… at least we have to deal with this for only a few months?

Terrific. It’s going to take a few decades, but we can hold out hope that one day Chief of Staff General Talley will convince the President of the United States to call in an air strike on Milford.

“Off we go …”

Ok, this story line is getting old already ,in all reality !

By my Talley, that’s the 4th stupid joke about it so far.

Attention! Everybody salute squadron commander Hollis “Zoomie” Talley (Ho) and congratulate her on her appointment to the Air Force Academy – NEXT STORY!!!

P1.5 Tevin: “Grab my joystick and I will give you flying lessons, you can’t be chocking in the cockpit.”

Will she learn to appreciate the triple option?

Tevin has already become bored with Kianna

Military academies accept (like other schools). Appointed? Who made the appointment?

Only Hollis I ever heard of was our dry cleaner when I was a kid.

Somebody needs to tell that dingus you don’t salute indoors.

Wow and I thought Zoomie had something to do with Zoom classes. I should have known no pandemic in Milford.

Hmmm, as I recall I predicted Chance going to a Military Academy. I wonder if R&W had already written the future strip with him going to McGil. Hey, no fair stealing my idea without even a shout out to the bloggers!

I am loving this story already! Could be the best sorry arc yet!

“..at ease Claxton..”? Like she’s playin’ into this goof’s mockery of her future plans? How about “…get lost, tool-bag…don’t you got something to go choke on?….it wasn’t funny when dumb and dumber just did it and it isn’t funny now…”

How does everybody know she’s going to the Air Force Academy? Did she stand up on a table in the lunchroom and announce it?

I predict Tevin plays basketball and chokes; missing a free throw to tie the game with no time left on the clock

Zzzzzz…..

One receives a nomination to a service academy from either one’s representative or either senator. One also has to fill out an application to the academy. If the nomination is received and the application is accepted, one receives an appointment to the service academy (from that academy).Go Navy! Beat Army!

What happened to Tevin’s hair? Did he walk into a laser beam in Science class and it sheared off the right side? Good thing he wasn’t a few inches more to the right or he would have gotten a lobotomy.

And speaking of lobotomies, you probably need a lobotomy if you have no interest in reading Mopped Up Thorp.
