Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rod Whigham for June 18, 2022

Mr Hamm forgot who, where and when.

I don’t think you’ve reinvented yourself if you do the same thing you’ve always done, only anonymously.

Time for Gil to tip off Heather!

“What . . . why . . . how could you?”

“Well, I picked up the phone, dialed Coach Thorp’s number . . .”

Gregg’s dad has a legitimate beef since the first thing Gil did was tell Kaz. Who will tell someone else, of course.

Go to Milford to reinvent yourself, under the care and protection of wise Coach Thorp, far better than Mary Worth or Luann DeGroot. Or, having Dennis as a neighbor. He is such a menace.

Wait until we learn he plagiarized Greggggg’s medical reports from his eye doctor and has been deliberately enabling his son’s impending blindness hoping to cash in on the million dollar accidental death insurance policy which, coincidentally, pays double were he to perish in an obscure baseball related demise. Oh the tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive,

“What … Why … How Could You?” Didn’t Adam say that to Eve? Or most recently, Johnny Depp to Amber Heard?

In all reality , who would have ever thought that Gil would know anything about journalist villains ?

P4 Dadddd Hammmm gropes blindly around on the floor to find his left eyeball that popped out of his head from the EES episode triggered by Mommmma Hammmm’s revelation

P2.5 “Yes and while hiding here, he got his hands on the leaked Supreme Court opinion document that upheld Roe v. Wade, changed the conclusion and leaked it to the mainstream media. Who knew the outrage and reaction it would spark?”

Does RW have short-term memory loss on colors ? Ms. Hamm went from lavender long-sleeve to olive to black short-sleeve. And who stole her necklace ?

He’s upset because Gil called collect

Where is Red Forman’s foot when you really need it?

Points all around to those who were right thinking the guy with the goatee is a villain.

I feel a little embarrassed that Gil knows who Cooke and Glass are; and I will have to google them.

|Haha! Ole Marvin Hampster is in for it now!

P3- As WMFD plays Hank Williams “Your Cheatin’ Heart”, Burl Ives, err Mason Hammbone, joins the EES Club and Elizabeth Warren, errr Mrs. Hamm responds with feel, felt, found.

P 4 ( Mrs Hammm voice): “… well you should probably pack your stuff and leave now…”

Gil is worse than a wrinkled old nosy chismosa who can’t mind his own business. The whole world will know after his coffee groups and bookclub meetings.

Yep, this idiotic story line about the blind pitcher, with the sub plot why are the Hamms hiding, are going to last for another 6 weeks

Just wait until word about this reaches Rob Howry, who will put it on a billboard leading into town. “Welcome to Milford, literary larceny capital of the USA, where Gil Thorp forces blind kids to play dangerous sports!”

No problem, guy. No one’s ever heard of you. This is Milford, where they only read the Sports section if they read a paper at all.

Meanwhile, Heather publishes her story about Greggg’s father who identifies as a writer.

Hey, Mr. Hammmm, pay attention. She didn’t tell Gillll your secret. She just hinted for him to Google the name of someone that “no longer exists”. No need to go all EES on her. And speaking of going, you should be going to read today’s issue of Mopped Up Thorp.
