Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rod Whigham for January 11, 2010

Now that’s how to make your kid run away from home to live with her pizza-flipping boyfriend.

It’s good to see Cassie’s father finally smile! Little concerned about her mothers fixation with pain though. Scruffy

Yep, Razorback made the call. Four months from now, Cassie’ll be living in a fourth-floor studio over the pizza place, pregnant and with any college dreams vanished. Swear to God, hundreds of thousands of parents pull this garbage, and it never, ever, ever works.

My wife and I already have our routine down if our daughter wants to date someone we hate. We’re going to gush all over him like he was the epitome of manhood, insist he come over for dinner, insist he come along on the family outings, all of that. We figure he’ll be history in ten days.

Aren’t the Corman’s the family that hosted the party and the kids got into their alcohol stash? The birds are comin’ home to roost now my friends…

Could Cassie end up being the first five month pregnant girl to lead Milf on a big run through the state playdowns?

I like Cassie’s moustache and the patch of hair under her mouth there in Frame 1. Do you think she grew that or is it a paste-on?

Sometimes it is we the readers who would like to slash our wrists……or better the wrists of the self proclaimed “creators” of a comic strip that started in 1958………………

This strip has, in the past, inspired political and religious diferences, now child-rearing philosophies. Pretty heavy stuff!
