about his background?

No mention of THIS Carter Hendricks until two years ago? What happened to the OTHER Carter Hendricks? Was he a part-time babysitter for the Thorp twins? So Cartman has an alter ego or assumed a new identity, big whoop, who cares? If he’s horning in on Vito from Goshen’s livelihood he’ll be sleeping with the fishes before two a day football practices start. Maybe some time in October.

What happened to the stickers on her laptop?

He’s really Gary Player and he has been sneaking into Gil and Mimi’s anti aging machine

He created a new identity to fleece golfers for $20 a round in Milford after getting caught in Goshen 2 years ago, He started in Central City.

P1, Hi, I’m Mimi and I’ll be your server tonight.

P2, About what happened to your fingers in P1?

P3, You mean the one that was blue and is now burnt orange, Heather?

P-1: Mimi sports her husband beater shirt and (stretch?) sweatpants.

P-2: Rem mem, mem, remember, member, member

P-3.5: You should see his snow suit!

Nice to see Heather either has super hacking techniques or has CIA clearance or something. Nice how easily she can search Federal databases (I assume) to determine Carter Hendricks doesn’t exist prior to two years ago. Simply googling isn’t going to show up a person’s history necessarily.

And speaking of googling, you don’t need to google to find today’s Mopped Up Thorp. You just need to go here: https://moppedupthorp.wordpress.com/

I am actually starting to believe the crazy witness protection storyline might be true. Incredible

In all reality , Carter is an undercover FBI agent brought into Milford CC to out hustle a group of interstate hustlers hustling country club golfers nation wide . Will Heather and Gil blow Carter’s cover , inquiring minds want to know .

P 2: “… wellll…. There’s this thing now called ‘the Internet’ …”
