Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for February 09, 2012

Ahh, the lovely Mimi and her talking ear…how I’ve missed you! GIl’s speech bubble in P2 is blocking the sign on the wall for “Broken Home Loans”

It is very clear that they have not drawn Mimi in months, has she aged 10 years or what? Ugh.

P2: Broken Home Loans 3.25% APR? Soooo….who chips in to watch Gil’s class while he plays Dudley Doowright? Looks like Lil’ Parkie’s mum is perfectly positioned at The Bank of MILFord.

Is Gil contemplating life while sitting at the kitchen sink in P1? Or is he trying to figure out which of the many “Gil” mugs to drink his coffee from today?

@grshprnh – You may not be fully awake when reporting on this strip. It is clear the reason we have not seen Mimi for so long is that she has oviously been in Beverly Hills getting nipped, tucked, lifted and otherwise “enhanced” since we saw her last. She definitely puts the MILF back in MILFord. Can’t wait for the summer season and those frequent visits from the pool boy.

So how does Gil have time to leave campus during a school day? Notice he meets with the about to be ex-Mrs. Bowen and not Mr. Bowen. Gil is smooooth.

When else is Gil going to visit? At night? Mr. Bowen obviously left Parker’s mom because of her lazy work effort and bad parenting skills. On the other hand, Mrs. Bowen kind of looks like Mr. Bowen in drag. Thorp might want to get the story straight before his usual meddling.

Gil could use some surgery on his giant, deformed left hand in P1 to at least make it smaller than his head.

or Parker might just like tattoos

I’m more dense than usual today, but it took me several minutes to realize that it’s Mrs. Bowen who works at the bank and Gil is visiting her, not the other way around. I kept wondering why Gil was there or if it was supposed to be someone else.

Check Gil’s hand in P1. He’s making the “pay me” sign, rubbing his thumb and fingertips together. P3. Are they in a basement office?

She wants to show Gil how to sink a bank shot and then make a withdrawal, if you know what I mean.

If this was Colorado, he’d have time to do a daily talk show, be the play by play voice of the Denver Broncos, and still be the best coach in the state, ala Dave Logan. Has anybody ever seen Gil teach a class?

A show of hands: Who has parents that are still together? Or who as a parent is still married?

Does it count if Lini has two moms?

“Tat tu Brutus?”
